Nowadays, teenagers use digital technologies for everyday activities like keeping in touch with friends on
social media, relaxing and doing schoolwork. There are some tips that they need to know to avoid online risks.
Firstly, keep your personal information private. Never tell a stranger where you live or your phone number. If
you’re not sure whether you should share something or not, ask a parent. You should also think carefully
before you post. As soon as a message or a photo is put online, someone can take a screenshot of it and it can
be online forever. Secondly, be choosy about your online friends. It’s not safe to meet an online friend in
person. Keep in mind that online friends are not the same as real in-person friends. Some people might say
they’re in seventh grade online but actually are adults. Moreover, don’t be mean or embarrass other people
online. Tell an adult right away if someone says something to you that makes you uncomfortable. Also, tell an
adult if you see anyone bullying or saying unkind stuff to other children.
26. You shouldn’t share your personal information with strangers.
27. It’s easy to remove a post or a photo after you put it online.
28. Meeting up with online friends can be dangerous.

30. It’s necessary to tell an adult when someone online upsets you.
