Ruth MottramTook my youngest through the data detox ( datadetoxkit.org ) + had a really thorough conversation about data, privacy, tech and so forth as a Christmas holiday activity.Good news: the point was taken + understood Bad news: my 12 yr old is literally the last kid out of 25 in the class to not have <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Snapchat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Snapchat</a> (technically only permitted for 13+ kids in Denmark)It's surprising to me that so many parents have such a cavalier attitude to their kids on SoMe, but maybe not so surprising that they've never talked to kids at school about <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/privacy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#privacy</a>, <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/DataProtection" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DataProtection</a> and such like.

The focus, where they have had <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/TechLiteracy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TechLiteracy</a> lessons, has tended to be on bullying, scams and grooming, which is maybe fair enough.
