A simple and effective way to support children with sharing expiring content online is through discussion. An open dialogue is the best way to help the children you work with access the creative, fun and enjoyable features that expiring content has to offer, whilst keeping them safe at the same time.
- I’d like to talk about posts online that expire, but first I’d like to hear your thoughts about them.
- What is it that you like about posting content that expires or disappears?
- What’s your favourite feature in stories? Can you show me how they work? (This might be special effects, filters, adding in emoji’s, GIF’s etc.)
- Do you have any concerns about posts that disappear after a certain amount of time?
- What could you do if you were worried about some expiring content that you, or someone else had shared online?
