When it comes to your family’s technology use, creating a family agreement is a great place to start, and allows you to have conversations about setting boundaries. It’s important that you involve yourself in your child’s online world, so as a simple starting point you could ask them what their favourite websites / games are, and why they like them. The filtering options that you put in place may also change over time, as your children get older and more independent, and their technology use changes too. If appropriate, these could be reviewed as a family, and form part of your agreement.
