What parents and carers need to know about WhatsApp.
WhatsApp offers a quick, easy, and free way for young people to connect with friends and family, whether by sharing photos, videos or memes. WhatsApp requires a minimum age of 16 but relies on the honesty of the child and family to adhere to the age restrictions. If you have decided together with your child that they can begin to use it, then it is important that you support them to do so safely.
In the guide, you’ll find tips on a number of potential risks such as scams, strangers and location sharing.
We hope you find this useful when supporting your children. Thank you! ✨
