Read this together

Workplace training says report a suspect email fast. At home the same idea is: tell a parent or carer as soon as something feels wrong - a nasty message, a scare, a trick you already clicked.

Children often stay quiet because they think they will lose the game, the phone, or a parent’s trust. The adult’s first job is to prove that is not what happens.

Thank them for telling you. Then you decide together who else needs to know.
