Help with boundaries

DD 11 is starting secondary school this year . She has a mobile . How do you bring up pornography ? I’m not as worried she will search for it but other kids . I remember people bringing porn mags to school and us giggling. But it all seems so much worse now

I think it’s worth having general conversations about unsuitable web content - also online bullying, use of social media etc. Perhaps get a big piece of paper and go through all the things to do with owning a mobile -pros and cons - and make a mind map with her. It depends what sort of child she is really. But communication is the key I’d say.

Install a parental control app on her phone, she is very young. IMO, at her age it's a must. If it's android phone look for Family link by google, totally free. I use that and Safelagoon with screen capture, it's more complete but a paid one.
That is essential not only to avoid inappropriate stuff when she is searching something online, but also to avoid screen addiction restricting the maximum screen time to spend only in appropriate hours of the day. She could install totally inappropriate apps too, that is even worse than googling, and you can avoid this too with the parental control, a new installation request will be sent to you for approval.
Highly recommended! Better to star now having more control than at 14, 16yo when it could be an absolute necessity hard to put in place.
