‘Lots of scary things on socmed’

JOHOR BARU: Parents should not simply give their children access to their social media accounts as it can expose them to content and posts that may not be suitable for their age group, says a consumer group head.

He was commenting on Deputy Communications Minister Teo Nie Ching’s urging of the public not to click on any suspicious links to keep inappropriate content from popping up on their social media feed. “This will have a negative impact on the children’s mental health, and before long, they might be involved in sharing files and links with friends to satisfy their sexual needs,” he said.

Siraj said MCMC should step up its awareness campaigns, especially on parents, that social media is not a safe place for children.He said parents should ensure that their children are fully prepared to explore things on their own, so that they are aware of what is right and wrong when using social media.
