Parents are being urged to “close the space” between their own social media experience and their children’s after death of Scots teen Hamdan Aslam
Parents are being urged to “close the space” between their own social media experience and their children’s.
A number of local reports suggest that Hamdan choked during the incident involving a social media challenge called 'Tap Out'. The game is believed to cause people to pass out due to a lack of oxygen.“Parents should really try to look at the material that kids are consuming every day and try to anticipate any difficulties they might bring.
Turner said most kids will do their own safety checks on behaviours that look risky - but these may be flawed. “Unfortunately those checks can be stilted by where the platform algorithms take them and they may find reassurance that some behaviours are safe when they are not.”She said: “I would say that a positive start, for all children, would be no phones or tablets for such platforms in bedrooms.
