How to Talk About Misogyny
The Netflix short series 'Adolescence' has got a lot of people concerned and talking about misogyny, the manosphere, incels and much more. For parents this can be a difficult conversation to have especially when you don't know where to start.

Understanding Emojis
In today's digital age, emojis have become a popular way for young people to communicate. While many emojis are harmless and fun, some can have hidden meanings that parents might not be aware of and some can be used to express inappropriate or risky behaviour. Sometimes, emojis provide a discreet way for young people to express themselves without fear of being easily understood by adults. It's important to stay informed about the meanings behind these symbols. For a detailed explanation of various emojis and their potential meanings, please refer to the attached document: Emojis explained. Understanding these symbols and having open conversations with your children about their online interactions is crucial for their safety and well-being.
By staying informed and maintaining open lines of communication, you can help your child navigate the digital world safely and responsibly.
