As we navigate the digital landscape, it's essential to stay informed about the platforms our children use. Recently, there has been increased usage of Discord among young people.

What is Discord?

Discord is a platform that adults and children (over 13 years old) can engage with either public or private spaces. As the name suggests, the public servers (communities organised around a specific topic or group, often related to Roblox, Fortnight and Pokemon Go) are accessible to anyone, meaning whatever your child posts can be seen and engaged with by anyone else using the platform. These are likely to be people not known to them.
