What you can say:
“Hey, something got flagged as a security risk yesterday. Can we talk about what happened?”
What you can do together:
Open the report and ask your kid what triggered the alert.
- Was it a pop-up ad?
- A random link in a game?
- Did anything look dangerous to you?
Try this:
Share your experience with suspicious links or pop-ups.
- Talk about a time you accidentally tapped a suspicious site and what you learned from that experience.
- Set a rule: “If it feels sketchy, don’t click it. Ask for help if you’re not sure.”
If this keeps happening:
Try asking:
- “What were you trying to look for?”
- “Let’s figure out how to stay safe online.”
