#TalkListenLearn – Senan and his mum Erin

The internet is an integral part of our lives, providing fantastic opportunities to learn, create and connect, but the online world also creates challenges.

For Safer Internet Day 2022, Webwise and the National Parents Council Primary are running a campaign to support parents in their engagement with their children’s lives online. The #TalkListenLearn campaign encourages parents to have open and regular conversations with their child about the internet. To talk to them about benefits and the risks, but also to listen to what their child has to say and to learn about their life online.

In this video, 17 year-old Senan chats to his mum Erin about what life online is like for a teenager, and what parents can do to support their children.
