"Blue Whale", perverts of all stripes, scammers andothers are not very good people - yes, in social networks you can stumble upon anyone and anything. Therefore, many mothers and fathers are intuitively opposed to the child sitting for days on end in a circle of virtual acquaintances. Intuition does not fail them: social networks can indeed be fraught with danger. And not only for the child, but for the whole family. We tell what should not appear on the pages of your children never for anything - for their own safety.
1. Photos with geotag
You know perfectly well that smartphones registercoordinates where the picture was taken, in the metadata. Decipher them can not let anyone, but rather a savvy person in the field of digital technology. There are many now. Therefore, you must either turn off the location function on the phone, or ask the child not to share pictures that make it clear that the family is not at home. Robbers, Wellcome.

2. Photos in the genre of “Home Alone”
Is the child alone at home? Let him brag about it after everyone returns home. Cinema something about the adventures of the hero Macaulay Culkin everyone remembers? Unfortunately, in reality such situations also occur. And they do not always end so optimistically, as in a Hollywood comedy.
3. Letters
Yes, yes, ordinary paper letters. After all, they come in envelopes, on which - ta-dam! - Your home address is listed. Often, the coordinates of the addressee indicate on the letterhead. Shocking account? Tax, come by mistake? Do not share them. Or, at worst, cover your personal information in Photoshop. You do not want to invite everyone to your place? So explain it to the child.

4. Family information
Names of parents, their place of work, schedule - thisall too no one need to know. Why would anyone need information that Serezha's dad works at Gazprom, and mom at a bank? And if the child really wants to tell the world that the father is a big boss, then ask him to publish such information not for everyone, but for friends, “under lock and key”. Or you need to make your account completely closed, which you can subscribe to only after your personal verification. The main thing here is to convey to the child the idea that the Internet is not at all such a friendly place as it may seem at first glance.
5. Revelations about personal success
To be proud of your successes and achievements -naturally. Of course, I want everyone to brag about what an awesome herbarium you gathered this fall. Or what collection of figurines from kinder surprises collected. So, the first is safe. And the second is no longer. Any information about hobbies, favorite artists, hobbies can be used to harm: knowing the weakness of the child, a person with not too clean thoughts can easily get into his confidence. The same applies to the “screams of the soul” - the revelations of a teenager that he is all bad, attract manipulators.
6. Anything they may regret
Making mistakes is normal. However, it is important to remember that the Internet doesn’t forgive mistakes; he remembers them all. And it is much worse. Report to the child that his page is one summary of the length of social life. By the way, many employers now, by the way, do not even consider a resume without a link to their social network profile. So if a person somewhere once made himself an idiot - it may not be the most pleasant way to affect his career. Therefore - fewer photos from funny parties. And it’s better to leave photos like “friends joked with me while I slept drunk” in general is left exclusively for personal use. Read on:
