devices (e.g. through supervised access), and explain the need for the rules.

Empathise

to do, which can be harmful. e.g. risky dares, deciding to meet an ‘online friend’

• Ask your child about interests he/she would like to

explore and what he/she needs to do to develop them.

• Discuss a variety of occupations that your child may

be interested to explore.

During your conversation with your child

• Listen without being distracted. Put aside

whatever you had been doing.
