So, how do you react when your child stubbornly stamps their feet and declares their dream is to become an influencer, instead of an engineer or teacher?
Children today are surrounded by devices and digital services from birth, and many can’t imagine life without them. For the younger generation, blogging is not just a fleeting hobby, it’s an integral part of life, like smartphones or social networks.
Creating, maintaining, and promoting a blog is a difficult task, which requires a wide range of skills that could be useful in their future career. Writing will help your child discover their creativity and how to express themselves, providing you with a valuable insight into their life and bringing you closer together. Your support will help them take the first step to realising their ambition with confidence and security.
Blogging is like blasting off in a rocket to outer space. Your children create something new and share it with their audience, not knowing what they’ll encounter or what the outcome will be. Before any space adventure, it’s essential to check the safety and reliability of all systems – and in this case, that’s your child’s social media accounts.
Kaspersky has prepared top tips for parents and young bloggers to help them step safely and securely into the exciting new world of blogging.
MY ACCOUNT, MY RULES… BUT SECURE ONES!
A social media account is a blogger’s main tool, where they spend most of their time uploading content, sharing it with subscribers, communicating with an audience and expressing their point of view. It is the public face and the most important asset of any would-be influencer and could one day turn your child into a fully-fledged brand.
