« Please do something! » With tears in their eyes and fearful, children and young people have been asking me for help these last 4 years. Do you know children, young people or adults who have been victims of cyberbullying? What about sexual harassment? Digital addictive behaviour? Self-harm? Drugs via the net? All just mouse clicks, a gesture, a ¼ of a second away! All the arguments at home due to far too much digital consumption. Sound familiar? And, have you ever looked for answers, help, solutions or do you feel overwhelmed?
This book gives an insight into the actual situation in the field through conversations and courses with 40,000 children, young people and adults. Noticeably young children, children and adolescents today are very quickly victims of the digital world, PHYSICAL & MENTAL. A high percentage of girls are also victims of digital violence. The book pleads for a risk-based holistic cyber security strategy and shows a possible approach. For parents, grandparents, teachers and policy makers, the book shows simple solutions to grow up healthy in a digital world and to promote competences properly.
