The Department for Education and Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT) have recently published new resources on the ‘Kids online safety’ website to help parents and carers understand and get support dealing with online misogyny.
This new section is designed to help families and give them more confidence in talking to their children about what they’re doing and experiencing online.
The updated content includes:
*what misogyny is
*why you should talk to your child about misogyny
*spotting the signs of misogyny
*how you can support your son or daughter
DfE continues to link to trusted charities and expert organisations where families can find specialist support, including helplines and further advice.
