October Online Safety Newsletter - Youtube and WhatsApp
1st October 2025
YouTube and WhatsApp are the major topic of conversation in this month's newsletter.
Youtube
Did you know there are different options available to access YouTube, depending on your child’s age?
WhatApp
Users need to be at least 13 years of age to use this app. With no parental controls for WhatsApp, the newsletter will explain the things you should be aware of if indeed your child is using this app.
Managing Digital Spending: A Guide for Parents is another very interesting article discussed. In an always-on digital world, spending is an ordinary part of daily family online life. Keeping tabs on all this spending can feel difficult. But teaching your child to manage their online spending is important for now and the future.
The newsletter explores ideas that can help you take control and support your child to build positive spending habits online.
