It\u2019s nearly impossible for parents to keep up.<\/p>\n<p>Our tweens and teens range across a multitude of social media, gaming environments and messaging platforms where they find the connection and validation that is so vital to their life-stages. But they also encounter risks and dangers. \u2018Sipping the tea\u2019 is teen slang for side-eyeing the juicy \u2018gos\u2019 and listening in to get the latest scoop.<\/p>\n<p>Rachelle Best, parent of a teenage daughter and the CEO and founder of the AI-powered monitoring app, <a href=\"https:\/\/fyiplayitsafe.com\/sipthetea\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">FYI play it safe<\/a>, is the host of <em>Sip the Tea.<\/em>\u00a0 Across the first season of eight episodes launching on October 17, Rachelle, in conversation with presenter, Amy Maclver, tackles major themes impacting on teens\u2019 online lives, such as cyberbullying, online grooming, pornography and exposure to upsetting content. Teens\u2019 voices, digitally altered to protect identity, are prominent throughout the series, as they open up to Rachelle about their own experiences as well as share insights about the experiences of their siblings and friends.<\/p>\n<p>Rachelle says: \u201cParents listening in may be surprised at the frankness and honesty. Teens so often have the reputation for reticence or even being secretive when it comes to connecting with adults. In my journey, both through <em>Sip the Tea<\/em> interviews and engaging with children in schools, one glaring truth has emerged \u2014 our kids crave open and honest conversations about the digital world&#8217;s lurking risks and threats. They are not just curious; they&#8217;re deeply disturbed by the dangers they face online. Remarkably, many of these young people don&#8217;t merely seek protection; they aspire to help us, the adults, understand the real risks they face. Most agree that there should be limits and protections on children\u2019s online activity \u2013 in fact, they recommend these. What they don\u2019t want though, is to be judged and punished for their curiosity or their mistakes. They don\u2019t want the adults to overreact. They don\u2019t want the Wi-Fi switched off or to have their devices taken away. Instead, they&#8217;re offering us a unique opportunity \u2014 a chance for parents to reshape their approach to online safety. It&#8217;s an invitation to build an understanding relationship with their teen based on open and honest communication.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1251808\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1251808\" style=\"width: 744px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1251808\" src=\"https:\/\/caxtondigital.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/110\/2023\/10\/Sip-the-Tea_group-2-744x496.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"744\" height=\"496\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1251808\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image for illustrative purposes only. Source: FYI play it safe<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>On the one hand, there are parents who are prone to overreact and rigidly police their children\u2019s devices, and on the other are those who have their heads in the sand and believe the risks will never materialise with their children.\u00a0 \u201cUnfortunately, the \u2018not my child syndrome\u2019 is rife in South Africa. There are parents who do nothing or so little to create a family online safety ecosystem, and then blithely say they don\u2019t need to because they \u2018trust their child\u2019. However, online safety should not be linked to the trust-relationship with your child. Harmful content is everywhere, and your child does not necessarily have to go looking for it to be exposed. A child may see porn through no fault of their own, think that the trust-relationship with their parents is now ruined and that their parents won\u2019t trust them again. When I conducted the <em>Sip the Tea<\/em> interviews, I anticipated some shocking stories about online grooming, cyber bullying and pornography; what I didn\u2019t expect is the extreme cruelty that some of the children had encountered. We hear from these kids\u2019 stories, that they have been exposed to some of the most horrific scenes imaginable, which is bound to make a lasting impact on their emotional well-being.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The family online safety ecosystem that Rachelle refers to here is the use of multiple solutions that goes beyond just deploying the phone\u2019s screen time limit and parental controls to restrict access to some known websites and apps. While these play a role in the online safety ecosystem, their efficacy is partial. Latest solutions such as FYI play it safe draw on AI and ML to monitor the content of children\u2019s online activity across multiple devices in real-time. This provides parents with proactive alerts when their children may be exposed to online risks. It dynamically monitors all the content that the child engages with, including social media, in-game and instant messaging chats.<\/p>\n<p>Apart from opening parents\u2019 eyes to online risks, <em>Sip the Tea<\/em> offers a balanced view of the lives of our digital natives. Rachelle says: \u201cThere are so many benefits to teens being online. It\u2019s wonderful to hear how they make lasting friendships and find acceptance and reassurance in the digital world.\u00a0 There\u2019s so much to learn, so many opportunities to find and develop your passions and so many ways to grow as a responsible digital citizen.\u00a0 What\u2019s important for parents is to become empowered and knowledgeable. We need to understand teen digital spaces better, we need to be clear about risks and threats, and we need to be proactive when it comes to helping our teens stay safer online.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1251809\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1251809\" style=\"width: 744px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1251809\" src=\"https:\/\/caxtondigital.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/110\/2023\/10\/Sip-the-Tea-Logo-744x744.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"744\" height=\"744\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1251809\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: FYI play it safe<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><em>You can find <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/fyiplayitsafe.com\/sipthetea\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em>Sip the Tea<\/em><\/a> on all major podcasting platforms, including Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, and more, from October 17.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Episode 1:<\/strong> Teens and tech &#8211; We explore the technology setups that tweens and teens have at home.
