Are you a parent who is worried about your teenager’s online safety on Facebook? Here is some good news. The social media platform has launched a Parents’ Portal to guide you on keeping your ward safe online while using its services. The website also has sections for teenagers to refer and help their friends when in need.

Facebook is the most popular social media platform, especially among teenagers. Though it is beneficial when used in moderation, there is also threat to our safety if we do not know what not to do. As parents, we might be worried about the same. But, owing to our busy schedules, we may not have the time to go through the features of the platform and educate our children about safe online practices. So, we may resort to measures such as safety filters or complete prevention of our children from having a Facebook account. Such restrictions not only create frustration in a growing teenager, but also makes him/her feel untrusted.
