The internet can be a fantastic resource that can give children and young people the opportunity to learn, create, research, play games, have fun and connect with other people. However, sometimes they can have negative experiences whilst online.  We know from recent research that children don’t always communicate this to a trusted adult. In January and February 2022, we asked parents about their views on this issue so that better supports can be developed for both parents and children.
