Social Media - a podcast by BBC Radio

Social media is rapidly changing the world we live in and Vanel and Sindy better get prepared to help the girls navigate this online life. From seemingly ‘perfect’ influencers to trolls & bullies, there are a lot of people your children may encounter on social media but how do we protect them from the often treacherous online world? Let’s face it, many parents are guilty of posting those cute baby snaps on their own socials but how old is old enough to have an online presence? Is even keeping them offline an option when social media pages are the new CV and like and follows the new currency? It’s all so confusing, but in this episode Vanel and Sindy tackle all these tricky questions and more, whilst trying to figure out the line between the pros and cons of social media. As well as telling us of all their embarrassing parental online interactions - what is it with Mum’s and Facebook forwards!
