everyone is told that there’s going to be a stranger in a White Band handing you candy but I think for us and for my generation the danger isn’t the The Stranger In The White Band that’s not where the call is coming from the call is coming from inside our pockets it’s coming from inside our [Music] iPhones I’m 12 years old at the time I’m not making friends and so this this gaming space was like a really good space for Solace for me [Music] I think advice that I would give parents and kids is to detab the conversation destigmatize the conversation as much as you can and especially parents parents I cannot emphasize this enough do not be afraid to talk to your kids about uncomfortable things and so all of these these elements of ourselves that we hide away they come out somewhere and when you’re squeezed what really comes out is your actual character and so if parents can engage with their own kids in the space that makes them feel comfortable in their own homes where they’re safe I think we could have a much better [Music] future first important to acknowledge that I don’t blame my parents I don’t blame s but I do blame the platforms that made tools of abuse so [Music] accessible honestly meeting kids where they’re at and saying like I know that these things are so hard and social situations are so hard and it’s hard to be a kid but right now these platforms aren’t safe yet and until we can hold tech companies and social media platforms accountable for making their program safe for kids maybe kids shouldn’t be on them at all [Music]
