01Commitment framing
Parishes, youth groups, and faith leaders stand between children and harm. Forums work best when they end with hotlines, habits, and hope — not fear.
02Nine online risks
- Cyberbullying
- Grooming
- Sextortion
- Scams
- Harmful content
- Privacy leaks
- Platform hopping / secret apps
- Peer pressure & “loyalty” tasks online
- Silence from shame (children afraid to tell)
03How it often begins
- A friend request from someone they barely know
- A game chat that feels friendly — then private
- An invite to a private group or server “just for us”
04Start points for parish leaders
- Host a Parent Digital Awareness forum (calm, bilingual)
- Print the Risk Radar for the parish office → Resources
- Keep Bantay Bata’s online contact (fb.com/bantaybata163PH) and PNP-ACG (02) 8414-1560 on bulletin boards
- Book a BetterGov workshop → Training
