Ask before a picture of you goes online.The big ideaAsk a grown-up before a picture of you goes online.
How it works
A picture of you can go to lots of screens, and some belong to people you do not know.
A picture can show your face and it can show your home. Both are private from strangers online.
Ask a grown-up first. They help you choose who gets it.
A picture of a flower is not about you, so it is fine to show.
Ask first, or fine to show.Example 1: Ana's puppy picture
- Ana took a picture of herself and her puppy.
- It showed her face, so she asked Grandpa first.
- Grandpa helped her pick who got it: just her cousin Lia.
Example 2: A front door
- A picture of your front door shows where you live.
- Where you live is private from strangers online.
- So ask a grown-up first.
Before you send.Example 3: A flower
- A flower is not about you.
- It is fine to show.
- Your grown-up still helps you send it.
