Kids on the Net

The internet is as natural for today’s children and teenagers as the magazine “Bravo” once was for teens in the 60s and 70s. Even the youngest are already tapping away on smartphones in their strollers, and for more than half of all teenagers, life without the internet is simply unimaginable.

However, many parents underestimate the risks: cyberbullying is on the rise, and more and more young people report negative experiences online. At the same time, the web offers enormous opportunities, with 89 percent of young people saying they have already learned something online.
