PARENT WARNING
School has been made aware of a very terrifying and sinister online ‘challenge game’ that encourages young children to self harm and in a few cases has led to suicide. The ‘game’ is linked to Whatapps and requires children to give their phone number. Other people have since started to create the character and incorporated it into Fortnite, Minecraft, Roblox. It has also been reported that images are being put into in seemly innocent videos such as Peppa Pig on YouTube and YouTube Kids
Click here for parent advice on this ‘challenge’.
It is recommended that you don’t specifically talk about the ‘game’ with your children but instead to have regular discussions about how to keep save online.
