Do this now
- Talk to an adult you trust.
- Do not meet alone.
- Do not share address or school.
What you can do
- In Denmark, call 112 if there is immediate danger. Elsewhere, call your local emergency number.
- Ask an adult to help you end contact and find somewhere safe to be.
- Note the username, platform and time, and keep threatening messages. Ask specialist support or the police how to preserve evidence if the messages contain intimate images. Do not forward the images.
Avoid
- Listen first, without blaming or shaming your child.
- Do not forward private messages, intimate images or explicit screenshots.
- No app can protect against everything. Do not promise that it can.
For parents
- Make clear that your child can get help even if they have broken an agreement.
- Ask what happened without pushing for every detail.
- Help end contact if needed and find someone you can ask for advice.
