Hi, Martin here. | 0:00:12 | 0:00:14 | |
Today is Safer Internet Day - and all day online and on TV - | 0:00:14 | 0:00:17 | |
we've been asking what you think about social media and online | 0:00:17 | 0:00:20 | |
bullying. | 0:00:20 | 0:00:21 | |
So, how safe do you feel when you're using a phone or tablet? | 0:00:21 | 0:00:24 | |
In a survey carried out for Newsround, more than one in five | 0:00:24 | 0:00:27 | |
10-12 year olds who use social media said they'd been trolled | 0:00:27 | 0:00:30 | |
or bullied online. | 0:00:30 | 0:00:34 | |

Online, there are our Top Tips on what to do | 0:00:38 | 0:00:41 | |

Leah went to meet some year sevens in Sunderland | 0:00:47 | 0:00:50 | |
to hear their experiences. | 0:00:50 | 0:00:51 | |
Facebook, Instagram and YouTube. | 0:00:51 | 0:00:53 | |
Some of the world's most successful online companies. | 0:00:53 | 0:00:57 | |
So for those of you who use social networks, what experience have | 0:00:57 | 0:00:59 | |
you had on them, both good and bad? | 0:00:59 | 0:01:04 | |
I have come along to this school in the north-east of England | 0:01:04 | 0:01:07 | |
to find out. | 0:01:07 | 0:01:09 | |
Well, I use Instagram, because it is really easy to get | 0:01:09 | 0:01:12 | |
in touch with your friends. | 0:01:12 | 0:01:15 | |
I have YouTube to just research videos and watch videos and stuff. | 0:01:15 | 0:01:20 | |
The main ones I like are Instagram, Facebook and things like that. | 0:01:20 | 0:01:25 | |
I signed up to Facebook because I wanted to talk | 0:01:25 | 0:01:27 | |
to my friends outside of school if I couldn't see them in person. | 0:01:27 | 0:01:30 | |
I looked at Instagram because it is kind of what everyone does. | 0:01:30 | 0:01:36 | |
A Newsround survey found a massive 78% of 10-to-12-year-olds | 0:01:36 | 0:01:40 | |
have a social media account, despite rules saying you have to be | 0:01:40 | 0:01:43 | |
13 or over to sign up. | 0:01:43 | 0:01:49 | |
Even though the survey found more than 70% of you are happy | 0:01:49 | 0:01:52 | |
using social networking sites, it also found that many of you don't | 0:01:52 | 0:01:55 | |
always have a great time. | 0:01:55 | 0:02:00 | |
More than one in five 10-to-12-year-olds with a social | 0:02:00 | 0:02:02 | |
media account said they had been bullied or trolled online. | 0:02:02 | 0:02:08 | |
I have experienced it, but it has been in private messages | 0:02:08 | 0:02:11 | |
and I showed my mum. | 0:02:11 | 0:02:15 | |
I said I was leaving it. | 0:02:15 | 0:02:17 | |
One of my friends has been quite badly bullied on a social network | 0:02:17 | 0:02:20 | |
and it affected her quite bad, she has never been on it since. | 0:02:20 | 0:02:23 | |
One of my friends had a YouTube account and I looked on the comments | 0:02:23 | 0:02:27 | |
and I saw swearing, abusive language. | 0:02:27 | 0:02:33 | |
I have never really seen any bullying going on and I have | 0:02:33 | 0:02:36 | |
never been bullied. | 0:02:36 | 0:02:38 | |
I haven't seen anyone but I know it can happen and it can be really | 0:02:38 | 0:02:42 | |
bad, it can really hurt people. | 0:02:42 | 0:02:46 | |
Are the social networks doing enough themselves to prevent bullying | 0:02:46 | 0:02:48 | |
on their sites? | 0:02:48 | 0:02:51 | |
They all have places where you can report bullying. | 0:02:51 | 0:02:53 | |
But more than a third of you said the companies don't take | 0:02:53 | 0:02:56 | |
bullying seriously enough. | 0:02:56 | 0:03:00 | |
So what do the social media companies have to say? | 0:03:01 | 0:03:05 | |
Snapchat wouldn't do an interview nor would Instagram, | 0:03:05 | 0:03:08 | |
But they did tell us "Keeping the community safe on Instagram | 0:03:08 | 0:03:11 | |
is our number one priority and we spend a lot of time | 0:03:11 | 0:03:14 | |
thinking about it". | 0:03:14 | 0:03:16 | |
YouTube also wouldn't talk but stressed it's for 13s and over. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:18 | |
And Facebook agreed to do an interview as long as we didn't | 0:03:18 | 0:03:21 | |
ask them about under 13s, which of course | 0:03:21 | 0:03:23 | |
we wouldn't agree to. | 0:03:23 | 0:03:28 | |
Well, we've been asking you all day for your ideas about how to make | 0:03:28 | 0:03:31 | |
the online world a safer and friendlier place. | 0:03:31 | 0:03:34 | |
Lots of you have got in touch with your suggestions. | 0:03:34 | 0:03:36 | |
Sonia from Bristol says tell your parents if you're | 0:03:36 | 0:03:38 | |
being bullied because if someone types something bad, | 0:03:38 | 0:03:40 | |
they will sort it out. | 0:03:40 | 0:03:43 | |
Jess from Bournemouth would look closer at the comments | 0:03:43 | 0:03:46 | |
on her friends' pictures to make sure no-one is being mean. | 0:03:46 | 0:03:48 | |
Great advice, guys, thanks. | 0:03:48 | 0:03:52 | |
I went out to see what advice children in Manchester can give. | 0:03:52 | 0:03:57 | |
If I was giving advice to someone that had just started social media, | 0:03:57 | 0:04:00 | |
I would say to put it on private. | 0:04:00 | 0:04:02 | |
My advice is to not let bullies get you down, | 0:04:02 | 0:04:06 | |
tell the parent, and if it is that bad tell the police. | 0:04:06 | 0:04:10 | |
I think that social media sites could make the privacy better | 0:04:10 | 0:04:13 | |
by including a tutorial on how to put privacy through. | 0:04:13 | 0:04:17 | |
Don't add people you don't know. | 0:04:17 | 0:04:20 | |
I'm quite open with my mum and dad about everything I do | 0:04:20 | 0:04:23 | |
on social networking sites. | 0:04:23 | 0:04:25 | |
I tell them everything that's going on and if there's ever any | 0:04:25 | 0:04:28 | |
problems I go to them straight away and they can help me | 0:04:28 | 0:04:35 | |
help me with everything. | 0:04:35 | 0:04:39 | |
My advice would to just be nice to people | 0:04:39 | 0:04:41 | |
because you wouldn't want that happening to you and it's not nice | 0:04:41 | 0:04:44 | |
doing hurtful things. | 0:04:44 | 0:04:46 | |
