古怪的即时通信软件层出不穷，父母已经跟不上了

最近关于小朋友使用通信软件的讨论升温，主要是担心聊天过程中受到负面影响。

转一个NSW官方的提醒帖子，它专门提到了聊天软件Kik。它的特点是很容易向任何用户发送信息，也就是说，有恶意的人只要在网上找到一个孩子的用户名，就可以向这个孩子发各种信息。

所以家长们应该教育小朋友们控制好自己的用户信息，避免将用户名等信息分享到公开的网站上，例如youtube，twitter等等。如果要分享给陌生人，应当确认了对方的背景情况，再决定是否分享。

简单的说就是一个很古老的教诲：不要和陌生人说话。

It seems that every few months a new social media platform or mobile app emerges and becomes popular with young people in our school community.

Suddenly "everyone" is on it, according to our children. It's hard for most adults to keep up.

Many parents will have recently heard about Kik Messenger and are wondering if it's safe for children. Here are some facts from the School A to Z website's technology guide:

What is Kik Messenger?

Kik Messenger is a free texting app available on iPhone, iPad, Ipod touch, Android, Windows, Samsung Galaxy and Blackberry phones.

How does it work?

Account holders use Kik to text photos, videos and "Kik cards" - which can include YouTube videos, GIFs and drawings - to other users for free.

Why is Kik useful?

Kik is particularly popular with younger teens who generally have a limited texting plan or use an iPod touch because the application gives them access to free messaging.

What do you need to keep in mind about your children and Kik?

The new version of Kik is rated +17 in iTunes because it allows users to send content from other sites like YouTube and Reddit.

The biggest problem is that users often share their private Kik username on other public social networks like Twitter, Instagram or Tumblr.

Any user who knows your child's username can then send them a Kik message. Instagram and Twitter are full of #kikme requests, with teens posting their usernames. There have been many reported cases of inappropriate adult contact because of this.
