Inside the report

To get a better understanding of how parents and children use the internet, the key parental concerns and how parents are helping children stay safe online, we commissioned Opinion Leader to carry out a programme of research over the summer of 2016.

The report summarises the findings and looks in particular detail at these questions in relations to cyberbullying and sexting.
