On your electronic devices, the world could hear about your private chats. Make sure you can trust the people that you text secret things to (Because they could screen shot your messages). You should never tell people that you don't know private information about yourself etc; your address name or school . This is because if they find out any of this information they could find you and maybe hurt you or your friends. Always make sure if your texting someone you don't know , your parents or whoever looks after you knows that your texting them. If the person asks you to meet up somewhere, don't feel pressured to say yes. However , if you do decide to say yes make sure a responsible adult knows and will come with you.
