To ensure a secure experience on its platform for young users, Facebook has developed the «Family Centre».
The Facebook «family centre» allows you to:
- Manage privacy and security settings: who can see your child's posts and profile information. It is also possible to limit who can comment on posts.
- Filter messages: Facebook offers a filter to prevent unwanted or inappropriate messages from reaching your child's inbox.
- Monitoring friends list: Parents can help their children manage their friends list and can receive notifications about friend requests received by their children.
- Create a child account: Facebook offers a feature called «Messenger Kids», a more controlled and secure messaging platform designed specifically for children.
How do I activate parental controls on Facebook?
- Visit familycentre.Facebook.com/dashboard and log in to your account
