Infringe on the legitimate rights and interests of minors

How do minors make good use of social apps?

In recent years, minors, as online students, spend a lot of time on online entertainment, socialization, study and consumption. Some network acquaintances or semi-acquaintances, games and knowledge social products are very popular among minors.

It is difficult to guarantee the safety of minors' use of social apps, and incidents of infringement of minors' rights and interests due to online socialization have occurred from time to time; In addition, although some social apps have set up identity authentication systems, they are ineffective, causing some minors to "streaking" on social apps.

Minors should improve their correct understanding of the use of social apps; Parents should guide and manage their children scientifically; App operators should enrich and optimize the supply of information content that teenagers are interested in; Schools can teach students how to use social apps correctly and healthily through popular science and law popularization paths such as rule of law courses, scenario simulation and case interpretation.

"Miss zhao, I wish you a happy birthday. Today, some friends and I prepared a birthday surprise for you. Can I add you as a friend and pull you into our group? "

"Yes, thank you. The teacher is looking forward to it. "

In the early morning of Sunday, May 15, Lin Zhao, a third-grade teacher in a primary school in Hedong District, Tianjin, received a short message from the school. This day is Lin Zhao's birthday, and the students made various birthday greeting videos for her: two students made a pattern of "Happy Birthday to Teacher Zhao" with different materials in the "Mini World" mobile game; Some students filmed and edited a happy birthday video; There are also students who use App to shoot expressions and record expressions of blessings.

While the students were deeply moved, Lin Zhao was also worried: they had their own social account when they were in the third grade of primary school, and they played very skillfully. Do their parents know about their children's use of social apps? Can they use these social uses safely?

In recent years, as a generation of online students, minors spend a lot of time on online entertainment, socialization, study and consumption. Some online acquaintances or semi-acquaintances socialize, game socialize, knowledge social products, etc. Deeply loved by minors.

Many interviewed experts suggested that from the perspective of minors themselves, it is necessary to improve their correct understanding of the use of social apps; From the perspective of parents, it is necessary to guide and manage children scientifically and let them use all kinds of internet products reasonably; From the perspective of App operators, it is necessary to enrich and optimize the supply of information content that teenagers are interested in; From the school's point of view, students can be taught how to use social apps correctly and healthily through popular science and law popularization paths such as rule of law courses, scenario simulation and case interpretation.

Social apps are used a lot.

A little carelessness can easily lead to accidents.

Not long ago, the research group of "Use and Rights Protection of Minors' Online Social Products" of China Youth Research Center conducted a survey with a social App, and found that social Apps have penetrated into the lives of minors, and more than 60% of minors have social app accounts. The first two reasons why minors use this social App are: convenient communication; Look at the school's homework and notices.

After experiencing the blessing of students' social apps, Lin Zhao also paid special attention to children's use of social apps. She noticed that some first-grade and even kindergarten students have their own social App accounts. She doesn't understand: why should such a small child use social apps?

Xinxin is a student in Lin Zhao. She has had her own social App account since the second grade. Now, she has been able to skillfully use the functions of adding friends, group chat, video number, small games and so on. In the use of the program.

In this case, Xinxin's mother thinks that instead of taking strict precautions, it is better to explain the various functions of these social apps and the places that should be paid attention to when making friends. For example, the wallet function, Xinxin mother encourages her children to save the lucky money in the wallet every year. When children want to buy blind boxes or snacks, she will let them spend their own lucky money. "It is very painful to spend your own money. Let children have a concept of money and then think more about it when spending money."

It is worth noting that not all parents.

In addition to spending too much time and overusing social apps, some minors are also vulnerable to bad information in some social apps. Cha Xiao, a senior high school student in Yibin, Sichuan, has been using a social application for several years. She often receives greeting messages from strange "beautiful women". When chatting, she will find that the other party wants to extort money through naked chat.

According to Zhang Hai, a middle school teacher in Suzhou City, Anhui Province, in September last year, a student in his class met a person who specializes in selling second-hand mobile phones from a social App because he wanted to change his mobile phone and was afraid to tell his parents. He spent more than 2000 yuan to order a mobile phone. After receiving the goods, he found that the mobile phone could not be used at all. When he contacted the seller again, the other party had been blacked out.

"Similar incidents happen once or twice a year in schools. No matter how much you emphasize, don't trust strangers on social apps easily. There are still many students who have been cheated. " Zhang Hai said.

The property loss is relatively light, and cases in which minors are seriously infringed because they trust strangers on social apps also occur from time to time: the Yuanzhou District People's Court of Guyuan City, Ningxia once issued a document saying that Xiaohua, who was only 16 years old, met Zhang through a social app on July 20021year. After the two met offline, Zhang raped her and took a nude video of Xiaohua with her mobile phone. Subsequently, Zhang threatened to have sex with him again by circulating nude video. In the end, Xiaohua chose to call the police and Zhang was brought to justice.

The certification system exists in name only.

The grading model does not meet expectations.

What makes minors "streaking" on some social apps?

For example, some social apps require users to enter the date of birth to verify that they are at least 18 years old, otherwise they cannot register for use, but actually there is no need to verify the date of birth.

After understanding, Lin Zhao found that there are three main reasons why some parents don't want to set up a youth model: the content of the youth model is monotonous, the function of the youth model is too little, and it is annoying to always jump out and start the youth model.

"All kinds of content pushed by App's youth mode are very boring. There is a forbidden time period from night to the next morning, and many basic functions cannot be used. Even if parents open the youth mode, there are many cracking tutorials on the Internet, which can be found by just searching. " Cha Xiao said.

"At present, the grading and juvenile mode have not achieved the expected results.

Of course, there are many reasons, but the main reason is that parents or other guardians need to strengthen their understanding of the classification model, minors themselves have doubts or conflicts about the classification model, and operators have insufficient technology to judge their age at login. All these require great attention and proper handling by all parties. "Zhang Hongwei said.

Take multiple measures at the same time and make concerted efforts.

Rational use of social applications

Various social apps are attractive to children, while parents, teachers and other adults "love and hate" minors using social apps. Is it necessary for minors to use social apps?

Zhang Hongwei believes that the body and mind of minors are constantly changing, especially after entering adolescence, and they are increasingly influenced by peers, virtual worlds and other families. Traditional autocratic or autocratic family education methods are facing many impacts, which have also had many impacts on the physical and mental development of minors. Social App provides some minors with a medium to escape or alienate from the shackles of traditional family education, and also provides them with a platform to gain recognition and comfort in peer interaction.

According to Judy, a researcher at the Institute of Sociology of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences and deputy director of the Research Office of Sociology of Teenagers and Education, social apps play an important role in the lives of minors, such as learning, obtaining information, keeping in touch with classmates and friends, entertainment and relaxation, which can meet the needs of minors at all levels and in all aspects.

"Although minors' mental development and social experience are in an immature stage, they may improperly use social apps, including addiction or accepting some bad information, but they should not be particularly' perfect' to protect them, but should be guided to actively use the Internet to empower themselves." Judy said.

So how to ensure that minors use social apps safely and reasonably?

The above-mentioned research group pointed out that it is very necessary for adults to form a democratic, respectful, communicative and understanding way with aborigines in the network age, strengthen parent-child communication, and be more tolerant and receptive to minors. Call on parents to provide democratic and harmonious intergenerational communication and upbringing for their children, but also actively undertake educational responsibilities, scientifically guide and manage their children, and let them use all kinds of Internet products reasonably.

Judy believes that from the perspective of App operators, it is still necessary to enrich and optimize the supply of information content that teenagers are interested in.

"Now a lot of content of the youth model is really safe, but it is monotonous and the quality is not good. Children either give up using it or try their best to bypass the youth protection model and make this model useless. " Judy said.

Zhang Hongwei suggested that schools can teach students how to use social apps to carry out science popularization correctly and healthily through courses of rule of law, scenario simulation and case interpretation. Minors themselves also need to improve their correct understanding of the use of social apps, not only to solve their learning, social and entertainment needs through correct use, but also not to indulge in it. If you encounter a thorny problem, you should report it in time and ask your parents or teachers for help.
