How to be safe when playing games online?

Online gaming is a popular hobby, especially for the high school students. With so many exciting online games available, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. Playing online games is really fun, but it’s important to stay safe. 

Games can offer young people a sense of escape from the reality of the world and the social aspect of some games can help children feel part of a community. However, without the right guidance on what games to play or when to play, children can be exposed to certain risks such as in-game bullying, online grooming or in some extreme cases gaming addiction.
