About this listen
In Part 2 of this powerful conversation, host Dr Jodi Richardson continues unpacking the realities of online safety with cyber safety expert Susan McLean.
From the alarming reality of online grooming to the simple but crucial “4 F’s” framework — flattery, favouritism, forbidden fruit and fear — Susan breaks down exactly how predators operate, and how parents can recognise the warning signs early.
This episode dives into:
- Why grooming can happen in as little as days
- How to actively (and appropriately) monitor your child’s online world
- The truth about platforms like Roblox
- Why digital gift cards and in-game currency are a major red flag
- The growing concern around tracking in teen relationships and coercive control
- How to start age-appropriate conversations that actually stick
Susan shares practical, no-nonsense advice to help parents stay informed, involved and empowered — because when it comes to online safety, doing nothing is not an option.
