Livestreaming allows users to broadcast video in real time to an audience that can watch and interact through live chat. Platforms like Twitch, TikTok Live, YouTube Live, and Instagram Live are popular with young people. While livestreaming can be creative and social, it also presents serious safety concerns due to the real-time, unmoderated nature of the interaction.
Children and teenagers watch livestreams of gaming, music, and creative content. Some also broadcast their own streams, sharing their gameplay, talents, or daily life with viewers. The interactive nature of live chat makes it feel more personal than pre-recorded content, which can lead to oversharing, parasocial relationships, and vulnerability to manipulation by viewers.
Who Can Go Live
ตำแหน่ง: Varies by platform — age restrictions apply automatically on most
ตั้งค่าเป็น: Disabled for under-16s where possible
Most platforms restrict livestreaming to users over 16 or 18. Ensure your child's account has an accurate date of birth so these restrictions apply correctly.
Live Chat Moderation
ตำแหน่ง: Varies by platform — typically in Stream or Creator settings
ตั้งค่าเป็น: Enabled with keyword filters and follower-only chat
Restricts who can send messages during a livestream and filters out inappropriate language. On Twitch, use AutoMod and chat rules. On TikTok, use keyword filters.
Gifts and Donations
ตำแหน่ง: Varies by platform — found in Monetisation or Safety settings
ตั้งค่าเป็น: Disabled for children
Some platforms allow viewers to send virtual gifts or donations during livestreams. This can encourage children to perform or share personal information to receive gifts. Disable this feature for child accounts.
