  • More about Online Resilience and Wellbeing in Young People: Representing the Youth Voice


This book explores online resilience and safety from a new perspective, by drawing extensively upon the youth voice. It argues that safety is not an achievable goal and we should refocus on harm reduction and risk mitigation. Professionals often bring their own digital value biases into safeguarding decisions, and feel that they should be white knights to young people.

This groundbreaking book delves into the realm of online resilience and safety, offering a fresh perspective by extensively incorporating the voices of young individuals. While the concept of "online safety" has been prevalent for over a decade, the prevailing policy and narrative are largely shaped by preventative and adultist approaches, aimed at ensuring safety from potential harm. Supported by extensive empirical research, this book challenges the notion of achieving absolute safety and proposes a shift towards harm reduction and risk mitigation. At the core of this argument lies the unwavering assertion of the youth voice, which communicates their reluctance to disclose or seek support from adults due to a lack of confidence in receiving assistance or facing punitive consequences as a result of disclosure. The research underscores that professionals often carry their own digital value biases when making safeguarding decisions, tending to view themselves as saviors or white knights for young people. Instead of actively listening to and supporting them in a non-judgmental manner, they prioritize imposing their own beliefs and ideals.

This book holds immense value for researchers, students, practitioners, teachers, and parents who are passionate about digital resilience, safeguarding, internet security, youth online behavior, and overall well-being. By exploring the perspectives of young individuals and challenging prevailing narratives, it provides valuable insights into the complex dynamics of online environments and offers practical strategies for promoting safe and supportive practices.
