Teen Safety Series: Tip #3- Take control of your 7 Cups experience!
by ASilentObserver
Last post
 April 2nd
...See more Hello and welcome to the Teen Safety Series [https://www.7cups.com/forum/safe7cups/TeenSafetyTips_2661/IntroducingtheTeenSafetyTipsCampaign_325452/]. In today’s post, we will be learning one more step. At 7 Cups, we believe everyone deserves a safe and supportive space to connect.  That simply means giving you the power to control your experiences. If you are feeling uncomfortable in a chat/ group chat? You don't have to. You can shape your experiences. We offer a couple of handy tools to help you feel comfortable and in control. * Block Button:  In 1-1 chat with a listener, if a listener's behavior makes you feel uneasy, you can block them with a single click. This will prevent them from contacting you again. Listeners can utilize the same in case a member’s behavior is not respectful or appropriate.  * Mute Button: In the group support chats, sometimes you might just need a break from a conversation. The personal mute function allows you to hide messages from specific members/listeners without leaving the room entirely. Also, you can report/ block them if their behavior is causing discomfort to you.  Please know, you are in control of your experiences. And, please don't hesitate to use these tools to create a positive and comfortable experience for yourself.  We are here with you to support you in taking charge of your well-being on 7 Cups. Here are a few more steps you can take: Report inappropriate behavior: If something makes you feel unsafe, please report it through the "Report an issue" [https://help.7cups.com/hc/en-us/requests/new/] link.    Take breaks: It is okay to step away from a chat or group chat if you need some time for yourself. Focus on positive interactions: Seek out listeners who make you feel supported and understood. Please know we are here for you. If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to us for any support. And, let's work together to make 7 Cups a welcoming and supportive space for everyone.  ------------------------- Did you check out Tip #1 & #2? Find them here! * Tip #1 [https://www.7cups.com/forum/safe7cups/TeenSafetyTips_2661/TeenSafetySeriesTip1_325795/] * Tip#2  [https://www.7cups.com/forum/safe7cups/TeenSafetyTips_2661/TeenSafetySeriesTip2_326184/]

Teen Safety Tips: Tip #5

 April 17th
...See more Hay you awesome sparkles of ✨ amazement ✨ ! Do you know what time it is? Yaaas you dooo! It is Teen Safety Tips Time! (Say that ten times fast 😂) This awesome series started with this legendary post, take a peek here [https://www.7cups.com/forum/safe7cups/TeenSafetyTips_2661/IntroducingtheTeenSafetyTipsCampaign_325452/].      Today, we’ll chat about the nice public Wi-Fi that we can see available in so many places. It is so nice and we might think “Whatever, I’m getting that Wi-Fi” And that’s okay, because who doesn’t want free Wi-Fi, right? 🤷‍♀️ The thing about those public Wi-Fi's though is that they aren’t always safe 😯 So🤔 a good thing to keep in mind is to avoid accessing personal accounts or enter all that sensitive information when we’re connected to the public Wi-Fi.  🔔 An additional cool tip 🔔 Disable the location sharing feature 📵 🌎 Many apps and social media platforms offer location sharing features. So, be mindful of which apps have access to your location and disable it unless absolutely necessary. Thank you so much for checking out this fun Teen Safety Tip! Ouh! 😁 And check these fun safety tips out as well: Tip 1 [https://www.7cups.com/forum/safe7cups/TeenSafetyTips_2661/TeenSafetySeriesTip1_325795/], Tip 2 [https://www.7cups.com/forum/safe7cups/TeenSafetyTips_2661/TeenSafetySeriesTip2_326184/], Tip 3 [https://www.7cups.com/forum/safe7cups/TeenSafetyTips_2661/TeenSafetySeriesTip3Takecontrolofyour7Cupsexperience_326575/?post=3521030] & Tip 4 [https://www.7cups.com/forum/safe7cups/TeenSafetyTips_2661/TeenSafetySeriesTip4_327054/]   ✨ [https://www.7cups.com/forum/safe7cups/TeenSafetyTips_2661/TeenSafetySeriesTip1_325795/]💙✨ ✨

...See more Hello everyone, I hope you are taking it easy on yourself.  Last week we attempted: Anti-bullying Awareness Month: Take the Quiz [https://www.7cups.com/forum/safe7cups/IVSafetyResourcesEvents_1059/AntibullyingAwarenessMonthTaketheQuiz_317363/]. I appreciate everyone who attempted it so far, if you haven't yet, attempt the quiz here! [https://www.7cups.com/forum/safe7cups/IVSafetyResourcesEvents_1059/AntibullyingAwarenessMonthTaketheQuiz_317363/] Asking for help is often seen as a sign of vulnerability or weakness, leading many individuals to hesitate before seeking assistance. The fear of judgment, rejection, or burdening others can make it intimidating to reach out for support. Additionally, self-reliance and the desire to maintain independence can hinder individuals from seeking the help they need.  So, today I want us to simply participate to complete this prompt.   Prompt: It can be intimidating to ask for help because.... -------------------------

...See more Would've posted this in a more appropriate forum, but I couldn't find one. I don't like to talk to bots. Noni pops up in my available chats; it's been that way for a few months now. How do I fix that? Frankly I only talked to Noni once, & don't want to anymore.
