Parents and carers

Recognising and respecting the line can be confusing for young people.

They need guidance from people they look up to.
People like you.

You can help young people have healthy, happy and respectful relationships, and avoid behaviours that hurt, intimidate or diminish others.

For more information about The Line and how it talks to young people visit our Background and research page.
