The big idea
Your younger siblings probably copy what you do. If they see you use AI, they will want to too. You can model safe, smart use — or you can accidentally show them risky stuff.
Real examples
- Co-use with younger siblings — sit with them, explain what you are doing.
- Show them simple, fun stuff first — story makers, animal facts, drawing helpers.
- Talk about the rules: 'Never share your name. Never share where we live.'
- If you encounter weird stuff, never show it to younger sibs. Talk to a parent.
Try it yourself
Pick one safe AI activity to do with a younger sibling. Co-use it. Talk about what you see. Set expectations: 'This is fun, but here is what we never do.'
