This publication is a guide about YouTube targeted parents. In Denmark, studies show that YouTube is the most popular social media among Danish children. This guide provides parents with knowledge, facts, a YouTube dictionary, explanation of YouTube genres and questions. The questions are meant to give inspiration to start a dialogue about YouTube between adult and child. Thereby, we encourage parents to involve themselves in their children’s digital life. The guide views YouTube through three different approaches children and young people may have to using the platform. The three approaches are: Using YouTube for inspiration to play, using YouTube for social interaction or using YouTube for self-identification development. Along with the guide, the Danish Media Council performed and published a national survey on YouTube.
