How are girls learning about periods? With apps that monitor menstrual cycles and vlogs offering advice how accurate is this information and who should be giving girls advice about starting periods?
Sue Lloyd-Roberts is an award winning journalist and reporter who has often risked her safety to shine a light on human right abuses. She became ill in January this year with a blood disorder that had developed into leukaemia, she talks about coping with her illness, and some of her reporting highlights.
A new advertising campaign is being launched to make parents more aware of the dangers their children can face online. But why do so few parents use parental controls?
