Instagram and CWLF released A Parent’s Guide to Instagram (Taiwan) to help parents better understand Instagram and start the conversation about online safety with their children. Instagram invited CWLF chief executive officer Li-Fang Pai (白麗芳), parenting expert Dr. Daniel Huang (黃瑽寧), TV show host Claire Lin (林書煒) and her daughter Joycelin Tsai (蔡中泠) to the online release event and discussed about how parents can support and establish trusting relationship with their children, and how they can help their children safely express themselves, explore new ideas and have fun with Instagram.

Bullying has been a common phenomenon on campus. When a child faces a bullying event, the adults may worry that if they point up the situation, it may create negative impact on the child or exacerbate the hurt the child already got, so they may first downplay the incident or give the child evasive advice. However, with this response, the child is not able to be empathized, accepted or protected, which may worsen the situation and affect the child’s physical or mental well-being. Telling the child “Just ignore them” is as if saying “I don’t think your hurt is important.” It is like an invisible fist punching heavily on the heart of the bullied child.

On May 6th, Child Welfare League Foundation (CWLF) and Child Health Alliance Taiwan (CHAT) co-organized “Declining Birthrate in Taiwan: Countermeasures and Perspectives” forum and invited the Vice President Lai Ching-Te (賴清德), Minister without Portfolio Li Wan-Yi (林萬億), legistators and specialists from business, medicine and academic fields to discuss new solutions for low birthrate in Taiwan.
