Sophie goes to Saudi?
Not quite, but imagine my surprise when Molouk Y. Ba-Isa, the first of two female journalists ever to work in the Kingdom 25 years ago, now Gulf Editor of the Saudi Gazette (30 year old, most widely read newspaper in Saudi Arabia), contacted me about my book (which is not even available there)! Molouk tells me social media is hugely popular and that “everyone from grannies to babies has a Facebook page”.
This is proof that no matter where you live in this great big world, no matter your perceptions, if there are kids with access to social media, there are parents who are concerned about keeping their kids safe online.
