A game blue whale is one of the causes of young deaths in recent times. What is this game?
It is said to be a game consisting of 50 steps and 50 days, giving various instructions at each step. Its content is mostly violent missions and gradually progresses by causing both physical and psychological harm to the player. Young people are expected to continue the game through threats and blackmail. Tasks are said to be carried out within a certain time period, these hours are usually determined as secluded hours after midnight. At the same time, they are asked to cut off communication with the outside world during the game.
It is known that the playmaker was created by a 22-year-old Russian young man, Philipp Budeikin, about two years ago. This game is sent to people as a link by the game administrator. It is said that as soon as the link is clicked, some personal, private information is transferred to the game administrators. In this way, young people's sense of security is shaken and a 'victim' psychology begins to form.
In the early stages of the game, people are told to do minor harm to their own body, they are shown horror movies, and subliminal messages are tried to give them, pushing the person into loneliness. As the stages progress, feelings of loneliness and insecurity increase. At the last stage, the game manager gives a final mission that results in death, stating that the time to live has expired.
The Blue Whale is a game that leaves a question mark in the minds of many families and worries them. So what should be done?
Computer games, tablets, etc. Trying to take precautions by completely banning playing games with children is not a correct protection method.
Communication within the family is the most important protective factor. Mutual harmony in communication enables individuals to establish a healthy understanding, commitment and security towards each other. Another important factor is to instill in children and young people the awareness that saying 'no' is a relief.
Giving the awareness that a child will be accepted by his family under all circumstances, even if he does not conform to the majority, will always give the child a sense of security; and will prevent them from doing things they do not want.
