Password* Strength indicator Repeat Password* Ground Rules* The wiseSOVA website is an online community and education website which is also being used in a research study to learn more about how parents can help with adolescent mental health. After you register for the site, you'll be directed to a separate and secure University of Pittsburgh site which will ask you for your contact info. We only collect this for your safety (like if you posted info that your child was in crisis) and do not share it with anyone else. Its important that you know this site is moderated by professionals in behavioral health on a frequent basis, but we may not see comments immediately. This site is not for crisis services. If you or your child have a psychiatric emergency, please contact one of the resources on our crisis page or call 911. ---- We want this to be a useful experience for you but we do ask you to follow a few rules to make this a good experience for everyone. By logging onto this website and participating, you agree to the terms below: ---- 1. We want everyone to feel comfortable saying what is on their mind. For this reason, we chose to make the site anonymous. That means every user will have an avatar, not a real picture of themselves, and they will have a screen name, and not use their real name. Please do not share any information which can identify you like: your name, where you live, your contact information, or other personal details. For example, It is ok to say: My daughter is 15 and sometimes I’m not sure if she hears what I tell her. It is NOT ok to say: My daughter, Anna, is 15 and sometimes I’m not sure if she hears what I tell her. ---- 2. Do not ask or provide information to text, call, or meet with users outside of using this website. ---- 3. Please do not share your password or user ID with anyone else. ---- 4. No bullying – If you don’t agree with what someone else says it is ok to say your opinion, but please be kind and respectful when you do. For example if someone says: “All moms should stay home with their kids – that’s the only way for them to do well.” It is OK to say: “I disagree with you – I think how well a kid does depends on a lot of different things. I know a lot of moms who work and their kids do great.” It is NOT OK to say: “You really have no clue what you’re talking about.” If you do see bullying, please send a private message to the therapist moderator to let them know. ---- 5. Try not to type in ALL CAPS which can feel like you are shouting. ---- 6. If you feel like you are getting very upset reading anything on the site, TAKE A BREAK. There are certain times we might feel more emotional. That is usually NOT a good time to read things which can make us more upset. ---- 7. We think the links on the site are useful but we can’t vouch for their accuracy and can’t be held responsible for the content on the site or how private they are. ---- 8. Its important for you to know that if you post something that we feel may hurt someone else’s feelings or cause someone else to be too upset, we may have to take your post or comment down. If we ever need to do this, we will send you a private message to explain why we did this. We encourage you to talk to us about it and let us know if you think it was the right thing to do.
