Expert David Smith advises parents to see what predictive text comes up when they start to type.

For example, it could be cause for concern if the predictive word 'sorry' appears when the letter 's' is typed, or if the word 'loser' appears in the predictive text panel when the letters 'l' are typed.

This kind of subtle check-in can be especially useful during adolescence, when children are less likely to disclose upsetting experiences like cyberbullying.
