4 Things You Must Do If You Want To Keep Your Kids Safe On The Internet
1 out of 5 kids has been sexually solicited online. 1 out of 4 kids has been sent a picture of naked people or people having sex online. Do not be one of the parents that says my child would never do that ( they are kids and will try things even when you tell them not to do it). Here are some ways that you can help to keep your kid safe on the internet.
1. Talk
Talk to your children about what they are doing on the internet every day.
2. Tell them...
Tell them to never give out personal information such as my address, telephone number, parents’ work address/telephone number, or the name and location of my school without my parents’ permission.
3. Meeting online friends...
Never agree to get together with someone I meet online without first checking with my parents. Even then make sure it is in a public place and you take another friend or parent.
4. Tell them...
Tell your children if they come across any information that makes them feel uncomfortable tell you right away.
My little brothers and sister are a good example! They had it made........My father and stepmother had a little computer knowledge but not much ( at this time in the past the only things you had to really worry about was internet porn because chat rooms, messengers and blogs were not around or very few were) and they tried to do their best to monitor them on the internet. THEY DID NOT do that well!!! They thought they did but my brothers were smarter than my parents and could erase their tracks. Just remember that there is always someone smarter and that someone is most likely your kids.
