[h=3]Teaching Kids About Internet Safety

The internet can be a wonderful place to learn, shop, play games, talk to your

friends, and more. Unfortunately, there are also predators, identity thieves, and

other people online who may try to harm you. In order to be safe online, it's

important for you and your kids to be aware of the dangers


Many kids are confident that they know how to be safe online. However, there are a

couple of reasons why kids are often more at risk. The first reason is that they may

not always think about the consequences of their actions, which can cause them to

share too much information about themselves. The second reason is that kids are

sometimes specifically targeted by cyberbullies or predators


If you're a parent or guardian, you can help to keep your kids safe by talking to them

about their internet use, teaching them about online dangers, and learning

everything you can about the internet so that you can make informed decisions.

[h=3]Revealing too much

Many kids and teens like to post photos and share information about themselves. In

some cases, this information can be used by online predators


It's also possible for an embarrassing photo to damage a kid's or teen's

reputation. This can affect their social life, and it may even come back

to haunt them years later when they're applying for a job

[h=4]Other Types of Dangers

Anytime someone uses a computer, there is a risk of eye strain, wrist strain, or other injuries. You

can help prevent this by limiting the amount of time your kids spend on computers and mobile devices


There's also another reason to limit your kids' internet use: Since people are spending more and more

time online, internet addiction is becoming a bigger problem

[h=3]Guidelines for Keeping Your Kids Safe

It can be difficult to keep your kids completely safe online. Even if you set up

parental controls on your home computer, your kids will use many other

computers that don't have parental controls. Therefore, to keep your kids safe, you'll need

to teach them to make good decisions

online — even when you're not around


Below are some general tips that you can use when teaching your kids about online safety:

Teach your kids to keep personal information private



It's usually a bad idea to post personal information online such as phone numbers, addresses, or

credit cards. If a criminal gains access to this information, they can use it to harm you or your family.

Encourage your kids to come to you if they encounter a problem.

If your child gets into trouble online, you'll want them to come to you instead of hiding it. Keep

in mind that your kids could accidentally encounter a bad site, even if they're doing everything right.
​

Talk to your kids about internet use.


Talk to your kids regularly about how they use the internet. If they're in the habit of talking to you

about the internet, they'll be more willing to come to you if there is a problem.

[h=3]Minimizing Risks at Home

If you have a home computer that your kids use, there are some extra precautions that

you can take to make it safer. Remember that your kids will probably use many other

computers, and these precautions won't keep them safe when they're not at

home. Also, keep in mind that these are just suggestions; depending on your

parenting style and your kids' ages, you may choose not to use all of these
