About the Internet
The Internet can be lots of fun for you and your family. There is lots to see and lots to learn. Unfortunately, sometimes some individuals try to contact children and young children with the intent to be hurtful. Fortunately, you can stay safe and smart on the internet by following a few simple rules:
- ALWAYS tell your parents or another adult immediately if something is confusing or seems scary or threatening.
- DON'T give out your full name, real address, telephone number, school name or location, schedule, password or other identifying information when you are online. Check with an adult before making exceptions.
- NEVER have a face to face meeting with someone you have met online. If your parents make an exception to this rule, make certain your parent or another adult is with you when you meet your cyberpal.
- NEVER respond to any online messages that use bad or scary words, are threatening or just make you feel weird. If you get a message like this, tell an adult.
- NEVER go into a new online area that is going to cost additional money without first asking permission from your parents or your teacher.
- NEVER send your picture over the internet or in the mail to anyone without your parent's or teacher's permission.
- DON'T give out a credit card number online.
