Internet Safety Tips for Kids
I
will not 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.
I
will tell my parents right away if I come across any information that
makes me feel uncomfortable.
I
will never agree to get together with someone I "meet" online without
first checking with my parents. If my parents agree to the meeting, I
will be sure that it is in a public place and bring my mother or father
along.
I will never send a person my picture or anything else without first checking with my parents.
I will not respond to any messages that are mean or
in any way make me feel uncomfortable. It is not my fault if I get a message
like that. If I do I will tell my parents right away so that they can
contact the online service.
I
will talk with my parents so that we can set up rules for going online.
We will decide upon the time of day that I can be online, the length of
time I can be online, and appropriate areas for me to visit. I
will not access other areas or break these rules without their permission.
