Parents’ Tips
      for Internet Safety

Talk to your children about the dangers of the Internet and what they should not do while on the Internet
such as:
• Never share personal information about yourself in social media, on web pages, or with online forums.
• Never agree to meet an individual from the Internet without the parents or guardian at the agreed

    meeting location.
• Never enter an area that costs money, requires a credit card, requires personal information, asks for

    passwords, or requires you hang up and dial another number without permission from a parent.
• Never accept a file or download from another user.
• Do not visit web pages that are sent to you in e-mail, chat, or instant messengers without a parent or

    guardian present.
• Never accept any gift from users you meet online.
• Don't give out your friend’s information as it could be tied to you.
• Never send someone a personal picture online or on a cell phone.

If your child ever witnesses something that upsets them or makes them feel uncomfortable, make sure they
know it's ok to talk with you.
