The Internet is a great place to learn
new things and communicate with other students. But there are
also some dangers that go along with this new resource. It is
important that you stay safe while you are on the Internet. Here
are some tips on how to stay safe:
1.
Don't ever give out personal
information without your parent's permission first. This includes
your address, telephone number, parent's work address/telephone
number, or the name and location of your school.
2.
Tell your parents right
away if you come across any information that makes you feel uncomfortable. |
3.
Don't ever agree to get
together with someone you meet online without checking with your
parents FIRST. If your parents say that it is okay to meet with
the person, then make sure that it is in a public place. Also,
bring your mother and/or father along to the meeting. |
4.
Never send someone your
picture or anything else without first checking with your parents. |
5.
Do not respond to any messages
that are mean or make you feel uncomfortable. It is not your
fault if you get a message like that. If you do, tell your parents
right away so that they can contact the online service.
The Internet has many fun and educational
websites that offer anything from help with homework to music
to news for kids. But, please remember your safety tips. If you
have any questions about anything that you see or read--tell
your parents right away. They are there to help protect you. |
