Preventing Cyberbullying & Promoting Internet Safety
Working together - teachers, parents, law enforcement, and concerned adults - to make the Internet a safer place for kids. We must safeguard our children's online experience and provide them with the protection from potential dangers and online predators.
Some suggestions for parents:
- Monitor Internet use and find out which sites your child frequents.
- Encourage your child to come to you if they encounter anything strange, uncomfortable or upsetting online.
- Invest in monitoring software to help protect your child while using the computer.
- Tell your child to NEVER give out any personal information or post photos and NEVER meet anyone in person met online without permission.
To report any indecent materials or pornography involving children or adolescents online, immediately notify your local FBI office or call the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children at (800) 843-5678.
Test your knowledge of& shorthand commonly used online in Instant Messenger and chatrooms.
