Kids Rules for Online
Safety
The most important thing to remember is that when you are
online in any kind of a public forum, you are out in public, and anyone
can read whatever you type. You should never type anything on the Internet
that you would not want known to anyone, anywhere in the world. You should
also remember that people you meet in cyberspace might not be who they
seem to be. Here are some of the potential risks that arise when children
access the Internet:
Keep
Your Identity Private:
If you are in any type of public forum, avoid giving out your full
name, your mailing address, your telephone number, the name of your
school, or any other information that could help someone determine
your actual identity. The same applies to your family and friends.
Never reveal anything about other people that could possibly get them
into trouble.
Never
Get Together With Someone You "Meet" Online
The biggest danger to your safety is if you get together with someone
you "meet" online. Remember, you never know (for certain) if
people you meet online are who they say they are. If you do feel it is
appropriate to meet with someone, discuss it with your parents and
never go to the meeting by yourself. Arrange to meet in a public
place, like a coffee shop or mall that you (not just the other person)
are familiar and comfortable with, and never go alone. The safest
procedure is to have your parents talk with the parents of the other
person and for both of you to bring your parents along on the first
meeting.
Never
Respond to E-mail, Chat Comments, or Newsgroup Messages That Are
Hostile, Belligerent, Inappropriate, Or In Any Way Make You Feel
Uncomfortable:
It is not your fault if you get a message that is mean or in any way
makes, you feel uncomfortable. If you get such a message, do not
respond. Instead, show it to your parents or a trusted adult to see if
there is anything you can do to make it stop. Sending a response just
encourages the person.
Talk
with Your Parents About Their Expectations and Ground Rules for Going
Online: It
is important that you and your parents are on the same channel when it
comes to your online activities. This includes when you can go online,
how long you can stay online, and what activities you can do online.
Communicating with your parents does not mean that you have to give up
your privacy. It just means that you come to an agreement based on
mutual trust and understanding. While you are at it, perhaps you can
help your parents had better understand the Internet, what it can be
used for, and how it is helpful for teens.
