2. CYBER SAFETY TIPS FOR PARENTS
1. Make sure your child does not spend all of his/her
time on the computer. People, not computers, should be
their best friends and companions.
2. Keep the computer in an area where it can be
monitored, like the family room, kitchen or living room,
not in your child’s bedroom.
3. Watch your children when they’re online and see
where they go.
3. CYBER SAFETY TIPS FOR PARENTS
4. Encourage discussions between you and your
child about what they enjoy online.
5. Make sure that your children feel comfortable
coming to you with questions and don’t over react if
things go wrong.
***Discuss these rules, get your children to agree
to adhere to them, and post them near the
computer as a reminder.***
4. SAFE CYBERSPACE SURFING
Don't communicate with strangers online
and never agree to meet in person.
Tell a parent or another adult if a stranger
contacts you in a chat room or through
email or text messaging.

Don't enter contests, join clubs, or share
your personal information for any reason,
unless your mom or dad says it's OK.
Personal information includes your name,
address, age, phone number, birthday,
email address, where you go to school, and
other facts about you.
No Talking to Strangers
