6. INTERNET SAFETY
Rules of the Road for Kids
 1. Guard your privacy. What people know about you is up to you.
 2. Protect your reputation. Self-reflect before you self-reveal. What’s funny or
edgy today could cost you tomorrow.
 3. Nothing is private online. Anything you say or do can be copied, pasted,
and sent to gazillions of people without your permission.
 4. Assume everyone is watching. There’s a huge, vast audience out there. If
someone is your friend’s friend, they can see everything.
 5. Apply the Golden Rule. If you don’t want it done to you, don’t do it to
someone else.
 6. Watch the clock. A virtual hug never matches a real one. Balance your life.
 7. Choose wisely. Not all content is appropriate. You know what we mean.
 8. Don't hide. Using anonymity to cloak your actions doesn’t turn you into a
trustworthy, responsible human being.
 9. Think about what you see. Just because it’s online doesn’t make it true.
 10. Be smart, be safe. Not everyone is who they say they are. But you know
that.
