Keeping up with your child on the Internet
So what are the dangers?
Having the Internet at home is like bringing a city into your living room, and with new mobile technology, its like having a city in your pocket! There are exciting places for children to visit and enjoy but also lots of places where your wouldn’t want children to go unsupervised.
The main risks for children can be grouped into:
CONTACT: Potentially from someone online who may wish to harm them. Children must re-learn the “stranger = danger” rule in a new context and never give out personal details or meet alone with anyone they’ve contacted via the Internet.
CONTENT: Keep an eye on the material children are looking at and agree the ground rules about where children go and how they behave.
PRIVACY: Aggressive online marketing which can invade a child’s privacy. Encourage children not to fill out forms which ask for lots of personal details.
Stay Safe Rules:
SAFE: Staying safe involves being careful and not giving out your name, address, mobile phone number, school name or password to people online.
MEETING someone you have contacted on the Internet can be dangerous. Only do so with your parents/carers permission, and when they can be present.
ACCEPTING e-mails or opening files from people you don’t really know or trust can get you into trouble –they may contain viruses or nasty messages.
RELIABLE: Anyone can put or say anything on the Internet. Make sure you check it before your believe it.
TELL your parent or carer if someone or something makes you feel uncomfortable or worried.
