Helping families safely explore the Internet: 10 Commandments of …
We recently read a great article by Michelle Shamp at the Examiner.com that discussed online safety for families that listed 10 Commandments of Online Safety. We wanted to post that informative list as you may want to review it your child at least monthly and place it several places throughout the house:
1. I will not give out any personal information over the internet without my parents’ permission.
2. I will tell my parents right away if I come across any information that makes me feel uncomfortable.
3. when using the internet I will not use my picture or pictures of my family members.
4. The computer will be in the family room (not in a child’s room).
5. I will never agree to meet anyone that I met online without checking with my parents first.
6. I will not respond to any messages that are mean or in any way make me feel uncomfortable.
7. I will not give out my internet password to anyone, not even my best friends, other than my parents.
8. I will check with my parents before downloading or installing software or doing anything that could possibly hurt our computer or jeopardize my family’s privacy.
9. I will be a good online and not to do anything that hurts other people or is against the law.
10. I will help my parents to understand what I like online, how to have fun, and teach them about how to use the internet, the computers, and all technology.
