Posted in Security | By AhTim @ December 9th, 2008
We are living in Internet age. It is important to teach our children to use Internet safely. Cyber sabotage and sexual abuse are on the rise. Predators are finding their victims online.
Children are lack of experience. Easy to be cheated. Some useful guidelines to protect your children satety on Internet.
- Avoid giving out personal information online. Full name,address,birth date,account number,password
- Explain danger of posting sexually explicit or suggestive pictures online. Even offline also will corrupt children mind.
- Show your children how to choose screen name. Choose screen name wisely can express their personality but still anonymous. For example, sexxycat197 is not a great idea, while doggyfan005 is fine.
- Warn them against sexual predators. Explain how dangerous to meet people they know online. Or I should say they should not get close to friends online. Lots of people hide themselve to cheat online.
- Encourage open communication. Let your children feel easy to talk to you. Should organize discussion session to know more about what they did.
The Internet is a wonderful tool, provided with proper boundaries. Is worth to spend time with children. Teach and guide them before expose to the Internet world.

Children are open, friendly, honest and like to belive that everybody else is the same. I monitor my daughter when she’s on her own computer using my ICU Software.
