Tell your parents immediately if you come
across something that makes you feel uncomfortable.
Remember that people on the Internet may not
be who they seem. Never give out identifying information such as your name,
home address, school name or telephone number in a public message, such as in
a chat room or on a bulletin board.
People who are dangerous may represent
themselves online as a young boy or girl to entice you to a
face-to-face meeting.
You should never arrange a face-to-face
meeting without first asking a parent. If a parent agrees, you should meet in
a public place with your parent accompanying you. Be careful when someone
offers you something for nothing.
Be very careful about any offers that involve
you coming to a meeting or have someone visit your home.
Always get to know your online friends just
as you would get to know all of your friends.
Never send your picture without first asking a
parent.
Never respond to messages or items that are
suggestive, obscene, belligerent, threatening or make you feel uncomfortable.
Be sure that you are dealing with someone you
and your parents know and trust before giving out any personal information
about yourself.
Diligent parental supervision will help ensure
your safety on the Internet.
