2. They Need You - to encourage them to make good choices. - to teach them about how to stay safe. - to help them to recognise scams. - to encourage good behaviour and conduct. - to remind them of stranger danger. - to advise them on when to be formal and when to be informal. - to encourage them to keep trying when it 'doesn't work'. - to let them learn that in some things are a waste of money. - to share your reasoning about your decisions.

4. Content There is a lot of content on the internet that is inappropriate or could offend children. Some children have been diagnosed with PTSD after witnessing content online. It is not just what they are looking at but also adverts and content that their siblings are seeing and talking about. http://www.parentalcontrols-on.org/ We can't just block everything and need to make children aware of what to do if they do come across something that they don't like. Discuss how not everything online is true or can be trusted and ensure they are visiting age appropriate sites. http://www.net-aware.org.uk/ http://www.pegi.info/ https://www.commonsensemedia.org/

5. Contact Be open in your dialogue about what details are appropriate to give out when. Be clear that there are different rules for different websites. Ensure that privacy settings are being used- not just on their stuff but yours too. http://www.internetmatters.org/advice/social-networking/ http://www.net-aware.org.uk/ Find out how to block and report other players or people when chat or messaging is enabled. Remind children that they shouldn't be talking to strangers and to tell you who they are talking to. Encourage them never to meet anyone online and that people are not always who they say they are. Speak to your children about keeping records of any communication that they find inappropriate- including bullying. Screen grabs, saved emails or chat logs are good examples. You can report potential grooming online https://www.ceop.police.uk/Ceop-Report/

6. Conduct Make sure that your children are aware who can see their posts and comments. Ensure that privacy settings are being used- not just on their stuff but yours too. http://www.internetmatters.org/advice/social-networking/ http://www.net-aware.org. http://www.net-aware.org Make it very clear to children that nothing on the internet is temporary and that any messages can be stored permanently. Use the rule- 'If you wouldn't want your grandmother, teacher, parent or future boss to see- don't post it‘ https://www.nspcc.org.uk/preventing-abuse/keeping-children-safe/share- aware/uk/ https://www.nspcc.org.uk/preventing-abuse/keeping-children-safe/share- aware/uk/

7. Commerce The internet is full of adverts, spam and malware links that look very appealing to children. Many 'free to play' games have in-app purchases. Children can click these by accident or sometimes on purpose. Adblocking, anti-virus and anti-malware software can help limit exposure to these. Removing credit card details from phone contracts or adding in password protection. Children need to know how to avoid adverts, not to click on pop ups, not to open attachments from strangers or reply to unknown emails. Encourage and discuss use of spam filters and why we don't give our email addresses out to every website that we go on. Remember: if it is too good to be true, it probably is!

8. It’s Good To Talk Encourage an open dialogue about what your child is doing on the internet. Avoid getting cross if they share something.Help them to learn from it and so they will continue to share with you. Be clear about rules and expectations and ensure everyone abides by them.

11. What about non educational games, apps and websites? Ask what type it is. Ask whether the children know what the risks are (there nearly always will be!) Ask what the procedures are for reporting and minimising risks. Try downloading/ playing/ visiting it. Google it or: www.net-aware.org.ukwww.net-aware.org.uk Use your judgement about your child.
