Welcome We are first-generation Internet parents Our children are the first generation to be born and raised with the Internet as part of their everyday lives Our children know more about the Internet than we do!

Goals for Tonight To understand what our children are doing online To keep our children safe when they’re online To teach our children to make smart choices when they’re online

What Children Do Online Visit virtual worlds Talk with one another using instant messaging (IM’ing) Post profiles and communicate with others on social networking sites View and post videos Play multi-user games Do research

Virtual Worlds Popular virtual worlds >> Webkinz >> Club Penguin >> Whyville Some are better than others Visit and play yourself

Social Networking Sites Popular social networking sites >> Facebook >> MySpace >> Xanga Users create “profiles” Communicate with friends

Instant Messaging Allows children to “talk” with friends at any time on the computer IM’ing and cell phone text messaging has replaced as a preferred method of communicating

Video-Sharing Sites Popular video-sharing sites: >> YouTube >> Vimeo Users view and post videos Post and read comments about the video content

Online Games Consoles like Xbox Live are increasingly connected to the Internet, allowing kids to play against friends and strangers Many allow players to talk in real time using headsets and microphones Kids may be exposed to “trash talk” or worse

Dangers Online Disturbing content Cyberbullying Sexual predators

Sexual Predators Masquerade as other children or kindly adults Trick children into revealing personal information Lure children and teenagers into meeting them in person

Keep Personal Information Private Never reveal >> Name >> Address >> Phone number >> School name Don’t post or send photographs of yourself Choose a nondescript screen name

Protecting Against Cyberbullying Never respond to unkind remarks Don’t participate in cyberbullying Block the cyberbully Tell a trusted adult Save the posts Notify law enforcement, if appropriate

Inappropriate Content There are “bad” parts of the Internet, just as there are “bad” parts of town Shield your child with: >> Parental control software >> Child-friendly search engines >> Bookmarking favorite sites Teach your child what to do if he accidentally views disturbing content

Basic Ways To Keep Your Child Safe Sign an “Internet Safety Contract” Keep the computer in a “public” area of your home Set a time limit for computer use Become familiar with the sites your child visits Know your child’s online “friends” Know your child’s passwords Keep your antivirus software up to date

Basic Internet Rules for Children Never give out identifying information Never write or post anything you wouldn’t be comfortable with the whole world seeing Treat others online as you would treat them in person Never share your password Never open an or click on a link from someone you don’t know Never download or click on anything without checking with me or another adult first
