8. Top Tips! Always ask an adult before you use the internet. They can help you find the best thing to do. Don’t tell strangers where you live, your phone number or where you go to school. Only your friends and family need to know that. Don’t send pictures to people you don’t know. You don’t want strangers looking at photos of you, your friends or your family. Tell a teacher/Parent/Guardian if you feel scared or unhappy about anything. Visit: http://www.thinkuknow.co.uk/11_16/
