Child Safety on the InternetCyberspace is just like the real world: it has a lot to offer your children, but you have to supervise them. That's not always easy. Thankfully, there's Child Safety on the Internet. It shows you exactly how to help your children benefit from the excitement and resources on the information superhighway - and make sure they stay away from the dark alleys. You'll learn how to teach your children how to use the Internet in ways that are consistent with your values; create family (or school) "Appropriate Use Policies" for Internet use; protect children from online pornography, hate literature, scams, and other "bad stuff"; keep track of what kids are doing online - no matter how techno-savvy they are; use software that helps you control your child's access to the Internet; and stay in touch with other families and schools developing ways to keep children safe on the Internet. |
