Kids' Rules for Online Safety
(http://www.safekids.com/kidsrules.htm) |
1.
|
I
will not give out personal information such as my address, telephone number,
parents’ work address/telephone number, or the name and location of my school
without my parents’ permission.
|
2.
|
I
will tell my parents right away if I come across any information that makes me
feel uncomfortable.
|
3.
|
I
will never agree to get together with someone I "meet" online without first
checking with my parents. If my parents agree to the meeting, I will be sure
that it is in a public place and bring my mother or father along.
|
4.
|
I
will never send a person my picture or anything else without first checking
with my parents.
|
5.
|
I
will not respond to any messages that are mean or in any way make me feel
uncomfortable. It is not my fault if I get a message like that. If I do I will
tell my parents right away so that they can contact the service provider.
|
6.
|
I
will talk with my parents so that we can set up rules for going online. We will
decide upon the time of day that I can be online, the length of time I can be
online and appropriate area for me to visit. I will not access other areas or
break these rules without their permission.

|
I
will not give out my Internet password to anyone (even my best friends) other
than my parents.

|
I
will check with my parents before downloading or installing software or doing
anything that could possibly hurt our computer or jeopardize my family’s
privacy
|
9.
|
I
will be a good online citizen and not do anything that hurts other people or is
against the law.
|
10.
|
I
will help my parents understand how to have fun and learn things online and
teach them things about the Internet, computers and other technology
