Internet Safety Message for Parents
Parents, if you use the Internet as a babysitter you are placing your child at risk. By analogy, think of the Internet like a big city street. Imagine that you are walking down the street with your child. On one side of the street are libraries, games, legitimate businesses and kind, friendly people. On the other side of the street are illegal enterprises, child molesters, identity thieves pornographers and bullies. Would you let your child tour that street alone? Probably not. If you fail to closely supervise your childs Internet use, his or her natural curiosity and lack of street smarts may take them to that wrong side of the Internet street.
