Safety Tips for Kids Online

Jul 07, 2003

1: Never give out or send personal information (photos, addresses, telephone numbers or location of your school) without your parent's permission.

2: If you come across or are sent information online that makes you feel uncomfortable, tell your parents or teacher and do not respond to that kind of message.

3: Never agree to get together with someone you meet online without your parent's prior knowledge and permission.
