To help protect your children when they are using the internet
remember the
GOLD EN RULES

G round rules
How should the internet be used in your home?
Keep information private - think, would I tell this to a stranger?
Agree rules about meeting online 'friends' in real life
Generally, if not acceptable in real life, it shouldn't be acceptable online

Online safety
Anti-virus and parental monitoring systems
Online safety guides
Activate security and privacy settings

Location
Internet access should be in a family room, rather than a bedroom
Be aware that devices such as gaming consoles or mobile phones can access the internet
Or via a neighbour's wireless network

Dialogue
Share the expertise
Get your children to teach you - this is better than any course you can go on
Ensure your children are happy to talk to you if they have a problem or feel uncomfortable

The internet can take you anywhere ... do you know where your children are tonight?
