| 1) |
NEVER give your screen name
password to anyone but your parents... Not even to your best
friend. |
| 2) |
NEVER tell anyone online your
full name, home address (not even what city you live in), where
you go to school or where you go to church without your parent's
permission. |
| 3) |
Never share photos of yourself,
your family, or your home with people you meet online. |
| 4) |
Never open e-mail attachments
from someone you don't know. |
| 5) |
If someone says something that
makes you feel unsafe or uncomfortable, don't respond. Tell a
grown-up right away! |
| 6) |
Always tell a parent about any
threatening or bad language you see online. |
| 7) |
Never say you'll meet someone
in person without asking your parent's permission first. |
| 8) |
Don't
accept things from strangers (e-mail, files, Web page
addresses). |
| 9) |
Remember
that, if you meet someone online (like on a message board or in
a chat room), your never really know who they are... They might
really be an icky grown-up just pretending to be a kid. Always
ask your parents to check out a new friend for you. |
| 10) |
Never be rude or mean online
(in an e-mail, on a message board, in a chat room.) A good way
to think of this is: Never say anything to anyone online that
you wouldn't say to his or her face. |
