Internet Safety 


It is important for you and your kids to be aware of the dangers of internet usage. Anyone can be at risk to online dangers, however, there are a few reasons kids are often more at risk. Younger people may not always think about the consequences of their actions or realize the danger in disclosing personal information to strangers.  Unfortunately, this can cause them to share too much information about themselves and put themselves and family members at risk.  As with any safety issue, it is important to talk with your child about the importance of privacy and safety online and take advantage of available resources to help protect them in order to allow you to monitor their online activities effectively.
