Rules
for children
Children can be given a sense of
responsibility for their actions, as well as an
understanding of some of the dangers of the web
by agreeing to a set of rules:
1) I will never give out personal
details that I would identify who I am, such as
my name, address, phone number, school or photographs.
2) I will tell a parent or a teacher
if I see any bad language or pictures on the internet,
or if anyone writes me anything I don’t like.
3) I will not reply to any messages
or bulletin board items that are suggestive, obscene,
aggressive, or distressing.
4) I will not use bad language;
neither will I take part in arguments or fights
online.
5) I will not accept any offers
of money or presents, even free offers.
6) I will never give out anything
online or give out details about my family.
7) I will enter chat rooms and websites
that I have agreed with my parents are off-limits.
8) I will not arrange face-to-face
meetings with anyone I have met online unless my
parents consent and they accompany me.
Do take note that these rules are just suggestions
and you should introduce new rules or make alterations as you deem fit to make it as comprehensible as possible for your children.
