It is important to keep your children safe online, and there are several steps you can take to protect them from cyberbullying and online predators. Here are some suggestions:
- Educate yourself and your children about online safety. Make sure they understand the potential risks of the online world, and how to stay safe online.
- Know your children’s online activities. Consider setting ground rules on when, where, and how your children can go online. Monitor and review their online activities, as well as their device usage.
- Use parental controls and safety filters. There are many tools available to block inappropriate websites, applications, and content.
- Set responsible passwords. Make sure the passwords are hard to guess and that your children understand the importance of not sharing these passwords with anyone.
- Limit personal information. Make sure they don’t post their full name, home address, and phone numbers on social media and other websites.
