ON THIS PAGE: What Parents Should Know Reading is still the most basic survival skill in today's information society but it is no longer enough. Children must also be technologically literate. More and more of today's public and school libraries provide computers, CD-ROMs, Internet access and training in how to use them. These electronic resources make doing a term paper or research assignment a far different experience than most parents remember. Special computer programs can help children learn to read and may entice them to want to read with colorful graphics, interactive games and virtually unlimited on-line resources. Many libraries offer software on loan for use on home computers.
  • Surf the Internet at the library. More and more of the latest information we need for our jobs, education, health and other needs can be found on-line. Ask the librarian (or your child) for assistance.
  • Go to the library with your child to supervise her computer use. Remember that the library must provide services for all ages. It's up to you to determine what is appropriate for your own child.

Please, please, be safe!
Shannon could hear the footsteps behind her as she walked toward home. The thought of being followed made her heart beat faster. "You're being silly," she told herself, "no one is following you." To be safe she began to walk faster, but the footsteps kept up with her pace. She was afraid to look back and she was glad she was almost home. Shannon said a quick prayer, "God please get me home safe." She saw the porch light burning and ran the rest of the way to her house.
Once inside she leaned against the door for a moment, relieved to be in the safety of her home. She glanced out the window to see if anyone was there. The sidewalk was empty.
After tossing her books on the sofa she decided to grab a snack and get online. There she could talk to strangers without being afraid. After all, no one knew who she really was and couldn't hurt her.
She logged on under her screen name ByAngel213. Checking her Buddy List she saw GoTo123 was on. She sent him an instant message:
ByAngel213: Hi I'm glad you are on! I thought someone was following me home today. It was really weird!

Spend time with your children on-line. Have them teach you about their favorite on-line destinations. Keep the computer in a common room in the house, not in your child's bedroom. It is much more diffdicult for a computer-sex offender to communicate with a child when the computer screen is visible to a parent or another member of the household. Utilize parental controls provided by your service provider and/or blocking software. While electronic chat can be a great place for children to make new friends and discuss various topics of interest, it is also prowled by computer-sex offenders. Use of chat rooms, in particular, should be heavily monitored. While parents should utilize these mechanisms, they should not totally rely on them. Always maintain access to your child's on-line account and randomly check his/her e-mail. Be aware that your child could be contacted through the U.S. Mail. Be up front with your child about your access and reasons why.

Child Safety on the Internet
The following information was compiled by Indianapolis OnLine executive director, Pam Weaver , and appeared in @Internet magazine. A lot of kids are getting online these dayssharing data about acid rain, talking about social issues, meeting adults as well as kids, and learning about other cultures. There seems to be one of everything on the network. Just like any other form of media, the quality of this massive collection of information is uneven and unverifiable, and just like any bookstore, there is both good information and smut. Computer networks hold tremendous promise; however, it’s also home to people who don't have good intentions, who use their own anonymity to hurt others or their technical knowledge to steal from them. Not only are there unsavory individuals lurking out there in cyberspace, there are whole Web sites waiting to entice the immature, the easily swayed, and the vulnerable. Hate groups, for example, have discovered that the Net is an effective place to reach vast numbers. Some Web pages can teach your kids many useful and fun things, but bomb-making is probably not high on your list of activities for a Saturday afternoon. By now you’re shaking your head and pulling out your elected official’s phone number, but wait, let’s try to the put the problem into perspective. Generally, yes, it's safe for kids to use the Internet. To tell children to stop using these services just because crimes are being committed online would be like telling them to forgo attending college because students are sometimes victimized on campus. The number of sites on the Internet considered objectionable is somewhere between 1% - 3% (depending on your definition of "objectionable"), which leaves about 4.5 million other sites which are interesting and educational. Getting to the objectionable material also takes some sophisticated technical know-how. Unlike the bookstore where a child can just walk in and pick up a book from a shelf, the child who downloads pornography from the Internet has as much intention for mischief as the child hiding in the garage with a Playboy magazine in hand.

The Internet is an open door to the world:
it can also be an open door in to your home.
Mom, Dad! What’s the Internet ? In 1969, after many years of effort and research, scientists reached a much anticipated goal. They created a powerful, integrated, and highly efficient communication tool that we call the Internet. The Internet, or as many people call it, the Web, is a worldwide interconnection of networks allowing millions of people from all over the planet to communicate and exchange information instantly. The Internet allows the transmission of sounds and images, as well as enabling people to interact in real time. Internet's technology enables you to: Exchange information with another person or a group of people by using the electronic messaging service (electronic mail or e-mail), instant messaging services or discussion groups or chat rooms.

Safely Surfing The Internet
Guidelines for Parents and Children
W ith the growing popularity of the Internet, there is increased concern about children surfing the Net. The Internet offers many terrific sites and activities for kids to explore, but it also offers sites suitable only for adults. It's important for you, as parents, to understand the opportunities and dangers available to children on the Internet so you can feel comfortable letting your child explore the on-line world.
THE GLOBAL NEIGHBORHOOD
Imagine you were allowing your child and her friends to go into town or to the mall for the first time without adult chaperones. Even though you know there are dangers to your child out in the world, you wouldn't necessarily keep her at home. You would suggest things to do you think she would enjoy, tell her how to locate places you have visited together, and warn her how to stay safe. In just the same way, you must teach your child how to use the Internet safely. The Internet is a diverse global community. But like any community there are both appropriate and inappropriate places for children to visit and wonderful and not-so-wonderful people for them to meet. Children need guidelines to make these distinctions.
GUIDELINES FOR PARENTS
As a parent, use the guidelines below to help you and your children have fun surfing the Net:

Let's face itthe Internet is here to stay. But despite the potential known and unknown dangers of going "on-line," this technology can be useful to develop literacy, cognitive, and social skills. Following are some tips for families and child care professionals on how to make the Internet a safe, enjoyable, and friendly place.
  • Trusting and curious children are often anxious to explore the Internet and the experiences it provides, but similar to crossing the street and teaching other life skills, adult supervision and common sense advice are essential for their safety. Closely monitoring what children are doing on the computer is the best way to assure that their travels into cyberspace are healthy and productive.
  • It is common for young children to take pride in being able to remember and recite their home addresses, telephone numbers, or spell their names. The adults who care for them should instruct them to

CHILD SAFETY ON THE INFORMATION HIGHWAY
Some call it cyberspace, others call it the "Information highway."
Whatever it's called, millions of people are now connecting their personal computers to telephone lines so that they can go on-line. Traditionally, on-line services have been oriented towards adults, but that's changing. An increasing number of schools are going on-line and, in many homes, children are logging on to commercial services. private bulletin boards, and the Internet. As a parent you need to understand the nature of these systems. On-line services are maintained by commercial, self-regulated businesses that may screen or provide editorial/user controls, when possible, of the material contained on their systems. Computer Bulletin Boards. called BBS systems, can be operated by individuals. businesses, or organizations. The material presented is usually theme oriented offering information on hobbies and interests. While there are BBS systems that feature "adult" oriented material, most attempt to limit minors from accessing the information contained in those systems. The Internet, a global "network of networks," is not governed by any entity. This leaves no Limits or checks on the kind of information that is maintained by and accessible to Internet users.

MONITORING CHILDREN'S USE OF THE INTERNET Children tend to be way ahead of parents on the Internet. For the most part, they are more comfortable with computer technologies, schools are going on-line rapidly and the world is shrinking in totally new ways. Safety in this environment is an evolving issue, one that has attracted widespread media attention. The reality, however, of this technology is that it holds vastly more information, opportunity and richness of experience, than danger. K IDS ON THE INTERNET Common advice to parents suggests not allowing your kids to spend hours on the Internet. I don't automatically agree. If your child sat down with the encyclopedia and kept switching to different books to get deeper and deeper into an area of interest, you wouldn't object. This is child-driven learning. It is one of the best kinds of learning. It generates excitement and energy and a feeling of power. The fact that it occurs on the computer, rather than in a big, heavy set of books with very small print and no moving pictures does not diminish its value.

Teaching your Child to Ride a Bicycle
  • More than wearing a helmet,
  • More than just balance,
  • Teaching your child survival rules!
Here are the steps:
  • First, teach them the four rules to avoid fatal crashes!
  • Then, teach them to wear a helmet,
  • Then, help them learn to balance and ride according to the four rules.
Many parents begin and end with teaching balance. But step one is the most important: teaching your child how to avoid the situations that produce hundreds of dead children every year. And you probably are aware already that a helmet is essential when they make a mistake. Teaching them to balance is the easiest part for most kids. Then you have to practice the four basic safety rules in actual riding. It can take you an extra couple of hours, but the result is well worth the effort!

The Safety Rules Can Protect Your Child
1. Never ride out into a street without stopping first.
Nearly a third of car-bike crashes involving a young child occur when the child rides down a driveway or from a sidewalk into the street and in front of a car. Kids must learn to stop, look left, look right, look left again and listen to be sure no cars are com-ing before entering a street. Look left that second time because cars coming from the left are on the child's side of the street and are closer. Use your driveway or sidewalk to demonstrate this way to enter a street. Have the child practice the entry, looking left, looking right and looking left again. Make sure that they understand that be-cause they see a car does not mean the driver sees them. They must always assume that the driver has not.

Children are often better with computers than their parents. They may learn to use the Internet (go on-line) at school. Remember when they go on-line, children reach the outside world. Unless a filtering system is fitted (to block rude words and pictures for example), children can easily see rude pictures and violence as well as lots of useful and fun sites. And children can talk to strangers, especially through chat rooms. There is a risk, just as in the street, that someone who could do harm will try to approach them. Teach them never to go and meet anyone from the Internet unless you go too. Tell them not to give away their address or school name. Here are some safety tips to print off and stick to the computer:-
  • It's a really bad idea to meet someone from the Internet - unless your parents go with you, in a public place.
  • Remember, people can pretend on-line, no-one can see them.

On Line Safety Tips For Parents
  • Use the Internet with your child. Be involved at all times in your child's online activities-talk to them about online safety. Learn about and use Parental Controls, and set `ground rules' for online behavior. Know at all times who your child is taking to online, and what Web sites they visit. Put your child's computer in a `family' area of the house, and never in the child's room. Be sure to report conduct or material that is offensive to your ISP; if it is threatening, report it to local law enforcement. Teach your child never to plan a face-to-face meeting with online friends, and to tell you if they are asked to meet someone offline.
  • For Kids
  • Never give out your name, home address, age, phone number or school name-or any personal information-to strangers online. Don't give out your password to anyone, either online or offline. Never agree to meet an online friend in person without your one of your parents. Don't email pictures of yourself to strangers online.

Introduction Although on-line computer exploration opens a world of possibilities for children expanding their horizons and exposing them to different cultures and different ways of life they can also be exposed to dangers while exploring the information highway. There are individuals who attempt to sexually exploit children through the Internet. Some of these individuals gradually seduce their targets through the use of attention, affection, kindness, and even gifts. These predators often are willing to devote considerable amounts of time, money, and energy to this process. They empathize with the problems of children, and know all about their latest music, hobbies, and interests. They attempt to gradually lower children's inhibitions by slowly introducing sexual context and content into their conversations.
