Teaching my parent about Internet Saftey

Teaching my mom about internet saftey was a good choice. I have to be honest. It was more of a discussion than a lesson. We talked about how in my childhood, she had a separate account for each of us kids. We had our own passwords, that only she knew. It was very difficult to catch the computer unattended with it still logged in. The understanding that people on the internet chat rooms were strangers, sent a message that chat rooms and other networking was a no -no, when we were still in elementary school. Not until 8 grade did i feel I had some more freedom about the internet. I told my mom about specific information that we should not have posted on the internet, and about Brother Wests idea about the 24 hour credit card number. My mom really liked that suggestion, and has used it a couple of times.

I hope to teach my children the evils on the internet that could come up, and then have to hope they will listen to you when you give them some leg room to explore on their own. It is helpful to have a close relationship with your kids, so secrets don't have to be an issues when it comes to working on the computer. My mom agreed, which makes sense, because she probably taught that to her kids starting at a very young age.

Things As they Really Are

In the beginning of the semester I made a powerpoint about this talk given by Elder Bednar. And since it is one of the choices for our readings for the Internet Saftey Project I decided to post my power point.

Things As They Really Are Power Point. This presentation has the high points that made an impact on me.

Article Review on Internet Saftey

I read an article off of the Education World website. It was a debate about how parents should control their kids Internet activity. What I mostly got out of it was there has to be rules given to the kids. An outline of set rules to every student and child can make it a combined effort to keep them safe working together with parents and teachers. Don't give out personal info, and keep good communication between the kids. If the parents keep the same rules and be good examples, then it is easier for a kid to follow.
