CyberPatrol Parental Controls 7.7 Product Description

It's a fact. Many kids don't tell their parents what they do online. They give out their personal information to people they don't know.

They download files that are illegal or harmful to your PC. As the use of the Internet has expanded, so have the threats to young children and teens who use it.

Keep Your Children off of Adult Sites

We're sure you have already become concerned about your child being on the internet and accidentally, or purposely, finding out what internet porn is. If this is a concern for you, then hopefully you will be happy to know that there are many ways to filter out porn sites while your child is surfing the internet. All you have to do is take some time and hop onto a popular search engine such as Google or Bing and search for an internet porn filter, porn blocker, or something similar, and you should receive some excellent results from which to choose.

Protect Your Personal Information!

One very important thing to explain to your child as he or she is surfing the internet is this: NEVER give anyone your personal information, such as your name, address, phone number, birthdate, or anything else. Explain to your child that it is YOUR responsibility as an adult to give that information to people, and that if they give their information to someone on the internet, that the person may be a bad guy who wants to do something bad with the information. Normally this will get the point across to a child without scaring him or her.

Cyber-Safe Kids, Cyber-Savvy Teens: Helping Young People Learn To Use the Internet Safely and Responsibly [Paperback]

Essential strategies to keep children and teens safe online

As our children and teens race down the onramp to the Information Superhighway, many parents feel left behind in the dust. News stories about online sexual predators, child pornography, cyberbullies, hate groups, gaming addiction, and other dangers that lurk in the online world make us feel increasingly concerned about what our children are doing (and with whom) in cyberspace. In Cyber-Safe Kids, Cyber-Savvy Teens, Internet safety expert Nancy Willard provides you with need-to-know information about those online dangers, and she gives you the practical parenting strategies necessary to help children and teens learn to use the Internet safely and responsibly.

Parents protect younger children by keeping them in safe places, teaching them simple safety rules, and paying close attention. As children grow, we help them gain the knowledge, skills, and values to make good choices--choices that will keep them safe and show respect for the rights of others. In Cyber-Safe Kids, Cyber-Savvy Teens, Willard shows you how those same strategies can be translated from the real world to the cyberworld, and that you don't have to learn advanced computer skills to put them into effect. As you work on these strategies with your child, you will also discover that remaining engaged with what your children are doing online is much more valuable than any blocking software you could buy.
