Know all social sites that your child is a part of it Have access to all content pages that your child has created Know all user names, passwords and profiles that your child has created Know all email accounts with user names and passwords that your child has created Create rules of engagement on social sites that are built on being “accountable” to you for their actions-A 3 strikes rule is not a bad idea. Create your own accounts in these networks Explain that though you will have all this information, you will only access it, should there be a need to. Establish Trust. Understand that that trust may be breached Review the privacy settings in your child’s social networks and map it to their profiles and then review their profiles Cyber Safety 4 Children See who is following of “friending” your child and vice-versa No adult, unless it’s a family member should be in any network that your child is part of. Explain the dark side of social networks to your child, there’s nothing wrong with being scared straight. Periodically evaluate the content they are sharing and consuming. Know what they are searching for Don’t forget or ignore texting and email. Establish usage guidelines for those as well. Never assume they are harmless or easy to manage. If you feel the need to establish time constraints for computer and phone usage, do it. You’re not trying to be a friend here- we’re trying to be parents. If you have to shut it down-don’t feel guilty. Do it without remorse. The computer is not a babysitter. Talk to them.
