Useful Tips





Children should never give out personal
details, such as address or phone number.
They should not 'friend' people they do not
know.
Never agree to meet someone you have met
online.
Don't be afraid to stop your children using
these sites until you think they are old
enough to use them.
You need to be 13 for a Facebook account.



Set privacy settings high, so that no one can
look at your online pages unless you want
them to.
Don’t be afraid to check what sites your
children are using.
Have them in the same room as you so that
you can see what they’re up to!
