Kids Rules for Online Safety 1. I will not give out personal information such as my address, telephone number, parents’ work address/telephone number, or the name and location of my school without my parents’ permission. 2. I will tell my parents right away if I come across any information that makes me feel uncomfortable. I will never agree to get together with someone I “meet” online without first checking with my parents. If my parents agree to the meeting, I will be sure that it is in a public place and bring my mother or father along. [see the other rules on their webpage…]
