Online Safety Best practices - Home  Location, location, location Computers/laptops should be used in open area Cover webcams (Why? Google “webcam hijacking” to find out!)  Consider installing filtering/monitoring software: Tell your kids it’s there and what it does Software is not a substitute for supervision  Establish agreed-upon limits for: Time spent online Specific online activities Acceptable sites  Improve your Net knowledge Take a class, research apps & games, learn from your kid

Online Safety Best practices – Mobile Devices  Consider parental controls Offered by all major carriers Some (including Sprint & AT&T) offer “drive mode” for teenage drivers  Insist on reviewing/approving contact list  Research apps your child uses/wants Is there a valid reason for its use? Do you know the features of the app?  Set limits on texts, photos & videos

Online Safety Best Practices - Gaming  Webcams/voice chats should be discouraged  STRONG firewall/antivirus/passwords are a must  STRONG firewall/antivirus/passwords are a must  Use avatars, not actual pictures  Set time limits – and stick to them  Don’t accept downloads of ‘cheat codes’  Challenge your kids to a game!
