4. What is the Greatest Risk? The greatest Risk of the internet is being denied access to it! Children need access to the internet for school, jobs, and the future! This means: find a better punishment than taking away the technology!

6. How do Parents do this? Have the talk with your child! Ask them to show you where they go online, how much time they spend online, and who their online friends are. The 3 C’s: –Content - what are they looking at –Contact - who are they contacting/ who is contacting them? – Cost - is anything they are doing costing you money?

7. Guidelines for Students Think before you click! Do not meet anyone you meet online in real life! Do not give ANYONE any personal information about yourself!
