Useful websites for online safety

There are a lot of great websites about online safety for children, teenagers and parents. They are really helpful since there are a lot more issues are going on because of the Internet. Most of the teenagers like to text or chat on cell phones or Internet. Parents should be aware of it because as I talked about the privacy problem on my last post. Parents are definitely have responsibility to help their children to use the technology correctly. I was checking out a lot of different websites about online safety. One of them is very good for parents because it explains some technologies that teenagers are using the most now. Parents can get more ideas such as blogging, chat rooms, and cell-phone. Also, it talks about what "Cyber-bullying" is, and how to help children. The website is http://www.netsmartz.org/EmailChatAndIM. Parents can learn more about the Internet stuff. There is another website has some videos for teenagers, parents or teachers to watch about how we can protect ourselves while we are using the Internet. It talks about the website will never ask about their password or too personal information. We should all be aware of it, and be smart. The website is http://www.ikeepsafe.org/educators/more/google-digital-literacy-tour/. It will be awesome for teenagers and parents to watch.
