You bring up a very important topic that I have written several posts about. I know that Internet safety is important because there are so many people online that are looking to take advantage of kids. Also, most children aren’t aware that anything that they do online is traceable and can’t be tracked down.

Isn’t it amazing how fast the world has changed? I’ve been on the Internet since the ’90s when I was 12, so I can relate to growing up with technology and also to using landline phones will caller ID, learning to type on a manual typewriter…LOL! Anyway, things have changed quite a bit even since I was a teen, which I swear wasn’t that long ago – OK, maybe I was walking my pet dinosaur too. 😉 You’re right that there’s no rule book for this, I think parents just have to make the best judgement calls they can and encourage open and honest communication, emphasizing the importance of thinking before you share things online.

I definitely pre date the computer, cell phones etc!! had to figure out myself what to do and how to do it etc etc etc. I do not have children but used to have to kind of check in with my friends kids when they were using my computer—no parental controls except the I AM HERE-what are you doing!!
