Parent Alert
Alert #7: Your Kids Were Online, But Do You Know Where They Went?
It is all very well for parents to be told that they must supervise their children's activities online, but not so many parents have the time to literally be around when their kids are surfing the web to make sure no inappropriate websites are visited. There are several solutions to this problem.
Alert #6: Halloween Safety
The Halloween period is a great time for fun, games and parties, and of course Trick or Treating for kids. If you celebrate Halloween, keep it fun by considering the following advice!
Alert #5: Talking With Your Kids About Disasters
The recent terrorist attacks in the USA have left parents struggling to communicate appropriately about it to their questioning kids. If you are a parent, guardian or teacher of children and you feel lost about how to do it, the advice below will help you to cope better. Here is your chance to discover just how useful the internet really is!
Alert #4: Too many windows open up!
"Eeeeek! A million web pages are opening on my screen without my consent!" Does this story sound familiar? One day you were using the internet and went to a website. You were moving your mouse around a web page, when suddenly for no apparent reason extra browser windows started opening, showing you websites you had no intention of going to visit. Surprised, you closed these new windows, but that made even more windows open, many without even a control bar or menus at the top. Worse still, some of these windows were showing offensive material.
Alert #3: Parental Controls and Blocking Software are Only as Good as Your Password!
Many parents use and indeed rely on the various technological measures used by internet companies to prevent children's access to adult materials. These include parental access controls, blocking and filtering software, and activity logs. But some parents can forget that since they have to use a password in order to access, edit or set-up these features on their internet service, that password is the only thing preventing their children from getting the same access!
Alert #2: Internet Addiction
Recently psychologists in America concluded that it is indeed possible for your child to become psychologically addicted to the Internet. The addiction has been named Internet Addiction Disorder, or IAD. To be diagnosed as a "Dependent Internet User" with IAD, a child must meet at least four or more of the criteria set by the American Psychological Association.
Alert #1: Email Hoaxes
Sooner or later you or your child will receive an urgent email. This email will inform you about a new computer virus being spread around the Internet, and it will probably quote some famous organization like McAfee.com. Finally it will urge you to "Send this to everyone you know!" Put this email straight into your recycle bin—it's a chain letter and a hoax.
