Important Note to Parents Parents, your children's safety online is of utmost importance to BibleKidz.net. We have established our own Privacy Policy and Kids' Safety Tips to help you ensure their safety. Please teach your children these online safety measures, set limits on the amount of time your children are allowed to spend online, much the same way television viewing is limited, and supervise your children's time here. Protecting Your Kids To help your children have positive online experiences, it's important to direct them to safe places on the Web and help them stay clear of negative situations. Kids who get into danger online are almost always the ones whose parents have not taken an active role in their online experience. The good news is that you as a parent can do a lot to keep your kids safe by making them "cyber-smart." Just be sure to cover these bases with your kids: Keep the computer in view. Children who use the Internet with parents in view are less likely to explore potentially negative material. Keep personal information private. Tell your kids not to disclose any personal information (e.g., last name, city, gender, age, school name, picture) during an online chat or instant messaging time, or in their personal profile. Also, don't allow them to send their picture, passwords, or any credit card information over the Internet without getting your permission. Stay at home! Never allow your kids to personally meet anyone they meet online. Report suspicious incidents. If your children feel they are being stalked online, contact law enforcement officials and your Internet service provider immediately. Parents can call the FBI's Cyber Tipline (800/843-5678) if they suspect that their children are involved in a potentially dangerous situation. Seek software help. Software can help you control your children's access to potentially hazardous areas in cyberspace. These Web "filters" block objectionable websites, chat rooms, and other areas online that are inappropriate for your children. Use special ISPs. A number of Internet Service Providers (ISPs), some of them Christian companies, block objectionable websites before they reach your computer without requiring separate filtering software. You don't need a separate Web filter once you have one of these filtered ISPs. For more information on filtering software and filtered ISPs, visit GetNetWise (www.getnetwise.org), an Internet industry initiative to keep the Web safe for families. Our parting advice is this: be aware. If you take some simple steps, you can rest easy and enjoy the Internet along with your kids.
