Internet Safety Guidelines for Parents
- Passwords – always ensure that your internet connection is secured with a password to stop others from accessing your wireless network.
- Parental Controls
– these can be set on your child’s computer, smartphone, tablet, and
games consoles to ensure your child doesn’t have access to inappropriate
or illegal content.
- Antivirus – make sure you
have the latest antivirus installed on any of your child’s devices.
Antiviruses aren’t just limited to computers.
- Update
– ensure that any device your child is using is up-to-date; operating
system’s on computers, smartphones, tablets, and other devices should
always be on the latest version.
- Advice –
don’t be afraid to seek advice. There are many outlets and forums
available for parents to ask questions. Reassure your child that they
can talk to you and seek advice if they need to.
