  2. Introduction

  3. The Three Main Risks Are… • Inappropriate Contact –Teach kids how to recognize and protect themselves against contact with cyber-bullies, hackers, phishers, and predators.  People aren’t always who they say they are.  The Internet is a place to enhance existing relationships, not a place to meet new people.     • Inappropriate Content – This includes both content that is viewed and content that is uploaded by kids.  Help kids understand that the Internet is forever: everything they post online is tracked and stored and will follow them to future job interviews and  college entrance interviews. • Inappropriate Conduct – Because the web environment can feel anonymous, some youth become dis-inhibited .  Teach kids that the Internet is a public forum:  anonymity is a myth.  Help them be the good person online that they are when they’re offline. http://www.ikeepsafe.org/
