CYBER-RULES of the Road
for TEENS
1. GUARD YOUR PRIVACY What people know about you is up to you.
2. PROTECT YOUR REPUTATION. Self-reflect before you self-reveal. What’s funny or edgy today could cost you tomorrow.
3. NOTHING IS PRIVATE ONLINE. Anything you say or do can be copied, pasted, and sent to gazillions of people without your permission.
4. ASSUME EVERYONE IS WATCHING. There’s a huge, vast audience out there. If someone is your friend’s friend, they can see everything.
5. APPLY THE GOLDEN RULE If you don’t want it done to you, don’t do it to someone else.
6. CHOOSE WISELY. Not all content is appropriate. You know what we mean.
7. DON'T HIDE. Using anonymity to cloak your actions doesn’t turn you into a trustworthy, responsible human being.
8. THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU SEE. Just because it’s online doesn’t make it true.
9. BE SMART, BE SAFE. Not everyone is who they say they are. But you know that.

CYBER-RULES of the Road
for PARENTS
1. KNOW WHAT SITES AND TOOLS YOUR KIDS USE ONLINE. See below for info. on two of the most popular.
2. SET LIMITS. This goes for privacy, time limits, and limit the type of information they can share.
3. DON'T BE NAIVE. They know their way around the net--you should, too.
4. You should always be able to view their online activity, and their cell phone texts, if needed.
