Moms and Dads

Although the Children’s Library has a filtering system it is important to:

• Take responsibility for your child's online computer use.
  
• Get to know the services your child uses.
  
• If you don't know how to log on, get your child to show you.
  
• Get to know your child's "online" friends just as you get to know all of their other friends.
  
• Talk to your child about Internet safety.
