take it back—even if you wish you could.
Your parents will probably set rules, like which apps and websites you can
visit, and with whom you can talk and share online. Think of it like learning
an important skill, such as swimming, with a coach and lots of practice.
Start the conversation with your parents. Show them you’re ready to be
trusted to follow their digital rules. Suggest a contract, like the one here.
The more open you are with your parents about your online life, the
more likely they’ll be to see you as a good digital citizen.
Digital World Contract
I will not sign up for any site without my parents’ OK.
My parents and I will preview a site together before deciding to sign me up.
My parents and I will register for my account and set privacy settings together,
and I will not change any settings myself.
My parents will have the usernames and passwords to any accounts I have.
My parents will “friend” and “follow” me on all my sites and will be able to see
everything I post.
I will never post my last name, my home address, the name of my school, or other
information that identifies me or my family—either in words or in pictures.

play it
safe
How I feel about the digital world
is cautious. I’m careful to only
share things with people I know
and to keep my accounts private.

that’s personal
No matter what digital stuff you do—play games, research homework,
chat with friends, browse websites—the adults in your life will want to
look over your shoulder and talk about safety. Why? you may wonder.
You’re not scaling ice-covered mountains. You’re just hanging out at
home, clicking and tapping. What harm could it do?
Lots, if you’re not careful.
Public vs. private
Public means anyone can see.
Websites and pages you find with
a browser and without a password
are public, including social media
sites where people comment, play
games, post photos, and share
thoughts. Private means you con-
trol who can see what you do—or
at least that’s the idea. The truth is,
nothing digital is ever completely
private. E-mails and texts can be copied or forwarded to other people.
Even posts in a social media account that you think are private can
sometimes be tagged, shared, and copied.
Zipped lips and
fingertips
Staying safe means using sites
approved for your age. It also
means thinking twice before you
type or tap—no matter what age
you are! To update an old-world
phrase, safety is about keeping
your digital lips zipped.
Sharing personal information can
let a stranger know where you
live, what school you go to, or
the field where you play soccer. It
can give bullies an opportunity to
single you out. It can even allow
someone to pretend to be you.
Know before you go
Before you go online to public or private websites, learn this list of
important DON’Ts.
Don’t share digits. If it’s got a number in it, keep it offline. That
includes things like your address, birth date, age, phone number, and
any account numbers.
Don’t give your name. It might be OK to use your first name if it’s
not unusual, but a nickname or online name is better.
