Internet Safety

Internet safety refers to the practice of protecting children from online risks such as inappropriate content, cyberbullying, online predators, and excessive screen time. Parental controls are the technical tools used as part of an overall internet safety strategy to filter, monitor, and limit a child’s access and activity across their devices and the web. Effective internet safety involves a combination of using these technical controls and having open, ongoing communication with a child about responsible and secure online behavior.
