Cybersafety for Parents

As a parent we are always wondering what are children are getting up to, both offline and online.  The social world of the internet has grown at an astonishing pace and it is the place to be seen for young people these days.

But how do we as digital newcomers help guide and nurture our children, these digital denizens that have grown up with this technology, through this maze of apps and online behaviours and social etiquette to ensure our children are safe online?  It is easy to feel overwhelmed, we know their are online dangers but how do we protect our children whilst they are in this online world?

It is important that as parents we take some responsibility to understand the online world and to help our children establish their online behaviours and presence in the correct way.  Remember that what goes online can stay there forever.  A bad digital or online reputation can effect your childs future for a long time to come.

Cybermums wants your input into what topics are important to you with regard to your childs online education.
