People who work with children, including professionals, will also find the booklet helpful.
The booklet gives advice to children and parents on what to do if they are worried a child may be experiencing harm. It also includes information which parents and children can use to keep safe online.
We are often asked by parents, and professionals wishing to give good advice to parents, how they can help children and young people to use the internet safely. This booklet is WSCB's latest response to these requests.
The booklet describes the many benefits of the internet for children. Its an incredible source of information and entertainment, and a great way for them to keep in touch.
Unfortunately, nothing in life is 100% safe all the time and the internet is no different. We need to take sensible precautions to protect our families from individuals who misuse technology to harm children.
The booklet says that the most important thing is for parents and carers to talk to their children about how they use the internet and gives top tips for staying safe.
