  1. Social Networking for Kids

  2. Social Networks 101: Facts of Life • privacy controls to limit who sees your information. • older than 13 to have a profile, but younger kids set up accounts anyway. • keep kids connected to friends and provide a space for self-expression. • no guarantees of privacy (even with settings) -- anything can be cut, pasted, and sent. • inappropriate pictures, posts, or messages can result in damage to a kid's reputation. • kids can "tag" (or identify) their friends; this can violate their friends' privacy.

  3. It's all about hanging with friends -- online.

  4. Parent Tips for Young Kids • Most of these sites are for 7-12 year olds. • If you wouldn’t let your children have an unsupervised play date, don’t let them online by themselves. • Do your homework. • Set non-negotiable time limits. • Establish codes of conduct. • Show kids how to flag inappropriate conduct. • Make sure your children never share their passwords. • Talk about money and what it means to your family. • Keep the computer in a central place.
