Safety Pledge

I think the top 5 Safety rules are:

  • I will not give my name, address, telephone number, school, or my teachers’/parents’ names, addresses, or telephone numbers, to anyone I meet on the Internet.
  • I will not use any articles, stories, or other works I find online and pretend it is my own.
  • I will not fill out any form or request online that asks me for any information about my school, my family, or myself without first asking for permission from my teachers/parents.
  • I will not send a picture of myself or others over the Internet without my teachers’/parents’ permission.
  • I will not give out my email password to anyone (even my best friends) other than my teachers/parents.

I know someone who thought he was instant messaging a girl online and it turned out to be a guy after they met. In general, I pretty much agree with these rules. They are pretty reasonable.
