Safety Tips Young people -- Never give out personal identifying information, such as your last name, date of birth or address, online. -- Never meet in person someone you first "met" online. -- Once something is posted online, it is there forever; never post anything online that you would not want     printed in the paper with your name attached to it. -- Always tell a trusted adult if anything you encounter online makes you scared or upset. Parents -- If your children use a social networking site, such as myspace.com or facebook.com, ask them to show     you their profile and talk with them about how they use the site. -- Monitor their children's online habits and keep computers and any other equipment that is connected to     the Internet (such as video game consoles) in a place in the house where you can see it.
