Sgt. Neil Hennelly from the West Linn Fire Department joined us to share tips for keeping your children safe while they are surfing the web.

For example, he explained how to "Establish Rules for Use"

  • Keep computer in common room
    • Natural Surveillance
  • Communicate
  • Parental Controls
    • Learn how to use them
  • Know who your children are talking to online
  • Spot Checks
    • Chat logs, pages, history and temporary files
  • Never agree to meet in person anyone you meet online
