Block inappropriate Content : You can use kids browsers or else make changes to your web browser if you have teens at home.

You can also search for some informative websites like wikipedia, discovery, cnn etc and keep their links on the bookmarks and let your children know about these in case they want to find some information online.

Teaching Information Sharing : Kids have no idea what to post on the internet and what no, hence need to decide and suggest then with all the stuff they can do and how to get started. You should teach them how to create a email account, what instant messengers are good, why chat rooms should be avoided, what to do and what not to do online and what personal details like name, email, address, contact numbers should be posted and what should be kept completely private. Based on this most children would keep note of all your suggestions would normally keep themselves private and you would fear about their privacy in future.
