I'm Internet & Social Media Savvy

Is your child ready to handle being on social media in today's day and age?
Kids are all over the Internet these days, making it so important for parents to be sure to talk to their kids about being safe, as well as discuss what information should be kept OFF the Internet. Could you use a little support in stressing the importance of protecting against predators and preserving your child's reputation online? What about discussing cyber bullying, social networking do’s and don’ts, when/where not to post, email account tips, privacy and safety online? It can be difficult making sure your child knows all of this all by yourself.
