How to Make the Internet Safe for Kids

Posted on July 21, 2011 at 10:41 pm by

You cannot control the information on the Internet, but there are ways you can manage the content that gets in your computer. Here are some techniques to ensure kids Internet safety.

Keep Private Information Private

Even before kids start using the Web, make certain they know what information must never be posted or discussed online without parental permission.

These include your home phone number (and cell phone number of the kid if they have one). The kids must never give out their home address, what school they go to, social security numbers and bank account numbers.

About Posting Photos

If possible, do not allow your child to post their pictures on the Net. Even more important, children must never post pictures of your house and their school. Do not let them post personal info be it on social networks or online stores.

Interact with Kids

To protect kids online, you must talk to them constantly about their Web activities. Ask them if they have made any friends online. This will be easier to do if you have your own account. If your child has a Facebook account, make one yourself. This will help you keep track of their friends and any conversations between them.

Tell the kid to inform you immediately if there is someone online that is trying to scare, bully or harass them.

Do not allow your children to meet with people they have never met on the Net. These meetings should only happen if you are with the child. These meetings must always take place during the day and in a public place.

Parental Control Software

These are programs created specifically to filter out inappropriate content. These are available for purchase on the Web. These applications can block specific sites, keywords and can be customized to provide / limit access to specific users.

If you cannot be with the kids when they use the Web, installing one of these programs will be sufficient. There are several variants, so be certain to compare their features and specs.

Educate Yourself

Make sure that you are updated on the latest news about the Web. Apart from predators and thieves, your child may also fall victim to online scammers, expose the computer to a virus etc. By being updated, these potential dangers will be reduced.

Taking these steps will help protect kids online. Many of the potential dangers on the Web will be reduced significantly if you are prepared.

Decision-Making in Home Management

Posted on January 27, 2011 at 8:13 pm by

Making decisions for efficient home management can be very difficult. It could mean being firm even if it hurts the feelings of a family member, or even depriving a family member or some privileges for the good of the rest. It means having to cut down on certain family luxuries to be able to make ends meet. Decisions are often made regarding the following matters at home:

Discipline.

When our parents set rules regarding curfew, watching television on weekdays, or going out with friends, they expect us to follow these rules. When we deliberately disregard the rules, our parents have to impose sanctions. They may decide to limit our privileges like prohibiting weekend meetings with your friends or banning television for a certain period. Limits imposed by parents help put a structure to our lives.

Prioritizing expenses.

The family expenses for a given period are generally classified into Needs and Wants. Needs are expense items that the family members cannot do without. Needs include food, housing, health maintenance, and education of the children.
o    Wants are expenses for the family’s recreation, relaxation, and comfort. Procurement of these items can be postponed until such time that the family has extra funds aside from those set aside for Needs. Wants include fancy clothes, recreational appliance like television sets and stereos, out-of-town trips for vacations, and cosmetics.
o    When the family budget is limited, the expenses are limited to the Needs. Additional funds that may result from increased income of bonuses may permit the family to give in to their Wants. Even then, the expense items categorized under Wants should be prioritized according to their benefits to the family. For example, a family get-together for a sick grandparent may be more meaningful than the purchase of a new stereo set for the family.

Maximizing the use of available space.

When living space is limited, decisions have to be made on who will share sleeping and storage areas. It is ideal for parents to consult their children on this matter to arrive at an arrangement that is acceptable to everyone.

Planning meals.

With a limited budget for family expenses, it is important to be able to decide on what food to serve the family. Homemakers should be guided by this basic rule: buy foods that are high in nutritive value but are inexpensive.
