-        After educating yourself about the Internet and computers, have a conversation with your children about the Internet and its benefits and risks like computer spy and viruses.  Together, come up with a set of Internet safety rules for your family.  If  your children take part in creating the rules, they will be more likely to follow them.

-        Keep the family computer in a public space like the family room or living room.  If your children know that you could walk past at any moment, they’re much less likely to break your agreed upon rules.

-        If you choose to use Parental Monitoring Software: TELL your child that you will be using it and explain why. Building trust and respect around computer use is extremely important, so that your children will feel comfortable coming to you if an issue or problem does arise. Also look for one that displays an icon somewhere on the screen while in use. The icon will help children remember that they’re being watched and encourage them to follow your Internet safety rules.

-        A brief introduction about computer spy is important. With the right way of description, you help your kids to prevent the computer spy activities in your house. Make sure them that privacy is essential to technology hobbies.
