A new guide has been published that provides parents with much needed help with online security for their children.  As the guide notes, online means of interaction come with certain risks, including inappropriate conduct, contact, and content. The information that "Net Cetera" provides can help parents empower their children to reduce these risks.

Published by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), "Net Cetera: Chatting with Kids About Being Online" offers parents practical tips to guide their children in navigating the online world.

This free resource is available via OnGuardOnline.gov, a Web site maintained by the FTC with support from its partners, among which is the Department of Justice’s Office of Justice Programs.
