Being extra diligent when using the Internet is important; I bet your mother and father have mentioned these so many times previously. But why? In the event your parents or guardians have neglected telling you them to you, then here are those:
Don't...
Give any private information about yourself to other individuals you meet online such as your name, home address, phone number, email address, password, school information, and bank or credit card number.
Why?
On the internet predators use instant messaging and chat rooms to look for children like you who are open to giving information regarding yourselves. The information would then be used against you whether for financial or sexual purposes. Ensuring that they don't know things about you keeping you safe. So, if a unknown person asks you these things, ignore them right away.
Don't...
Reply to, download attachment from, or open spam.
Why?

Don't...
Arrange a personal meeting with anyone you meet on the internet.
Why?

There could be many nice guys around but a significant number of people using the internet specially the instant messaging and chat rooms are on the internet predators that so betting say no immediately. Never hide from your parents if you are requested by a complete stranger to plan a meeting with them.
Don't...
Modify the security setting or filtering software that your parents have configured.
Why?

Okay, you might be growing up and are inquisitive about adult websites or engage in on the web activities but still, you should not suppose to visit them. If you genuinely wish to know things about sexuality, then visit medical sites. Also, should you change your computer's security settings or disable filtering software, you could attract spyware, adware, and computer virus which can impact the overall performance of your computer and could put your files at risk.
Don't...
