Internet Safety
It has come to our attention that students at Mattaponi are actively using social networking sites on the Internet, some without parental permission. Social networking sites include Facebook, Bebo, MySpace, and many others. While these sites are a great way to keep in touch with family and friends, their use for children should be monitored at all times. Talk with your child about the dangers and safety when using these types of websites. Some parents use monitoring software on their computers to actually track their children’s computer use, and we at Mattaponi strongly recommend this type of approach to monitoring children’s Internet usage. One example of this type of software is “Web Watcher”, which allows parents to remotely monitor and control all of the child’s PC activity over the Internet. It can protect your children on-line, record email and instant messages sent from the computer, block and monitor websites, and limit computer use. The cost is about $35.00 and is available at Staples. President Obama was asked by a student what they could do to become president one day and he responded by saying “watch what you put on your Facebook page”. Universities and perspective employers can now monitor these sites, so please give careful consideration to what you post. You might think “not my child” but we request that you err on the side of caution, and check your computer’s history and websites visited. You might be surprised to see some of the websites children visit and know about. Hopefully, your diligence in this matter will protect your child when using the Internet.
