Safety Pledge

Creating a "Family Pledge" for online behavior is one of the best ways to create dialogue and validate the rules you enforce. Consider posting this pledge next to your computer as a constant reminder of your family's online expectations and guidelines.

Several samples are available online. You can use these or modify them to fit your family's unique needs and circumstances.
