On the Internet: Our First Talk about Online Safety

By Jillian Roberts

Book Overview

On the Internet: Our First Talk About Online Safety introduces children to the basics of online safety in a story-based, conversational style.

Using real-world examples set within the context of a child who is using the Internet for the first time and watching an older sibling interact with social media, Dr. Roberts takes readers through several common scenarios around parental supervision, online bullying and anonymity. She also includes examples of people who use the Internet to make the world a better place. On the Internet addresses common safety concerns in a child-centered way and offers easy-to-understand rationales as to why it's important to maintain boundaries online just as in real life.

Cautionary, informative and question spurring

Cautionary, informative and question spurring this book was a good read. I think I was wrong to choose bed time to introduce the book as the many concepts, like "personal bubble", brought a lot of discussion.
