Brisbane in November

Editors' Choice 

Social Media Safety for Kids!  

A FREE INFORMATION  SESSION for Brisbane parents November  29th  2012  ­‐  7pm  ­‐  Toowong  State  School  
 
Telling  your  children  they  can't  use  social  networking  is  fighting  a losing  battle  if  you  give  them  internet   enabled  devices,  that  can  access  the  sites  and  don't  know  how  to  monitor  whether  they  have  obeyed  the   rules.   Or perhaps they have visited a friends place and have accessed sites there, unbeknown to you. We   can   show   you   the   different  sites,   so   that   you   can  make   an   educated   decision   as   to  what   is   appropriate  for  your  child  to  use.    Some  sites  are  more  secure  than  others.    
 
We  will  teach  you  and  your  child  to  use  the  security  settings  to  protect  their  privacy  and  give  you  a  good   understanding   of   what information   should   and   shouldn't   be   posted.      

We   will   teach   you   (but   not  your   child)  what  children  have  access  to  and  how  they  can  hide  it  from  you  if  you  don't  know  much about  the programs  they  are  using.   

Eyes   Open   Social   Media   is   about   helping   you   to   become  actively   involved   in   your   child's   social   media   world.    

Our   one   hour   information   session   will   give   you   a   good  understanding   of   where   you   can   start   to   help   your   child  adopt  better  protective  behaviours  whilst  using  social  media.  

 

We  cover:  

* Bullying
* Digital  Footprint   
* Predators/Sex  offenders
* Access  to  inappropriate  material   
* Identity  Theft  


We  encourage:  

*Children  to  hold  off  starting  social  networking  as  long  as  possible   *That  children  involve  their  parents  in  all  of  their  social  networking  activities  

*That  families  work  together  to  find  a  solution that  best  fits  them
Opportunities for further education options about these areas will also be available on the night.

This is the best and most up to date information available for this topic!
