Talk about feelings. Take your child's feelings seriously and work through them.
Use firm communication. Say what you mean, and mean what you say.
Model the behavior that you desire in them. Children learn from what they see and hear.
Encourage your children often and recognize each one's personal best.
Use "time-out" balanced with "time-in."
Remember, discipline is a verb meaning "to teach."
Help Your Kids Stay Safe While Surfing On-Line
Children should never give out their full name, address, phone number, or where they attend school to anyone they do not know without a parent�s permission. Remind your children everything about them is their private information.
Explain to your children why it is important not to volunteer information to any company or individual.
Warn children that even reputable-looking web sites might not be what they appear to be, nor as friendly as they appear to be. Explain that someone might not be who he says he is online. Teach your children how to be web-savvy.
Offer to be with your child when he or she is online.
Investigate software tools that restrict sensitive personal information from being transmitted online, and tools that screen out material you don't want your children to see.
