Parents can protect children from online predators without banning the Internet. Warn kids about risks, teach discernment, and insist on reporting strangers. Use filters, block chat rooms, and keep profiles private. Monitor daily activity, keep the computer in a common area, and oversee mobile use as smartphones boost online access.
