In such a situation, it is important that children are made aware of these shortcomings of the Internet.Keeping this issue in mind, the cyber friend portal operated by the Ministry of Home Affairs has shared some internet safety tips for children, which parents need to know.

Make children aware about online safety
Parents must talk to their children on the issue of online safety. This will develop children's ability to think and find good options.

Keep an eye on your children
Parents must keep an eye on their children, especially when they are using the Internet. This will allow parents to know what kind of things their children are searching on the Internet.

Use parental control feature
Parents will be able to help parents decide which games children can play on the Internet. You can also watch which movie or video. Also, through this feature, parents will be able to keep their children away from the content, which is not good for them.

Do not let children use the Internet alone
Parents have to ensure a place in the house where children can sit and use the Internet with everyone.

Teach children not to share personal information on the Internet
Children should be taught that personal information such as address, phone number, name and personal email should not be shared on the Internet without parental permission. Otherwise it can cause a lot of damage.
