Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What personal information should you NEVER give out online?

Answer: All of these

You should not tell anyone your last name especially if it is unusual. Also, do not give out your parents' work address or telephone number.

2. What should you do if you see any information that makes you uncomfortable?

Answer: Tell your parents right away

Try to get your parents involved with your online activities. Show them your favorite websites and introduce them to your online friends.

3. Should you agree to meet with someone you met online?

Answer: Only if you have your parents' permission and they come with you

People may not be who they say they are. If you decide to meet an online pal (ONLY with your parents' permission, of course), make sure to meet them in a public place and that your parents go with you.

4. It is always safe to send a picture of yourself to an online friend.

Answer: False

You should never send a picture of yourself unless you have permission from your parents. Then ask yourself if it is one your mom would display in your living room.

5. Should you respond to messages that are mean or upsetting in any way?

Answer: No

It is not your fault if you receive a message that is rude or mean. Tell your parents if it happens and ask them how to handle the situation.

6. What should you discuss with your parents about going online?

Answer: All of these

The rules your parents set up are for your safety. Do not risk losing your parents' trust by breaking their internet rules.

7. To whom should you give your password online?

Answer: Nobody

Give your password to your parents ONLY. No matter what your online friends might tell you, the only people who need to know your password already have it.

8. Should you download or install software without your parents' permission?

Answer: No

Doing so could possibly hurt your computer or jeopardize your family's privacy. Always ask before you click.

9. How should you conduct yourself online?

Answer: Be polite and courteous but keep your information private

You should be a good online citizen and do not say things that will hurt others. Flirting can have very dangerous consequences because some people lie about who they really are. Posting personal information puts not only you, but also your family at risk. Don't do it!

10. What should you help your parents do online?

Answer: All of these

The internet can provide a wealth of knowledge to you AND your parents. Best of all, you'll always have something new to talk to them about. Have fun with Mom and Dad.
