The World Wide Web is a fascinating educational (and entertainment) tool. With just a few keystrokes or mouse clicks, you can get help with your homework, learn a new language, play games online, chat with people thousands of miles away, exchange emails, follow your favorite sports teams, or get up-to-the-second breaking news.

As with any great invention though, there are people who misuse it to commit crimes and put your family and home at risk. Also as with any great invention, it isn't the Internet itself that's bad; it's how people use it.

On these pages are tips for safe web surfing for all ages. None of this is meant to frighten anyone. In fact, we mean to empower you and help make your online experiences safe as well as fun.

You'll also find a glossary of common Internet terms, and a news article about keeping your family safe online as well as what others are doing to keep your children safe.
