THE DANGERS OF THE INTERNET

Olá Boa Tarde
Venho apresentar uma breve reflexão em inglês sobre:Os perigos da Internet.


In the twenty-first century information technology has reached a level of development so effective that nobody is thinking about not being networked with the global world. For the older ones using the Internet is something useful, a tool, a way to be connected to the world almost like reality. But for children and teens that source of research can become truly dangerous, the multiple paths of recreational offer are highly doubtful. There is a tendency among modern parents for leaving the children alone with multimedia toys, life is so intense that it is not always easy to reconcile work with due attention to the family. No matter how attractive that might be social networks such as Messenger, Hi 5 and facebook, our children must learn to deal with a virtual reality as a means of expression of the modern world, but that it is not true reality. Teach your children the importance of privacy. Knowledge or virtual friendships developed on the Internet are momentary, often fictitious. Keep computers with Internet connection on open area where you can easily supervise the activities of your children, teach them to visit only sites approved by you and talk with you before giving out information through e-mail, chat rooms or forum messages. Insist that they can never agree to meet in person with someone they met online. Talk first with your kids about social networks.
