Research

As parents, you can help your children to: (from Carolyn Caywood)

	manage time on the Internet wisely
	conduct effective searches
	cope with commercial messages and protect family privacy
	make sensible judgments about the people and information they find on the Internet

To accomplish this, parents may need to make choices about which sites their children use for Internet research. Parents may want to restrict younger Internet users to kid-safe search engines or portals (sites that direct users to specific types of information, such as homework help).
