Infographic on household rules for Internet use
In our recent post on the reality and misperceptions of online “predators,” we discussed the importance of talking to kids about Internet safety. However, as an ever-evolving realm that many of us didn’t grow up with, the Internet isn’t always an easy subject matter to navigate. In our latest infographic, we’ve illustrated data from our “Growing up with Media” study, highlighting how many, how frequently, and some ways in which parents establish rules regarding their children’s Internet rules in their households.
