Educational resources on Internet dangers

[OverWorked]

Hello,

 

Does anyone know of any good websites aimed at informing kids of the dangers of the internet: sharing personal details, chat rooms, meeting strangers etc.

 

Since I've blocked social networking sites, webmail and chat rooms, pupils are moaning about it. I thought it may do some good to put links to websites on the intranet to better explain why they're blocked.

 

Thanks.

Thanks - that's a good one I didn't know about. I'd like the others if you can find them.

Thats probably the main/best one. You can get posters and leaflets to dish out and put on the walls.
