Letter to Parents from the Kids Corner...

Welcome to Jesus Kids. We take every possible precaution to make sure that your children are safe when in Jesus Kids and when surfing online in general. There is no way to be 100% sure that your children are safe online other than to be with them when they are online. We highly recommend and ask that the kids and parents read our safety tips for kids together and that all parents make sure your children understand the safety guidelines before allowing them to surf online.  Additionally, we have a "Family Internet Safety Contract" for you and your child to sign, indicating that they understand the rules for safe surfing.  Take a moment to print it out, go over it with your child, and have them sign.

While we want to make Jesus Kids and the Internet a safe, fun and educational place for all kids, our main concern is keeping them safe. So please, keep a close eye on your children when they are online and make sure they understand the safety tips.

Any information gathered from Jesus Kids will never be shared with or sold to any third party.

We invite you to get involved and make Jesus Kids a wonderful place for kids to make friends, learn, and have fun!

Jesus Kids is created and maintained by Web Design By TLC and The Valens and we are dedicated to all our children's online safety! If you ever have a question, comment or concern, please email me at fvpv7@sbcglobal.net.

Here are some tips for parents:

  • Establish online rules and an agreement with your child about Internet use at home and outside of the home (i.e., at a friend's house, at school, at the library, etc.)
    See Family Internet Safety Contract.
  • Spend time online alongside your child and establish an atmosphere of trust regarding computer usage and online activities.
  • Place your computer in an area of your home where you can easily supervise your child's Internet activity.
  • Regularly ask your kids about their online friends and activities. Role play with your child various dangerous scenarios that they could encounter online.
  • Implement software tools to protect your family from the intrusion of inappropriate content and sexual predators.
  • Recognize that chat rooms are the playground of today's sexual predator. Only direct, over-the shoulder parental supervision of your child's chat-room session is advised in un-monitored chat-rooms. . Chat-room services that provide human monitors are generally more safe than un-monitored chat rooms, however, parental supervision is essential.
  • Block instant/personal messages from people you and your child don't know. Regularly check your child's buddy list to ensure that it has not been altered.
  • Do not permit your child to have an online profile. With this restriction, he or she will not be listed in directories and is less likely to be approached in chat rooms where pedophiles often search for prey. (Some Online Service Providers such as America Online, offer subscribers online profiles.)
  • Check with your child's school to see if student projects, artwork, or photos (where material is identified by name) are being put on school home pages. Schools often want to post school newsletters or sports scores, but every time a name or photo is displayed, there is vulnerability. Schools need to be reminded of that risk and encouraged to allow access to student activities posted on the school's website by password only.
  • Monitor the amount of time your child spends on the Internet, and at what times of day. Excessive time online, especially at night, may indicate a problem. Remind your child that Internet use is a privilege, not a right.
  • Watch for changes in your child's behavior (mention of adults you don't know, secretiveness, inappropriate sexual knowledge, sleeping problems, etc.).
  • Report any content or activity that you suspect as illegal or criminal to local law enforcement and to the following cybercrime hotlines. 

Warning Signs:

Here are a few warnings signs that your child may have a problem with pornography on the Internet.

Your child is hiding disks.

Your child spends an inordinate amount of time on the Internet or is online late into the night.

Your child uses computer files that end in .gif or .jpg. These are picture files that may contain the latest Hubble telescope photos or pornographic material.

You discover unusual charges on your credit card statements. Be especially suspicious of phone charges that identify themselves as "Web Site." Many pornographers don't provide their names to avoid raising parental concern.

Your child quickly changes the computer screen when you enter the room.

You notice changes in your child's behavior (mention of adults you don't know, secretiveness, inappropriate sexual knowledge, sleeping problems, etc.).

NOTE TO PARENTS:  We will actively review all sites on a regular basis for appropriate content, but nothing can compare to adult supervision to insure your child is safe on the internet!
