How do we teach Online responsibility?

Teaching kids about online responsibility is so important, there are so many things on the interests that we don't want our kids to be exposed to. To teach them to be able to confidently use the computer safely is so important. We can teach them this by using safe kids resources such as:

https://www.safesearchkids.com/ is a website through google that is safe for kids to use it filters things that would be too explicit or violent or mature for kids. 

https://www.kiddle.co/ this is also a kid proofed search engine, 


When we use these kinds of tools we dont have to worry too much about what the kids will find. this allows them online independence under protection.
