The Web, Communication Trends, and Children's Health. Part 5: Encouraging positive and safe Internet use.
The previous four articles in this series on the Web, Communication Trends, and Children's Health (Clinical Pediatrics, March-June, 1998) have shown that the Internet is a rich interactive window on the world, with health-related resources not readily available elsewhere. While the Internet brings great benefits, there are also some significant potential drawbacks. In this final article of the series, we focus on the precautions parents, teachers, and caregivers can take to help children and their families use the Internet wisely and safely.
