We received over 1,500 responses from kids (aged 8 to 14)
about their Internet habits, and we're thrilled to report that they get
an A+ when it comes to being smart online! Read below for the results
and to see what a fine example they set for their peers …

89% of kids said they spend between one and three hours on the Internet per day. WOW!

Doing homework, playing games, and checking out sites like MySpace and YouTube are the top three reasons kids are hanging out online.

Only 2%
of kids said they've ever given away private information (like their
full name and address) to someone they've just met via the Internet.
Remember - you should NEVER disclose your personal information to
anyone you don't know and trust personally.

81% of kids
said they've never started up a new friendship with someone they've
just met online. Good thinking - playing it safe is the way to go!

What would you do if someone you've just met online asked you to meet them in person? 80% said ‘tell an adult' and 16% said ‘just ignore it.'
That's right, you should never make arrangements to meet someone in
person you've only met online. You never know who you can trust when it
comes to the World Wide Web!
