This guide was developed under the recognition that hate groups are now using the Internet to quickly and inexpensively reach large numbers of Internet users, including children and teens who may not have yet developed the critical-thinking skills needed to assess sources of information or differentiate between reputable and disreputable Web sites. This guide provides families and educators with useful information about how hate groups are using the Internet, as well as to suggest strategies that will prepare children for any encounters with the message of these groups as they navigate the Internet. One section describes the historical and current hate activity on the Internet. It describes the ways children might encounter hate online, with examples provided. Another section details the growing influence of the Internet in the lives and education of youth, presents theoretical information about the dangers posed by hate groups, and recommends strategies for promoting the online safety of children. A third section provides resources and tools for use with children of all ages. The resources listed include "Internet Guidelines for Parents & Families, Educators, and Librarians" and "Internet Tips for Kids." These resources can be used to stimulate discussion about the responsibilities that accompany the privilege of computer use. Suggested discussion points and activities for families are also included in this section. The concluding section lists resources available under topic areas that include suggested resources for families, educators, and students. The resources have been selected so as to promote a safe and educational online experience for children.
