Be sure to discuss each advertising type covered in this chapter with your children, and show them the examples I have here throughout the chapter. Remind them that although some ads include the word “advertising” or “sponsored ad” in small print, not every ad is labeled this clearly. Kids need to understand that not all content on a website is related to that site or is safe to click. When creating your Digital Family Policy, don’t forget to create specific rules regarding clicking advertising content, even on trusted websites. In particular, be sure to warn your children about ads that ask them to download a file or provide information, such as an e-mail address or a credit card number.

To help your kids understand advertising aimed at them, check out Admongo, a site created by the Federal Trade Commission to teach children about advertising. This site is located at www.admongo.gov. This site is targeted to kids ages 8–12 and includes helpful information for parents, too.
