As Prime Minister Andrew Holness continues distribution of tablets across the island, he is encouraging parents and guardians to properly supervise the online activities of their children.
Prime Minister Holness says, as children are now increasingly accessing the tools that enable them to go online, there is the potential for them to be exposed to unsavoury information that is not child friendly. Therefore, he notes that it is critical for children to be supervised while online.
âWhile our children may be able to play a few games on their tablets, the tablet is not a toy. It is a tool for students to access their lessons and parents have a duty to ensure their children are safe online and using their devices for the intended purposes,â said Prime Minister Holness.
