The internet is a crystallization of modern human civilization. Those who use it correctly can sprint along this information superhighway, fully enjoying the boundless scenery brought by the wave of information. However, those who cannot use it correctly often find themselves trapped in a quagmire, unable to escape, and may even turn to crime. As a child's teacher, one must first understand the internet, familiarize themselves with it, and know what happens on it and how it happens. Next, one must understand the child, knowing what they do online and why they do it. Finally, one must clarify how to guide the child to use the internet correctly. Is it wrong for a child to go online? No. Parents should not overreact, fearing that the child will be polluted by harmful influences and lock away the computer. Instead, they should actively open the computer for their child, opening the window to advanced human civilization, and participate in their online activities as a parent-child activity to share their joys and sorrows, thereby better addressing the various negative emotions that arise from online use. The book "Is It Wrong for a Child to Go Online?" is based on this, with meticulous care, offering millions of parents a guiding light for children to use the internet correctly, a key to unlock the world of the internet, a handbook for parent-child activities, and exploring the inner world of children together with millions of parents. We sincerely hope that the next generation grows up healthily and joyfully on this information superhighway!
