    • Ignore it.

    • Tell a parent or trusted adult.

    Correct Answer
    A. Tell a parent or trusted adult.
    Explanation
    When someone sends something online that makes us feel uncomfortable, it is important to seek help and support from a parent or trusted adult. Keeping it a secret may prolong the discomfort and potentially put us at risk. Ignoring it may not address the issue or prevent further incidents. By confiding in a parent or trusted adult, we can receive guidance on how to handle the situation and ensure our safety online.

    Private Identity information includes

    • Favorite book

    • Favorite movie

    • Full name

    • Name of my pet

    Correct Answer
    A. Full name
    Explanation
    Private identity information includes personal details that uniquely identify an individual, such as their full name. This information is considered private as it is typically used for identification purposes and can be used to access sensitive personal accounts or information. Sharing one's full name can potentially lead to identity theft or unauthorized access to personal data. Therefore, it is important to keep this information confidential and only share it with trusted sources.

    • Tell all my friends because I don't like to keep secrets.

    • Tell my parents or a trusted adult because I should never keep secrets from my parents.

    Correct Answer
    A. Tell my parents or a trusted adult because I should never keep secrets from my parents.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is to tell my parents or a trusted adult because I should never keep secrets from my parents. This is important because our parents are responsible for our well-being and safety, and they need to be aware of any potential risks or dangers. Keeping secrets from them could put us in harm's way or make it difficult for them to protect us. It is always better to be open and honest with our parents or a trusted adult about any concerns or situations we encounter online.
