Family Media Agreement

A written agreement between parents and child about phone, console and internet: when, how long and which rules apply to everyone.

A family media agreement records what the family has agreed on, such as phone-free times, rules for the night and what happens when something goes wrong. Because the child has a say and signs it, they are more likely to stick to the rules. In Germany, Internet-ABC and klicksafe offer a template to fill in and print at mediennutzungsvertrag.de.
