Don't tell anyone, ANYONE, that you do not personally know anything at all that you wouldn't feel comfortable broadcasting publicly. Also, regardless of how well you think you know them, or how comfortable you feel with an online friend never give them your last name, address or any specifics that would help them locate you.
If you need to know what to say how about "My parents monitor my chat logs and answering that question would get me into serious trouble" or "I don't answer questions like that online, nothing personal against you, it's just a rule for me."
There are so many creepy people out there trying to lure children and teenagers into harm that it is better to lose an online friend than your life.

to not get you all weepy and teary eyed over me, yet I in no way fairly had any pals till I met some human beings online a pair years in the past. I grew up living in the trail of nowhere, devoid of different young little ones around, and that i did not pass to college, so I in no way interacted with young little ones different than for as quickly as a week at church. And on a similar time as we've been all close, we in no way have been fairly "pals" till some 365 days in the past. i replaced into continuously the butt of each shaggy dog tale, and no person replaced into my age (all 2 years youthful or older) so I fairly have continuously been a loner. In 2006, i began out an internet college, and that i met 1000's of folk who I have been given to appreciate fairly nicely. I nonetheless evaluate them my first pals, and that they continuously would be my pals. It wasn't till some 365 days in the past that each and all the human beings I knew from church "matured" and we began striking out and doing extra issues collectively, so now they are my pals. after which there are all you adult adult males I fairly have on R&S :) i think of of you all as my pals, and that i admire coming near solutions (perchance somewhat too lots hehe) And Catti is my bestest chum ever, online or genuine lifestyles :)

you dont tell them anything you dont feel comfortable with , if they are truly your friend they will understand , i mean with all these internet wierdos walking around who would give all their infor over the net to someone they dont even know!
