互联网的虚拟世界可用于支持青年的积极发展。有效利用数字技术的能力增强了教育、就业、健康和社会领域的可持续资源。寄养青年有可能发展成果不佳，并可能面临有效使用互联网的障碍。我们讨论了使用互联网的好处和风险以及数字素养对防范风险的重要性，并就儿童福利机构、案例管理者和养父母如何与青少年合作支持安全有效地使用数字技术提出了建议。
The virtual world of the Internet may be used to support positive youth development. Accessing resources in educational, employment, health, and social domains is enhanced by the ability to effectively use digital technology. Foster youth are at risk for poor developmental outcomes and may face barriers to competent use of the Internet. We discuss the benefits and risks of Internet use and the importance of digital literacy to protect against risks, and we offer suggestions on ways that child welfare agencies, case managers, and foster parents can work with youth to support safe and effective use of digital technology.
