Abstract. The changes taking place in modern society are primarily reflected in the Internet space. The Internet today is filled with various kinds of risks, which primarily affect children and adolescents. The article analyzes the faces of communication on the Internet for children and adolescents. The results obtained in the course of a sociological study — an online survey carried out using the forms.yandex.ru service, made it possible to identify four groups of risks of communication between children and adolescents in the Internet space. Such risks included: the formation of Internet addiction, the destruction of the system of traditional values, a decrease in the level of literacy, analytical skills, involvement in illegal, extremist actions. The impact of these risks is not the same and varies depending on the age of children, their socio-psychological characteristics. The data obtained during the analysis and the conclusions drawn indicate the need to revise the regulatory framework governing the behavior of children and adolescents on the Internet, responsibility for the information posted. Special joint efforts are required on the part of parents and teachers. Parents and educational institutions should take an active part in shaping the culture of using the Internet. An important role in reducing the negative impact of Internet communications on children and adolescents is played by trusting relationships with adults, not only with relatives, but also with teachers. In educational institutions, it is advisable to expand the range of activities for children and adolescents, aimed at reducing the destructive influence of the Internet environment. Special disciplines can be introduced into the curricula, both increasing the culture of using the Internet, and contributing to the strengthening of traditional values. It is necessary to change, adjust the measures aimed at controlling Internet content, the formation of youth resistance to Internet influence from fake information, including extremist ones.
