The results of the study revealed that the contributing causes of child abuse via the internet were the result of children forming friendships and relationships without family science and using the Internet repeatedly and late times without family science.
As for the results of the study on the negative aspects of using the Internet from the viewpoint of families whose children use the Internet in the UAE society, they were as follows: the negative impact on Internet users and the reluctance to study and contribute to the promotion of pornography and the promotion of Western culture.
