Free Internet Safety Kit

[Melody]

I dug this up again after reading another thread on Internet Privacy. This is an excellent, free kit from the Polly Klaas® Foundation. Internationals need to print it, but its worth it.

From the website:

The Polly Klaas® Foundation's Internet Safety Kit (http://ga0.org/campaign/internet_safety_kit_international) contains guidance for parents on ways to:

Keep your children safer online.
Help open communications about the Internet with your children.The Kit also includes a free download of Wired With Wisdom, an Internet safety training program for parents from Web Wise Kids.

DID YOU KNOW...

:wideeyed: Half of teens 13-18 have talked online to someone they've never met.

:wideeyed: One third of teens have discussed meeting someone in person whom they have only known online.

:wideeyed: 1 in 8 teens have discovered that someone they were talking to online was actually someone older posing as someone younger.

I am... and I hug you and everything! :laugh: But then again, everyone is young and good looking on the Internet...lol.

Once a guy gets to your age it is much different than a 14 year old kid online or a teenage girl, but you should still avoid meeting up with these people unless you're in public with a lot of BIG friends ;) . I met up with a guy to buy fish once and it was one scary scenario, involving cops, and I'm very much a grown up, street-wise woman. Now I don't do any buying or selling in person, unless its Mr. Mykiss because he wouldn't hurt a fly... well maybe if he used the fly as bait, but that's beside the point.:rolleyes:

[Corbin]

haha yeahh i am goodlooking ;) and ive meet lots of teenage girls, ive even had girls from other countrays come meet me :laugh: im such a playa.


that sucks whatever happen :(.

Now ya see folks - your young girls could be meeting guys like Corbin online! Disconnect those computers while you still can!

:laugh:
