Cyber Predators

• Marcys 13-year-old daughter has a knack for
  switching computer screens or shutting the laptop
  when mom walks in the room. Like in many
  families, the two often argue about whether mom
  has the right to see what her daughter is doing
  online. The conversation is never really
  resolved.
• In any home where there are kids with computers,
  there are parents with concerns. Teenagers can
  spend hours chatting online, but who are they
  chatting with? On the other end of that instant
  message could be a complete stranger or a
  sexual predator. Its a dangerous side of the
  Internet, one thats growing and many children
  are at risk.
• If the technology is in your house, its a
  parents responsibility to protect their child,
  says Michelle Collins from the National Center
  for Missing and Exploited Children. She added
  that the problem is so widespread your child
  could be a victim and you dont even know it.

What Can Parents Do?

• Warning Signs

• How to help
• Keep computers in open areas
• Know who your children are talking to online

spell disaster.
