Websites!

Do you know what websites your kids go on?
Is it just a kid website? Is it an adult website?
My advice to you is to tell your kids about the consequences of putting personal information on the web. I am not telling you that you can’t let your kids on websites, I am just asking you to watch and make sure that they are safe.
On Facebook it is for people all over the world just like Twitter, some websites may not be, but the most popular are. On Facebook you can tell because on the home page it shows you what countries it is in.
Kids should really go on websites such as disneychannel.com webkinz.com neopets.com, etc. My Space, Facebook, Twitter, and Youtube are really for adults. Don't let your kids go on these sites if they are too young and don’t know the consequences.
Here is a scenario: what happens when your 8 year old daughter is on Facebook and starts talking to a stranger? Will she know what to do? Will she get off line? Will she talk back and not think anything of it? Too many kidnaps happen that way. Wake up to reality!!! Anything online can be tracked. That’s how your kids disappear.

Some ways to prevent that is to talk to your kids about the dangers. Help your kids realize what could happen. Monitor your kids when there on line. Change the password when your not home! Protect the kids of tomorrow by doing something today.
