We can never be too careful when dealing with children surfing the internet. I’ve written about this topic before and I found this article in Africa on this subject. Myspace.com has teamed up with others to get the word out.
MySpace will announce a partnership with Seventeen magazine, and with the United States National School Board Association and the National Association of Independent Schools to offer parents tips on how to protect minors online.
“While technology plays a critical role in tackling the challenges of Internet safety, any measures must be part of a comprehensive solution and education is an essential component,” Hemanshu Nigam, Chief Security Officer of MySpace, said in an interview.
This site has repeatedly had problems on this subject as 50(ish) year old men posed as teen girls. There are a lot of sick freaks out there. Help educate your kids so that they are better protected.
