What to do about MySpace.com - The dangers of social networking sites

  • Did you know that about 1 in 5 children were solicited for sex in the past year.
  • Or that 1 in 33 children received aggressive sexual solicitations, meaning that the child was threatened, asked to meet, was called on the phone, or received mail or gifts.
  • 1 in 4 children were exposed to photos of people having sex or of naked people, even though about 1/3 of households reported using Internet blocking software.
  • And about 1 in 17 children were threatened or harassed on the Internet, including threats of harm to the child, friends or other family members.

If those sorts of stats scare you as much as they do me then take a look at what I've found to help keep my children away from the dangers out there, or at least let us know what's going on.
