Predators have found easy access to an unguarded playground, the Internet.
"One in five children (10 to 17 years old) receive unwanted sexual
solicitations online." - According to Highlights of the Youth Internet Safety Survey conducted by the U.S. Department of Justice
Kids are growing up in an age of technology with millions of Internet highways un-patrolled. Here's a valuable note for you: Ask your students in third through sixth grade about their Internet use and be ready to be surprised!
