My Spaces

 

If you have children or grandchildren on Myspace, or any other Blog/Journal sites, please check to make sure they restrict their profile and who they talk to.

 

Last week officials in Connecticut reported in the news that two men had been arrested on allegations they had illegal sexual contact with minors they met through MySpace.com, a popular virtual hangout for children and teenagers.

 

Today, in the news, a middle school student faces expulsion for allegedly posting graphic threats against a classmate on the popular MySpace.com Web site, and 20 of his classmates were suspended for viewing the posting, school officials said.

 

Police are investigating the boy's comments about his classmate at TeWinkle Middle School in California as a possible hate crime, and the school district is trying to expel him.

 

I'm sure as parents and grandparents we have all set rules for Internet usage but in the click of a mouse a child could be just about anywhere.  Some of these “anywhere” sites are places children should not visit. 

 

Available today are a number of software packages that will limit your children or grandchildren’s surfing ability to sites with a “General Audience” rating.

 

Net Nanny

 

Net Nanny is parental control software that includes an Internet monitor, web site filtering, time limits, chat recording, newsgroup blocking, and privacy control in the most comprehensive and customizable software product.

I'm glad you posted that, Grandpa Chuck, Because I was lured by a 50 year old jerk who claimed to be an "online mentor".:(

Great post Grandpa Chuck! Hopefully that will help parents/grandparents make sure that kids stay "safe" on the internet!
