Online Predators Can Be Anyone


When you read all the stories about online predators and then hear about how online predators don’t fit into any one socio-economic group but rather fall across all socio-economic groups, it makes me stop and think, if and when will online predators’ cases be ceased.  

Unfortunately, online predators will not every completely disappear.  

The best approach for parents is to educate themselves about the new technologies and online dangers and communicate with their children on how to be safe online, no matter if they are five or 18 years old. 

Once children start using the internet, parents need to take an active role with their children and teach them how to protect themselves while still having an amusing and educational experience.  And for additional support for parents, there is always My Mobile Watch Dog.
