This
Fall a new movie, Finding Faith, will open nationwide in theaters. The movie is
based on actual events of how a girl fell prey to an online predator and how
the family survived through faith. The
film is being filmed right now and has not been rated. The film is supposed to
warn parents and children about the dangers lurking online. This may be a good
film to help open the lines of communications between parents and children. It
is difficult for some parents to start a conversation about the dangers of the
world because how do you begin such a conversation. Though, it is critical to
discuss the online dangers with children because children are being raised in the
digital age. Here are some quick statistics about children using technology:
- eMarketer reported about 15 percent of children under the age of 11 have their own cell phone
- The Pew Research Center's Internet & American Life Project reported last summer that 16 percent of teens, ages 12 to 17 years old, who are online used Twitter, doubling the number from two years earlier
