Cyber Safety and Cell Phone Smarts
Just when you thought you had a handle on your child's internet use, Facebook, MySpace and all those online video games, it would appear that there's a new cause for concern.
By now you've probably seen at least a few sensational news stories on "Sexting" or exchanging sexual messages and/or photos via cell phone. While this new phenomenon is relatively troubling, we don't recommend boycotting the mobile phone altogether. Instead, be aware of the issues facing kids, especially those you may not have dealt with as a child. While sexting can carry serious consequences (legal and otherwise), cyber-bullying can be even more damaging to kids, especially if they don't know how to get help.
The Committee for Children has a number of resources focusing on cyber-bullying and media safety. For more information on sexting and what you can do about it, check out this article.
