Post Three

The theme of my newsweek article is mainly about child molesters, and how they effect society. If people are lead to believe that they are all over our internet, talking to children all the time, they will begin to fear the internet. This is a bad result, the internet is safe if you allow it to be. If you are smart about it and make sure your children are smart about it, then they will know better than to talk to some stranger.

From a source on the Internet, it is estimated that at least two out of every ten girls and one out of every ten boys are sexually abused by the end of their 13th year. Most children who are sexually abused, are abused by a family members or close friends. "Stranger danger," by comparison, is quite rare. If you want to help stop the molestation, start by learning the facts. Tell children the dangers of the Internet, but also tell them the dangers of those around them.
