When we think of the types of abuse it is easier to imagine how this may happen in the real world. There are now significant risks of sexual and emotional abuse for children in the “Digital world”. This new term, ‘e-safety’, is concerned with the safeguarding of children and young people in the digital world and ensuring that they feel safe when accessing new technology.

Finally, there are numerous members of the public who share the view that it would help to tackle cyber bullying on these websites. By monitoring social networking sites they can tackle attacks on children and even adults which may otherwise lead to the person’s suicide or contribute to them self-harming. “Internet users should reject despicable websites that enable cyber bullying to help avert more deaths of young members of society,” the Prime Minister has said. David Cameron request parents and adults to block sites that allowed intimidators

However, as more as the prevalence of cyberbullying climbs so do the people saying just what Brett Warnke says in his article “The Danger of Cyberbullying”, “why don’t kids just unplug?” Well, the thing is, that they can’t. Social media is everywhere and people are integrating it into everything now. Going back to Warnke’s article, Eden Foster comments on technology, “[The] use of technology has extended beyond simple entertainment”. Humans now use technology, not only to entertain ourselves, but also in our everyday lives, it’s like it’s “infiltrated the confines of the home” (Warnke 24). Things that happen solely online affect us in real life, especially negative things such as cyberbullying. Cyberbullying is something that, according to Kirk Sigmon in his article titled “Sacrificing the First Amendment to catch ‘Cyberbullies’”, children should be able to avoid and ignore, but it just doesn’t happen that way. In The Ophelia Project’s fact sheet on cyberbullying there is a statistic that states “60% of targets said that their online experiences as a target of cyberbullying affected them at school, home, and with friends and reported experiencing feelings of frustration, anger, and sadness,” showing that these negative online experiences follow a person into the outside world. The feelings mentioned in the statistic can lead to a victim to hurt themselves or to develop mental issues, which is exactly what

When the kitten is born, up until it reaches the age of 2 weeks, kittens respond to different sounds, they open their eyes and will start to compete with their littermates for territory. If they are seperated from their mum and littermates at this age they will never learn how to behave around other cats and will be too rough with playing.

Undress baby down to her/his nappy (to take off the clothes gently start with one arm then the other, after that remove the clothes from the front of the head to the back) Be careful not to tug little ears and noses;

A lot of kids met someone online and decides to meet them somewhere, which is dangerous. In my own experience, I’ve been calling and chatting strangers online. I’ve been making a lot of Internet friends online even though, I know in myself that it’s dangerous. There have been a lot of reports about strangers killing kids or some victim that they have been deceived or have deceived online. Spyware is one of the ways prevent the killing incidents and it is also a way to prevent our children seeing or clicking through the harmful sites. A kid researching might accidentally click on a site that has a lot of malicious pictures, adult content, and some other stuff that the kid shouldn’t see. In paragraph 8, Coben said, ¨First, we’ve all read about the young boy unknowingly conversing with a pedophile or the girl who was cyber bullied to the point where she committed suicide.¨ I agree on this part because I’ve been cyber bullied once. Some guy posted bad things about me on Facebook and I knew that everyone could see it. Luckily, my friends didn’t believe it and everyone reported him. A lot of people are experiencing or have experienced cyber bullying and I know that there’s a time in their life when they want to commit suicide because of

Cyberbullies can hurt children and sexual predators stalk the internet. As Coben stated, “First we've all read about the young boy unknowingly conversing with a pedophile of a girl who was cyber bullied to the point where she committed suicide”(Coben). Cyberbullies attack children, but if parents had spyware they might be able to prevent these attacks. Suzanne Choney from NBC News stated, “with recent cases like that of a 14-Year old boy posting a sexually explicit video of himself with a 14- year old girl on facebook”(Choney). Monitoring teens while on social media could save children from sexual exploits. Although spyware may protect children from the dangers, it is also an invasion of privacy. As Dr Peggy Drexler asserted “its not the fault of the social media...The best policy is to give kids their privacy”(Drexler). Spyware is an invasion of privacy and may cause children to lose trust in their parents, but it is the parent's responsibility to protect their child. As Coben stated”...but surrendering parental responsibility to a machine that allows the entire world access to your home borders on negligence”(Coben). In addition, Coben also states that every thing that children put on the internet can be seen by everyone, “Shouldn't he learn now the internet is not a haven of privacy”(Coben).

Early years setting defines the role of parents, carers, teacher, education providers and Government to work within the framework to support an integrated approach to provide the best possible care for children in the United Kingdom. It also provides professionals who work with children to set a common policy and commitments to deliver the best quality of early year education and childcare experience to all involved. It is important that early childhood practitioners understand that individual child develops at a different level in accordance with their surrounding environment. Policies and procedures become a tool to support practitioners to understand in detail any child’s development throughout their early year stages (Goulet, M. & Shroeder,

Initially, people need to be able to avoid bad situations online. Children should be educated enough to manage and avoid offensive situations on the Internet. If the child can’t handle that, they should not be using the Internet. In the article “Sacrificing the First Amendment to Catch ‘Cyberbullies’, Kirk Sigmon stated that “Children should be educated to manage and avoid offensive situations on the Internet. If the child in question can’t handle that, they should not use the Internet. It’s that simple.” Although many people will say that avoiding a bad situation is hard, it is really easy. Clearly, a child needs to be able to stay away from harmful situations if he or she is using the internet.

In this article the author discusses about the harmful actives that the internet dose to the youth. With two main points; cyber bullying and sexting, the author briefly discusses what they are and what threat that occurs from them. The article is useful to me because it shows the harmfulness on what could happen on the internet. However, this article is very vague and lakes a certain amount of information to achieve its point.

The Internet plays a key role in the development of education. According to past research findings, 72% of adolescents surveyed reported using the Internet for school objectives and nearly all of them go online daily (Norris, 2007). Additionally, many interviewed teenagers and parents reported that Internet use is vital to complete school projects. Adolescents need to be educated on how to maximize the legitimacy and safety of online information. Adolescents awareness of the potential impact from internet use and exposure is a

Some parents are not aware of dangers of internet that brings to their children particularly making friends through internet. For example, their children might get cheated with someone else on internet and their children will not tell what happen to them when they encounter danger. According to BBC News, a 47 year old man defrauded a 13 year old girl online and asked to meet face to face. Luckily, the girl’s mother found out beforehand or else her daughter might be in danger. From this news, we can see that there internet friends are not always honest and they are more likely to consider as un-trustful strangers. Therefore, parents should concern more about their children, teach them about the dangers of making friends on internet, and avoid them from going out with a stranger.
