[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would never allow my young child to make friends on the Internet. I have to approve all who follow my daughter and the rule is that I have to know everyone. Aren't you concerned about predators who make up fake profiles?[/quote] I'm the one who is doing a swap this summer with a girl DD met online. Yes, I am concerned about predators. That's why DD and the girl have FaceTimed, that's why DD and I have had talks for years about putting out info about her school, her neighborhood, etc., including "tricky" questions like "What are your school colors?" and what to do if she's worried she's gone too far or things have taken a weird turn. That's why I've FaceTimed with the mom of the girl and know what she and her husband do for a living, etc. You can't stop your children from talking to strangers. You CAN teach your children HOW to talk to strangers, and HOW to notice alarm bells and red flags.[/quote]
