Well with 2007 comes new beginnings starting with a brand new OSA NetworK started today on a new platform (SMF) and service, I wanted the new forum to be easy to use and safe.
March 5, 2007 (Press Release) --
/24-7PressRelease/ - MIDWAY, UT, March 05, 2007 - Each year across the United States we can find more and more children online. If used correctly and responsibly the Internet is an information tool that can educate and entertain. However, when used inappropriately or irresponsibly it is a serious and dangerous environment. The fact is simple; parents must take the time to educate themselves and their children about Internet safety and take an active role in their online activities.
One of the first lessons a parent teaches their child is "Don't talk to strangers". We explain that in the real world, there are good people and bad people; the statistic is same for online users. Many people, including children, have been confronted with material that is disturbing or inappropriate while online.
Since 2005, the hottest new places to be and belong to are social networking communities, such as MySpace, Friendster, Facebook, Digg and Delicious. These communities are the nightclubs of the new millennium, social networks for every young, online user. As parents struggle to get a handle on everything their young children are exposed to on the Internet, the OSA Network supplies you with those tools and more. You can share your thoughts and ideas with like-minded parents and look for solutions for you and your children's online security issues.
To help parents become better educated, senior editor of www.OnlineSecurityAuthority.com, publisher and national researcher Bill Wardell has created a brand new Online Security forum, completely updated to a new SMF platform, new template and colors, the overall look and feel have changed but the information portal has improved immensely, dealing the issues of the day. A great deal of knowledge can be gained by posting questions and reading others posts and replies. The forum is full of simple step-by-step approaches on all the major security issues; also learn how to protect our children from online predators and pedophiles! OSA gives answers in real-time at: www.OnlineSecurityAuthority.net
"The fact is; one wrong decision, and your child's safety can be taken away or invaded and it happens in mere seconds!" - Bill Wardell
While children need a certain amount of privacy, they also need parental involvement and supervision in their daily lives. The same general parenting skills that apply to the "real world" also apply while online. Bill will answer questions like:
· What is the #1 Danger for Children online?
· As a parent what should be my biggest concern? What should I do first?
· How serious are the concerns about MySpace?
· What is Internet bullying?
If you have cause for concern about your children's online activities, talk to them. Also seek out the advice and counsel of teachers, librarians, and other parents. Having open communication with your children, using computer resources, and getting online yourself will help you obtain the full benefits of these systems, and alert you to any potential problem that may occur with their use.
With no "real end" in sight for cyber crimes and without stiff penalties and punishments, there is no deterrence for cyber criminals. Since the development and growing popularity of social networking and friend sites, issues of online safety have become of even greater concern.
Bill Wardell and www.OnlineSecurityAuthority.net believes now is the time to take action! Its time to say, "Enough is enough". By taking responsibility for your children's online computer use, parents can greatly minimize any potential risks of being online. Make it a family rule and talk to your kids today. Parents now have another great resource to learn, share and build relationships with other parents going through the same issues of the technology age.
