Addicted to Social Networking?

Addicted to Social Networking?
~Queens District Attorney Richard Brown~ “Every parent should take heed when their child turns on their computer and goes on an interactive social networking site,” Brown said. “The defendant used just such a website to recruit a young, emotionally vulnerable child by promising to take care of her. Instead, he physically abused her and threw her into a life of degradation in which she was required to perform sexual acts with hundreds of men for money.”

Internet Prostitution

My extended family has been greatly effected by online prostitution services. I was shocked to learn that a website I frequent for local classifieds had allowed explicit postings, disguised for the purpose of soliciting women into a seemingly innocent "modeling" job. Imagine our surprise when we saw my young niece's "photos" on other youthful websites and learned of the true nature of those ads, the hard way. Sadly, an unbelievable amount of our youth get enticed into "easy money" situations, both online and in public. The internet highway is a scary place and parents should be aware and speak out. Stop the invasion! Give PROPS!
