Everyone Is Lying! (Hawk)

This is a re-post originally submitted on 2/8/2002 I thought it wouldn't hurt to share it again with the new members because they probably missed it.

Many children are so caught up in the internet that they fail to realize the dangers of chatting with people. There are adults in chat rooms just looking for a kid to talk to them and eventually arrange a place to meet and hurt them. I have always assumed that the type of kids who spend way too much time in chat are probably the type who really don't have many friends in real life. The Oprah show yesterday confirmed my thoughts. These people will act like they have the same interests as the child. All they have to do is read their profile and suddenly they have everything in common! The kids are sop naive and just think it's great they have someone who finally "understands" them. Before they know it they're meeting some stranger, finding out he's (or she's) really 40 years old and ready to take away their innocence. KIds believe to much when they're in a chat room. They should always assume "everyone is lying".Denver police officers Mike and Cassandra Harris have put 48 sexual predators behind bars. They offer parents some pointers for knowing if your children may be in danger.

These types of children may be vulnerable to sex offenders.

Children with low self esteem

Shy and lonely children

Overweight children

Children of divorced parents



Signs to Look for in Your Child

Here are some signs to look for if you're concerned your child may already be involved in an inappropriate online relationship.

Your child spends a lot of time online.

You find your child online after bedtime.

Your child turns off the computer when you walk into the room.

Your child receives phone calls from adults.

You find long distance calls from numbers you don't recognize on your phone bill. Your child receives mail from someone you don't know.

Your child becomes withdrawn.

Have you ever wondered if your kids might be hiding something from you online? They might be talking about you and you don't even know it. Here are some secret codes kids use in chat rooms when they don't want others to know what they're really talking about.

Code/Meaning:

POS Parents Over Shoulder

P911 My parents are coming, watch your language

TA/SA Teacher / Sibling Alert

:OX Shhh! It's a secret.

CTN Can't Talk Now

Make sure your children understand that if he or she gives your phone number to someone online, someone can easily find your address and get a map to your house. Tell your children not to reveal details about themselves like their grade, school name or sport jersey number that could help someone dangerous find them.

And before you think no one would be stupid enough to give out this kind of information....think again, because people have and do. There have been many accounts where kids have been beaten, molested/raped by child internet stalkers.

How it changed my life: It hasn't changed my life. The information just confirms thoughts I already had.

Date: 8/19/2002 4:07:00 PM  From Authorid: 50864    Sad but true and good advice for adults as well. No one regardless of age should believe everything they are told online. And maye even more important don't tell everything about yourself either be careful what info you give online

Date: 8/19/2002 4:19:00 PM  From Authorid: 2030    Great post Hawk, It's been documented that the vast majority of Pediphiles arrested have regularly used the internet at one time or another to attempt to meet children. Beware of where your kids go on the net and who they talk to.

Date: 8/19/2002 5:23:00 PM  From Authorid: 41067    Very good idea to re-post this, what with all the things that have been going on recently.

Date: 8/19/2002 5:39:00 PM  From Authorid: 38474    Great and informative post. Thank you for taking the time to repost it.  
Date: 8/20/2002 2:14:00 PM  From Authorid: 46005    This is a wonderful post, and Im thankful that there are people like you who care enough about other kids to take time to post something like this. I have actually been confronted by a child pedophile while online under my 16 year old cousins name, he ran fast when i told him who i was..... theres some sick people out there, and sometimes they could even be places like here where we dont expect them!  
Date: 8/20/2002 2:27:00 PM  From Authorid: 4548    disturbing to think about, but this is pricesless information these days. even when people claim to be saying inappropriate things in "jest" warning bells should still go off. thank you for posting this.  
Date: 8/20/2002 3:54:00 PM  From Authorid: 37101    I'm 14. I've been taught all this, I know all this and I understand all this. -

Date: 2/16/2005 10:04:00 PM  From Authorid: 62146    I never have beens talked over that net. and I ahve been sueing the internet since I was 14 I am now 17 and am fine.
