There is no doubt we now live in an “Internet Age.” At the click of a mouse, you can e-mail hundreds of people simultaneously, buy that long-desired vintage automobile, or create a personal profile to share with the world. With unlimited opportunities, cyberspace may well have become the new “final frontier.” How best can we explore this frontier? How can we minimize risk and maximize safety? How can we help families be secure in their Internet activities? These are important questions, and we invite parents and their children to participate in this important discussion as part of Internet Safety Night.Hosted this year by parents at St. Clement School in Des Peres, Missouri, Internet Safety Night is a nationwide event that brings information and resources to students, parents and members of the community to help us all stay safer online. Your group of parents and community members is invited to join via videoconference to interact with Lt. Joe Laramie, Director of Missouri’s Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force; Cherisse Thibault, Missouri KidsFirst; and Justin Glick, Missouri Attorney General’s Office.
Topics will include online predators, cyber-bullying, identity theft and other Internet-related issues “This is such an important issue – it is absolutely critical for kids, parents and community members to be on the same page with regard to online safety,” said Randy Raw, Manager of Network Security at MOREnet. “The Internet is a fantastic learning tool, but like any tool, people need to understand what the risks are and how to use it safely.”
