Be ware!!! You're on the internet

I believe we as people, especially young people, need to pay attention and stop being so dumb and naive about these different websites (like Myspace, Facebook, crushspot, etc.) The world is not a nice place and we need to get that through our thick heads that people don’t care about us and will use any way as possible to take advantage of us, I say use the brain that God gave you and think before you do anything.


Now about these sex offenders, I think it’s nasty and sick how they try to take advantage of people who could be their own daughter or son (age wise). I think if you’re that desperate, you need to find someone your own age or just be lonely forever. I don’t care what you do by yourself, just don’t advantage of someone.

Every time I ask my parents can I have a webpage that say “no” and now that I’m older I know why that say no because all there trying to do is protect me from the dangers of predators, but now that they let me have a webpage they make sure I don’t put any personal information out and they always make sure I’m being responsible.



How to protect yourself when you’re on WebPages (Myspace, Facebook, crushspot, tag, bebo, etc)


v Never write your full name out-always uses a nickname or write initials out.
v Never put your address out
v Never put your school name out
v Never put the state you live in , If you have to put a state, make it up
v Never give anybody but your parents your passwords. Even if it’s your best friend
v Try to only add people you know to your friends list
v Don’t go any ware with anybody, even if they seem nice
v Always think before you post anything, it can mess up your reputation
v Always tell an adult if someone online is writing or sending inappropriate pictures
v Be smart, Think safe, have fun


In conclusion, I would like to say that if you as person use these ten steps and think safe on the internet, I promise, no I guarantee that you will have a better and hazard free experience.
