do you think that it is better for a child to be on the Internet (by themselves) or going down to a shop (by themselves)
i personally think neither is safe i mean kids are getting abducted left right and center. and god knows who could be talking to them on the Internet.
but if i had to choose which one is the most better i think that it'll be safer for the kids to go down to the shop than be on the Internet. people can find out anything on the Internet. they could pretend to be the kids best friend and get the kid to trust them just to find out information like what age they are, where they go to school, where they stay, information that a child might not click on to.
on the news its saying how a 17 year old girl had been murdered and raped by a 33 old man that was pretending to be a teen boy on facebook. shouldn't the girl have known better than to trust someone she has never meet. i mean don't get me wrong she didn't deserve what she got and my heart goes out to the parents but she should of never went to go and meet him, didn't she think it strange that there was no teen boy in the car i mean if that was me i would of took a friend with me or not botherd to go at all.

Going down to the shops locally should theworetically be safer, as that is a more controlled environment. The Internet is tantamount to inviting the entire world into your home. But that is also its strength, giving access to endless knowledge. What is required is controlling the contact both on line and in the street, so that a child knows how to respond to an approach, literal or virtual.
