Warning to children and parents
Chat rooms are often used by children and are sometimes frequented by pedophiles in an attempt to initiate contact with potential victims. Predators will often pose as children and attempt to lure children into face to face meetings. Predators will often target quieter children in chatrooms hoping the attention will initaite a conversation. Parents should always be aware of what their children do online, and be very wary of secretive behaviour such as avoiding letting parents see what is on the computer screen.
Young people make friends easily, and are often willing to give out personal details like their email address, home address and phone numbers to characters they meet online, especially if the child is using the Internet from a place they think of as "safe", like home or school. Most schools try to block children from getting onto chat services using the school Internet connection, but this is not foolproof and children may just go to a friend's house or other place instead. |
