ContraCostaTimes.com - Internet safer than it seems
- Quote: “Fearful parents may conjure up images of trench-coated predators trolling the Web, but the virtual world their teens actually inhabit is more like the soda shop of yesteryear or the mall — a place to hang with friends.”
Note: Nice to see more and more of these types of stories out there…this is still how a lot of hearts and minds will be won.

How do we convince parents and other educators?
Yay! Finally a mainstream-ish news story that makes sense! To Anthony, have them actually spend time on the internet and see the value in its wealth of information and interactivity. Too many parents and educators have no experience using the internet in the immersive way that their kids do. Instead they believe the scare tactics put forward by the media.
