Childhood Safety
Years ago, there was an advertising campaign that announced the time, and said "Do you know where your children are?" Most recently, a local TV station, KCBD has been airing the advertisement "It's 10 O'clock, Do You Know What Your Children Are Doing?" I think that is great, and it gets to the heart of the matter that so many children are home, hopefully safe in their own homes, in their own bedrooms, even, but accessing so many dangerous sites on the Internet. And of course, children at home, who are offered absolute privacy by their parents, can be engaged in other risky behavior in their own rooms. When I was growing up, my bedroom was my bedroom, but I had no expectation of absolute privacy. While I was growing up, I sometimes resented that, but as an adult, I think that is a safety net for children if used discreetly.
