The Internet has brought communities across the globe closer together through instant communication.

Make no mistake; child predation on the Internet is a growing problem.

Dying should not be a taxable event.

Social networking sites like Myspace, Friendster, and Facebook have literally exploded in popularity in just a few short years.

The best defense against these people is to educate parents and children of the dangers that come along with the Internet and by limiting access to certain sites during the school day.

Predators will look for any way to talk to children online whether through sites like Myspace, instant messaging, or even online games.

Anyone can use these sites - companies and colleges, teachers and students, young and old all make use of networking sites to connect with people electronically to share pictures, information, course work, and common interests.
