Holy Family School: In Their Hands: Current Issues in Cyber Crime

Join the Holy Family School for a presentation by Tracy Webb, Senior Trial Attorney in charge of Cyber Crime and Child Abuse Prevention for the Los Angeles City Attorney’s Office on Sunday, March 23, 2:00 p.m. at the Holy Family Parish Hall (1527 Fremont Avenue, South Pasadena).

In the current age of technology, children can and do go online almost anywhere and anytime. They surf the Internet and send messages from a home computer, a friend’s computer, libraries, schools, PDAs, Blackberries, iPhones and cell phones.

Internet enabled video game systems allow them to contact and compete against and chat with players around the world. Cell phones enable kids to surf the web and exchange messages, photos and short videos from just about anywhere with just about anyone. Allowing kids to go online without supervision, ground rules, or parental controls, is like allowing them to explore a major metropolitan city by themselves. One cant’t watch their children every minute so please come and learn strategies to help them benefit from the vast resources of the web while avoiding many risks.
