====================================================================== From the HSLDA E-lert Service... ====================================================================== Mike Smith Urges Parents to Take a Look ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - "As parents, we always strive to keep our children safe," says HSLDA's president, Mike Smith. "But how are we going to keep them safe if we don't even know what the dangers are? Internet Safety 101 tells you what the dangers are--and what you can do to protect your kids. Every home schooling family should be familiar with this course." ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - I want to tell you about a remarkable new course for parents that could change the way you parent--and even save your child's life. As a father and foster parent to over 50 kids, I thought I knew all I needed to know about internet safety. But after watching some of the heart-wrenching stories in a new course called Enough is Enough: Internet Safety 101, I now realize how little I actually knew about parenting in the vast world of digital technologies and social media. While passing the Parental Rights Amendment is absolutely vital, protecting your children encompasses so much more. This powerful and practical tool will help you tremendously in protecting your own children right now. That's why I want to help you get your own set today. ...................................................................... . Watch this introductory video: http://www.hslda.org/elink.asp?id=15714 ...................................................................... . This program is so comprehensive, the name simply doesn't do it justice. Some of the material you'll see in this 4-part-DVD-course and workbooks includes: Risks and dangers of MP3 players, social networking (Facebook, Twitter, etc.), gaming devices, cyber bullying, smart phones, texting, "sexting," video streaming, and off-site computer access; Common techniques children use to evade parental controls and filters (internet acronyms, key words, innocuous word search, and more); The compelling story of a 13-year-old girl who was lured by an internet predator and became the victim of a kidnapping that almost cost her life; Testimony of a mother whose 11-year-old son became so ensnared by pornography addiction that he used a hidden camera to "decode" the secret password for his parents' home computer; Confessions of a convicted sex offender and how his addiction to pornography led him to become a predator of children through the Internet; Expert interviews on how the digital world undermines parents and impairs the long-term ability of children to make moral decisions and have healthy relationships; and Online behaviors that put children at risk for abuse and exploitation. Internet Safety 101 equips you to spot the warning signs of risky online behavior in kids, to know key paradigm shifts in technology, to understand the modus operandi of predators. Learn to use preventative measures, and how to create an atmosphere of trust between parent and child. Internet Safety 101 also contains a comprehensive list of tips and resources. This "best of the best" course addresses the most critical problems that face parents in the digital and wireless age. It will educate you about the things you didn't even know you didn't know. It will empower you to prevent the insidious dangers of digital technology from hurting your children. With the explosion of the internet and social media into a powerful worldwide medium, the danger to kids has dramatically increased. Predators prowl this digital world--where parents are often the immigrants and kids are the natives--creating a perfect storm for the exploitation of children. I believe so strongly that this course should be in every home with children that I made arrangements with the producer so that Parentalrights.org can offer it as a premium for your donation of $100 or more. I hope you will take advantage of this great opportunity. Donate here: http://www.hslda.org/elink.asp?id=15672 I'm so serious about every family getting this information that I'll make an offer even to those of you who can't afford it. First, I encourage you to watch the program in a group. If you can't manage that either, then call me. I'll tell you where you can get the program at retail price. Frankly, you won't save a lot, but I know that sometimes every dollar helps. But if you can, I urge you to get your own copy by donating through ParentalRights.org. Your donation will put vital information into your hands now to empower you as parents, and it will help carry forward the work of ParentalRights.org to pass the Amendment ( http://www.hslda.org/elink.asp?id=15674 ) which will permanently ensure your right to protect your own children. Empower yourself to protect your kids in this vital area. Order your copy of Internet Safety 101 today by donating $100 or more to ParentalRights.org: http://www.hslda.org/elink.asp?id=15674 Sincerely, Jim Bentley Executive Director P.S.--As a parent, you can't protect your child from the dangers you don't know about. I urge you to get your copy of Internet safety 101 today!
