The Start of Something Good

As much time as I spend speaking to parents, teachers and kids about their online lives, I find that I can't always get everything out there that I want to say. So with this blog, I will try to say it all!

Although I've warned about teen blogging to the unsuspecting audiences filled with their parents, I find there is value in writing down what we know. For one thing, as I age, I am sure I will forget much of what I once knew...so, this will be my reminder, that I once knew something and wanted to share it with you, my new reader.

My goal with this blog, is to attract both parents and kids to have open and honest discussions about online habits. Kids - I am going to warn your parents when I think they need to understand something about technology that you are doing. But I am also going to trust that you will always use your best judgement (with some guidance) along the way.

Some of the posts here might draw serious critism from parents one day and their kids the next. I encourage open discussion at every turn, but NO FLAMING.

Welcome, I hope you enjoy your stay for a long time!
