hey another idea...

I am listed in phone book...BUT I dont have my address listed in there

so when I looked up my number..said my initial and last name..then just town and state....so they would have to dig more I guess.....

anyhow...another example of why you have to be open and honest with kids....letting them know there are people out there that can harm kids...and that they can find you on the net..so to never give out name.phone or address...

I never thought hey dont talk to stangers covers things, as someone who comes up saying I lost a cat can you help me..or to a young kid..hey can I take you down the street for ice cream....you would be amazed how many kdis would say yes....
so I have always given examples..to the kids....then asked what they would do....and sure enough when son was young..he said yeahh ice cream...

then I explained if that occurred you would find mom or dad....or another adult....and once found me...we could go for ice cream...or whatever...

be smart/ be safe/ be aware!! hugsss thanks for the info..sarah
