CHILDREN
 When children online, they can easily
be lured into something dangerous.

dangers involved when their children
log onto the Internet.
When children talk to others online,
they don’t realise that they could
actually be talking to a harmful
person.
- As a result, there have been many been
cases where children have been convinced
to meet people they have talked with online.
- In fact, story seems to come out.
E.g:
A child or teenage lured into something
foolish, dangerous, or even deadly on line.
Exposed to extremely
inappropriate materials such as
pornographic pictures.
- While surfing the Web, reading
newsgroups, advertisements, or using
e-mail.

simply because Internet are impossible to
be controlled.
- In other words, children want to explore new
things; yet they are people on the Internet
that are just too persuasive.
