Description
Do you know there are over 300,000 registered sexual predators and hundreds of thousands of unregistered sexual predators with Internet access? And that your child may be chatting online with one or more of the sexual predators daily? Professor Gulu’s CHILDREN IN THE CHAT ROOM is a suspenseful tale of how an online predator uses kindness, gifts, and affection to lure an innocent young girl into his chamber of horror. This story is a must-read for every parent, guardian, and educator, and it emphasizes the need for each to educate, supervise, and monitor every child skillful enough to access the Internet. The storybook reflects real-life situations, includes quizzes, critically important parent-child safety tips and helpful family resources. In addition, the story fosters positive parent-child interaction and dialogue, assesses youth levels of comprehension, and deepens youth insight and understanding on important child safety and healthcare issues. The book is also part of Professor Gulu's National Child Safety Campaign. The campaign includes books and music CDs on gang violence and gun safety, Internet predators, fire safety, no talking and texting while driving, seat belt safety and other important child safety topics. Never before has a learning series been developed to help parents, guardians, and educators so easily explain and teach children on the most serious and difficult topics. Please remember, children should never give out personal information such as telephone numbers, home addresses, Credit Card numbers, name and location of their school, including parents’ work address and phone numbers without their parents’ permission.
