CSI Presentation

CSI? No, not the TV show. CSI is the State of Michigan's Cyber Safety Initiative. Yesterday all three grade levels heard a presentation from our Attorney General's Office. The presentation hit on a number of topics including cyber bullying, sending inappropriate photos/texts and the dangers involved with social media (meeting strangers online). This is a GREAT opportunity to have some ongoing conversations with your child on these topics. The "it'll never happen to me" mindset is not only common but expected at this age...I know it was (and sometimes still is) with me. Driving home the danger of internet predators, cyber bullying and the idea of once it's out there; it's out there forever (inappropriate photos, comments, etc.)is something they can't hear this enough.
