Creating iLANDS of Safety for Kids Online

Sept. 6, 2008 - PRLog -- SafeWave.org Presents: “Creating iLANDS of Safety For Kids Online”
Join this free webinar on Thursday, September 25th, 2:00 – 3:00 p.m. EST*

Thousands of children a year are victims of cyber-bullying and online predators at pandemic levels. Thousands more are exposed daily to inappropriate and unwelcomed content.  Until now, care givers had two choices: completely deny their children’s access to the internet, or purchase filtering systems and hope they work. A true solution is needed. The internet is crucial to our children’s future success so we must protect them while online.

In this free online conference (“Webinar”), participants will experience first hand what makes iLAND5.com a true solution to keeping children ages 5-18 safe on the internet to do all the things they need and enjoy. This is not just filtering software, or a program of pre-selected choices. iLAND5.com is the only free, complete website of 5 age appropriate iLANDS accessed solely through a school’s verification of identity. Predators cannot pose as children on iLAND5.com. Once on an age appropriate iLAND, children can’t access inappropriate material. They are safe on their iLAND, free to play, explore, learn and interact with other children their age worldwide.

Webinar Participants Will:

Learn how to protect their children from predators online
Stop cyber-bullies
Prevent inappropriate material from reaching children online
Give children access to the benefits of the internet and eliminate the unsavory side
Webinar participants will explore iLAND5.com, the first and only free and secure internet solution for children.

Guest speaker Debbie Johnston, internet safety advocate and initiator of “Jeff’s Law” in Florida, will explain through personal experience how cyber-bullies operate, the school’s role, and what parents can do to protect their children. This webinar is a must for parents, educators, law enforcement, elected officials, government agencies, PTAs, and business. Webinar participants will be given the opportunity to register for free, giving their children access to iLAND5.com.

SafeWave.org has scheduled a 30 minute presentation followed by a live question and answer session. Instructions to join this free webinar will be emailed prior to September 25th to those who RSVP.
