But those who wait on the Lord
Shall renew their strength;
They shall nount up with wings like eagles,
They shall runs and not be weary,
they shall walk and not faint.

Is the Internet safe for us?

Everybody knows the Internet. It's great tool for education like books, music, lessons, scientific discoveries, ancient texts and literally, anything of values that can be downloaded, exchanged or passing freely using a speed of broadband.

The Internet can also be used as an instrument to exploit the very young. So, is it sage for us kids?

Adults who use the internet should always be carefull in seaching and saving their files so children could not have any access in their personal files. As kids, we should be guided in the propwe ways of seaching data and facts so as to avoid the prohibited ones. I think the best way is to have a dialog with us so we will be aware of the dangers posed by the Internet.

children like me should not tolk to strangers online. We should not give any personal information and much more, do not meet with them in person.

Technology is not a problem; technology will always evolve to fit the world's needs. Only a sustained campaign on the responsible use of technology and the internet will make a difference.
