Internet Safety?

Hola,

In today's society with advancing technology there is an increasing interest in the protection of children. There have been a few websites that have dedicated their time and resources to do just that. Many companies have developed computer games for children to help them avoid bad situations for children. One of my favorite games was created by Microsoft and co-created by Bad Guy Patrol and Alberta children's services. The game is a group of wild animals that play characters, that compose a group named the Bad Guy Patrol. They were created to assist children with safely browsing the Internet. The characters are Thinking Owl, Chatting Charlie, Block em' Betty, and Careful Cara. This game leads children through a Base camp and they must answer a series of questions before they can acquire the flag for that level. There are four levels that the children must complete. I believe that if schools impose a rule requiring children to play these games then our children will be more protected.
