Help Keep Kids Safe Online!

Today I was checking out the usual sites I keep in tune with, and saw on Izzy Neis's blog this great video:


Common Sense in partnership Google created this video which is a step by step, easy to understand, and well made video to educate about internet safety. Common Sense is a nonprofit organization, which has the main purpose of providing parents with trustworthy information to help manage their kids media lives.

And for all the naysayers who are thinking, "oh you're off the topic, Buddy- what does this have to do with Marketing to Children"--Well Bubs, here's what I'm thinking:
I've been doing so much digging in the past 2 months now reading about companies, products, etc. that target children or are getting in trouble for campaigns that are negatively affecting children. With all this new knowledge and education I have not even once sat back an thought, "Gee, with the huge soar of popularity of the internet with children these days--do kids even know how to be safe online." So many companies use the internet, whether it is for promotions, campaigns, etc. I think there are many companies that could use a little social responsibility lesson.
