Are Your Children Safe On The Internet?

Today, children spend a considerable amount of time surfing the web. Chances are, they probably know more about the computer than you do. They e-mail, download software, and the like, and may even talk to strangers; sometimes without knowing any better. But the question is, are they safe?

Remember, our children are our responsibility, and put them in our care so that we can train them up in the way they should go (Proverbs 22:6). This means that we, as parents and guardians, should take an active role in monitoring all of our children's activities, even their Internet usage.


The Internet is like a double-edged sword: on the one hand, it is a great research and educational tool right at your fingertips; and on the other hand, it is an additional avenue for tricksters, predators, and con artists, which can put our children in danger and at risk. And since we are answerable to
for our children's well-being and safety, here are eight important online safety rules to keep you and your family safe:

1. Use filtering tools available on most web services and browsers. Go to
getnetwise.org for more information on filtering tools.
2. Teach your children never to give out personal information such as name, address, telephone number, parent's information or school information without parental consent.
3. Your children should never agree to meet or get together with someone they meet online.
4. Your children should never send anyone their picture or anything else without parent's permission.
5. Teach your children never to respond to email messages from people they do not know, or that make them feel uncomfortable.
6. Children (and adults) should never give anyone their Internet password.
7. Make sure that your children understand the risks of revealing personal information and their email address online.
8. Discuss and post online rules near the computer as a reminder.

It is important that we be involved in our children's online activities. Our Messiah, , has taught us to monitor the company our children keep, to know where they are going at all times, and so on. So, why not know what your children are doing on the Internet and the websites that they frequently visit.

Syracuse University has 10 Full Rides for African American Men and Women   interested in Studying Architecture.
Mark Robbins, Dean of Syracuse   University's School of Architecture is desperately seeking young men and  women of color interested in pursuing a five year professional degree in Architecture. He says he's deeply committed to bringing diversity to his   field and has scholarship money set aside to fully cover education costs for 10 students. He says that Hispanic enrollment in the school has increased substantially, but it's been harder to attract Blacks. Syracuse  University School of Architecture has a great reputation and this seems  like a terrific opportunity, so please share this info!

The Link & Option Center Debuts Live Talk Show on CAN-TV21
“The Community Link Live Talk Show” airs Fridays through April 1

The Link & Option Center (TLOC), a non-profit human services organization that services
at-risk children, adolescents and their families in Chicago and south suburban Cook County,
is pleased to announce the debut of its live, call-in program, The Community Link Live
Talk Show, airing Friday, Jan. 8 on CAN TV21.

For the next 13 weeks The Community Link Live Talk Show will air every Friday at 4 p.m.
and feature special guests including community leaders, local government officials, and staff
and students from TLOC. Ms. Twin Green, founding President and CEO of TLOC,
will be the show’s first guest.

“This talk show is just one way we can communicate TLOC’s mission to a wider audience
and showcase our programs to families who may not be familiar with us,” said Ms. Twin Green,
founding President and CEO of The Link & Option Center. “Through our organization, we hope
to provide children and their families with progressive opportunities for learning, mentoring,
academic support and vocational training.”

Ms. Green founded TLOC in 1995 in response to the struggles her 8-year old son was experiencing
in school. His lack of focus and direction, due to the separation between he and his father, was
taking him down a negative path filled with failing grades and delinquency. As she worked with
her son, she discovered that this was what she was meant to do: to inspire and help unfocused
youth to stay in school, rise above their situations and strive to achieve their fullest potential.

“While helping my son and other youth in similar situations, I saw a growing need for structured,
academic tutoring in the community,” said Ms. Green. “Eventually, the needs of the community led
The Link & Option Center to expand its programming from providing only educational support
to offering mentoring services, family-centered referral services, computer training, an alternative
to school suspension program, anger management, 6th District Court diversion, and Juvenile Justice
mental health counseling.

The Community Link Live Talk Show’s format will focus on programming and services The Link
& Option Center provides to the community, which includes: Excel Beyond the Bell (tutoring program);
Alternative to School Suspension and Intervention; TeenREACH After School Program; Mentoring;
Mental Health Juvenile Justice Counseling; Mentoring Children of Prisoners/Caregivers Choice;
6th District Court Diversion (Peer Jury); and Adult Probation Treatment Services.

For more information on The Link & Option Center or the Community Link Live Talk Show,
please contact (708) 331-4880.

To schedule an interview with Ms. Green, please contact Melissa Schuler at (646) 752-6427 or melissa@link-option.com.

AFRICAN AMERICAN STUDENTS ARE NOT APPLYING

Even if you do not have a college-aged child at home, please share this with someone who does, pass this scholarship information on to anyone and everyone that comes to mind. Though there are a number of companies and organizations that have donated money for scholarship use to African Americans, a great deal of the money is being returned because of a lack of interest.

No one is going to knock on our doors and ask if we can use a scholarship.

Take the initiative to get your children involved. There is no need for money to be returned to donating companies because we fail to apply for it.

Please pass this information on to family members, nieces, nephews, friends with children etc. We must get the word out that money is available. If you are a college student or getting ready to become one, you probably already know how useful additional money can be. Our youth really could use these scholarships.
