Keeping Kids Safe

We are making this page in hopes of helping parents learn more about what terms mean that are used in various chat programs and how to be able to learn more on how to keep Your children and family safe from the predators that are out there in cyber-space.

Here are some of the terms that are used online

lol=laugh out loud lmao=laughing my ass off roflmao=rolling on floor laughing my ass off brb=be right back bbs=be back soon bbl=be back later pos=parents over shoulder or pile of s**t a/s/l/=age sex location gtg=got to go pls=please wb=welcome back ty=thank you omg=oh my god bff=best friends forever bbfn=bye bye for now bf/gf=boyfriend/girlfriend convo=conversation poscts=parents over shoulder change the subject idk=i dont know idc=i dont care ppl=people clean=pic of a person dressed dirty=pic showing some part of the body cyber=cybersex cam=web camera wtf=what the f**k wth=what the h**l

These are just some of the hundreds of terms that are in use on the internet by people in the various chat programs. If You or Your child ever get a sexually explicit message in any of the multiple messengers in use on the net close it out right away and if it persists report it to the abuse department of that messenger client. Please take the time to get to know A/all of the people that Your child talks to online and if You feel that something is not right with someone that Your child is talking to please then check out that person through one of the many online search directories for people and registered sex offenders that are out there. If someone is making You or Your child feel uncomfortable in a chat room please use the ignore button that is there....they work quite well
