Direct Access....

For some time, we have depended on the virus protection software to keep our computers safe from hackers. This software scans each thing that attempts to access your computer, even judging the safety of sites, and analyzing the data transported through email. In my experience, these software's have been a true gem to have, and have extended the life of both personal computer, lap tops and notebooks.

Though useful and efficient, there is one thing the software's have yet to prevent; cyber-bullying.

Follow up:

Over the last few years, incidents of bullying via the internet has increased. Children have taken the after-school scuffle and taken to the internet to settle differences. The cyber-bullying incidents have lead to damaged self esteems, the loss of life, and lower academic performances.

Companies like Cyber Bullying Alert looking to form a solution for parents looking to give their students direct access to information and to put a halt to the direct access from cyberbullys.

Would not parental monitoring of a child's on-line activities be the first and best line of defense against cyber-bullying?

The best and first line of defense is always the parent, but many parents are not with their children the entire time they are online, reading each comment made. If parents would make this commitment, bullying could be deterred. We do have to keep in mind the many families who have two full time working parents, many who work 9 to 5, leaving their older children at home atleast an hour to an hour and a half without a parents wisdom and supervision.
