I would like to thank you for showing your support during those stages.The main intention of this Initiative is to create social awareness and make bloggers to publish social related posts to help normal people, apart from providing constant tech related news.A single post wont change anything, but 100 or 1000, say 10K readers can make a difference. Established in 2000 by the Women’s World Summit Foundation, November 19 (today) is an international day to acknowledge the importance of preventing child abuse.What is Online Child Abuse?Online child abuse includes:Searching for, sharing and downloading images of children being physically and sexually abused.“Grooming” children in chat rooms with the intention of committing sexual abuse both online and off.I would like to stress the first point more, because if you do that, you are in fact encouraging online child abuse. Please dont do that![VIEW LARGER VERSION]Some Depressing Facts About Online Child AbuseCongressional Study says, with an estimated 24 million children now online, one out of five have been solicited for sex in the last year.A top Disney executive was recently arrested and charged with using the Internet to solicit sex with a minor.75% of children are willing to share personal information online about themselves and their family in exchange for goods and services.One in five U.S. teenagers who regularly log on to the Internet say they have received an unwanted sexual solicitation via the Web.
