PLEASE BE CAREFUL!

Be well aware of all the dangers lurking in Chat Rooms all over the Internet. Yesterday I watched a disturbing and valuable program at NBC, "Dateline", about child and teen predators. These men are deliberately looking to corrupt minors (both boys and girls). They pose as teenagers trying to meet other pre-teens or teens, when in reality they are anywhere from 25 to 60 year old depraved, sick and evil men. My advice to you is: PLEASE DO NOT GO INTO ANY CHAT ROOMS, you really don't know who you are talking to. Find true friends in school or other social activities, not in the Internet.

Learn to take care of yourselves, and avoid dangerous situations.

"LOVE, RESPECT and VALUE YOURSELF..."

Not long ago I was watching a TV News Program and they were talking about college students who drink in excess. Many young people have died or have ruined their lives in many ways because of this stupid and irresponsible behavior. It is time to speak up! Don't let anyone convince you to do things you don't really want to do - just to try to please others! You have to love, respect and value yourself MORE! Doing something just to try to please others, or try to be cool, or because you're afraid you may lose some "friends" (which are really not good friends) is really dumb. Don't fall for their tricks.

I feel terrible for what probably happened to Natalee Holloway too! (her disappearance and unknown whereabouts.) Unfortunately she is partly to blame. She drank in excess and went out with three boys that were really total strangers to her. You should NEVER drink so much that you completely lose control of what happens to you! of your life! Learn to take care of yourself. YOU ARE SPECIAL!
