Being a parent in today's "high tech" environment is tough enough! Being aware of the potential harm your child faces out on the "information highway" is essential. DATING 911 isn't just for those "looking for love" but is a book about communication on the internet...SMART COMMUNICATION! If you or your child are not aware of the potential pitfalls of exploring the internet then this book is a MUST READ! Great information on "what to" and "what not to do" when your surfing around on the computer. Covers all communication types and pointers to avoid "identity theft" or "theft of your personal life" from today's would be "high tech criminals"!

I found this book to be very helpful with lots of great advise. It's good for anyone - parents of teens that chat online, teens themselves, adults of all ages, people just starting to get into online dating/chat and people who have been using the internet for years. I recommend this to anyone interested in dating/chatting online.
