Chief Chip! Helping our children & young adults to stay safe online.

Are your children safe in your home? Are you connected to the Internet at home? Who knows more about computers… you or your children? Do you have rules for Internet use? Do you think your rules follow your child to: school, library, or a friend’s house. Chief Chip, through education, removes the victim before the crime occurs!

Why should you care about Cyber Crime ? 1 pedophile abuses, on an average, 235 children! 1in 5 children on the Internet are sexually solicited. A group of 100,000 children on the Internet will have 20,000 children solicited… with only 1 out of 4 children telling their parent or guardian. In the group of 20,000 solicitations only 4,000 children will tell their parents or guardians. Adults can legally distribute adult content to children on-line without any legal ramifications. 70% of incidents occurred in the home.

What is being done about this epidemic? The Federal government funds two investigators per state for chat room cyber crime investigations. These investigators try to catch pedophiles online by acting like a child to lure the pedophile to them. This is only one small part of the solution. Even the investigators confirm that they are way over worked and under staffed. Outline in the Charlotte Observer February 12, How can anyone in law enforcement address the problem adequately? There is an estimated 189 million chat rooms that exist on the Internet with an average of 230,000 new chat rooms being added each month. Several providers like AOL have staff that monitor their chat rooms. April 17, 2005, an AOL Internet Chat Room monitor was arrested for luring a 15 year old girl for sex while he was working to keep children “safe”.
