    This talks about the kids and the effects it could have on them. "October 2011 marks the eighth annual National Cyber Security Awareness Month, sponsored by the Department of Homeland Security. The overarching theme for National Cyber Security Awareness Month is "Our Shared Responsibility," which reflects the interconnectedness of the modern world and the message that all computer users have a role in securing cyberspace. This is especially true when it comes to keeping our children safe in a worldwide environment."
