sourrrrrrr(ces)

this is just a couple of people i would like to talk to about my feature, internet safety.

1. Det. Dean Textor or Det. Michael Steitz from the Wall Township Police.
they deal specifically with crimes in which children and teenagers are involved.
according to the website, i can call 732-449-4800.

2. National Center for Missing & Exploited Children
they deal with children who are missing, abducted, and exploited, and occasionally, these children are victims of internet predators.
while i am not entirely sure who i would talk to specifically, the general phone number is 1-800-THE-LOST

3. Neil Izenberg, MD
editor-in-chief and founder of KidsHealth.org, and writer of their Internet Safety: Safe Surfing Tips for Teens article.
the website says they cannot reply to everyone BUT members of the media can email their PR at PR@KidsHealth.org.

4. Wall High School Students
it's important to get a teen's perspective on the iddue of teen safety, and their are many questions that could be put into a questionaire and handed to students. it's very possible that many students aren't aware of online harassment, or don't take precautions against it, and it would be interesting to learn how much wall students know about their safety online.
