Just by reading these replies the teenagers make a very valid point! Parents and educaters are dumb! They will completely remain so, long as they treat kids as some sort of property and not as respectable human beings. The fact is that WE are the cause of the dangers out there. When we have such negative attitudes aginst our youth that lets others subject them to the vulnrabilities of the dangers that are out there! The fist thing we need to do is to admit that they ARE HUMAN BEINGS AND NOT things you own! You have to realize your OWN mistakes and eduate youself! That includes running a safe and secure Operating System like Linux or Mac OSX and not Windows, blaming every virus YOU catch on your kids!
