Here's my half a penny's worth....

Larry is right - educating kids about the dangers of being online - be it, addiction, harassment, bullying, or predators - is a must. Giving them a guildelines on what to be aware of will help keep them safe, as long as they follow them. Let them know that it is OK for them to go to a trusted adult (ie. parent, teacher) if there is ANY signs of being uncomfortable about something online.

As for Dr. Phil, showing that interview with the predator, to ME, is educational. It reveals how they go about luring kids. This way, adults and kids will have an idea on what to look out for - 'danger signs'.
