I will never agree to get together with someone I "meet" online without first checking with my parents. If my parents agree to the meeting, I will be sure that it is in a public place and bring my mother or father along. I will never send a person my picture or anything else without first checking with my parents. I will not respond to any messages that are mean or in any way make me feel uncomfortable. It is not my fault if I get a message like that. If I do I will tell my parents right away so that they can contact the service provider. I will talk with my parents so that we can set up rules for going online. We will decide upon the time of day that I can be online, the length of time I can be online, and appropriate areas for me to visit. I will not access other areas or break these rules without their permission. I will not give out my Internet password to anyone (even my best friends) other than my parents.

Extractions: S.A.F.E. Network's office recently received a phone call from the NCMEC regarding a couple of typographical errors we had on this website regarding their organization. We immediately corrected these errors. There was also some concern about using their logo as a link to their page. We were unaware that it might imply favoritism to our organization on their part, we have stood her correctly they felt that the use of their curriculum scorecard was inappropriate and wanted us to remove it from the website. I explained that if a program or curriculum met their guidelines that the only way to indicate that to the general public was to show what the NCMEC expected, and which areas our program conformed to their expectations. The individual I spoke with was very gracious and in no way intimidating. Their concern was our representation of the NCMEC's curriculum scorecard on the website, again seeming to endorse our organization's materials. I can only assume that they may have feared that somehow people might get the idea that the Center is endorsing a work not of their own creation. I assured her that I would make the changes necessary so that it cannot be construed to be affiliated or endorsed by the National Center in any way.

Two major car seat manufacturers Evenflo and Graco answered the call with donations and special purchase plans through Mercury Distributing that enabled Safe Kids Worldwide to provide $20,000 worth of safety equipment to local Safe Kids coalitions in Texas communities receiving and transporting displaced families.
