CEOP Ambassador training

Just delivered this training again and the safety focus always highlights the naivety of practitioners, especially in relation to their own children. Always get people coming up to me afterwards saying that they're going to check more carefully on their teenagers...

Guess that's good for me - ticking off the outcomes, but it's also scary that people don't realise the huge potential for danger and damage.

On the flip side, the message is also about the positive and fantastic resource that the internet gives us, already changed so much since my last presentation a year ago, for example, the prevalence  of smartphones. I wonder where it can all go to and will it start to slow, or come to a complete stop at some point?

On a lighter note, watched the remastered Star Trek last night. Wow - those writers predicted it all: flip phones, blue tooth hands-free, ear pieces, GPRS. Spock's tri-corder was a bit of  a let down though - looked like a squeezy bottle mounted on a handlebar grip. Probably was!
