Kids Come First was on the news in Florida and  when we posted the broadcast in a bulletin on MySpace,  we received the following emails: 

 

From Sheriff Karl Daily:

 

HEY!! Good Job - Good Story!!!!!

 

From Avery County’s Sheriff Frye:

 

Thanks, your program is a wonderful opportunity to reach out to children. I am promoting this locally by media also (i.e. newspapers and radio). Thanks for all you are doing.

 

From Lt. Rowland:

 

That’s great! I added the video to our site and the www.dunnpal.org main site.  Keep up the good work!

From a MySpace Friend:

 

WAY TO GO HON. I LOVE IT. It’s about time something good is said about MySpace and not bad. YOU ARE GREAT. LOVE YA.

 

Email from a MySpace Friend:

 

Thank you! That was great news and I'll repost it again later! That’s wonderful! People CAN make a difference!

 

Email from a MySpace Friend:

 

Thank you so very much for the very incredible job you are doing here on my space.  We all thank you so very much for all the kids in the world you are trying to keep safe. Keep up the amazing job you are all doing and thanks for being a friend.  Take care! 

 

Our program “Project LE Friends” is a huge success! Below are some comments left on Law Enforcement MySpace pages.

 

Comments on Avery County Sheriff’s page:

 

Thank you for the work that you are doing in this county, and your concern for our children's safety. As a mother of three, it makes me feel so much more secure. People need to pull their heads out of the sand here, we may have a small town, but thanks to the internet "big town" crime is prevalent here.

 

Hey Sheriff. Thanks for the add. Nice to know you are watching my back. :}

 

I just wanted to thank you for everything you do! It makes a big difference! This website is a great idea!

 

This is one of the best things I’ve ever heard of! Makes me feel so much better! Thanks for everything :)

 

Comments on Harrison County Sheriff’s MySpace page:

 

I think it’s awesome for what you’re doing. We need someone up here in northern MS to do what you’re able to do... so some kids up here would feel protected and safe...thanks for being a part of it.  

 

This page is a GREAT idea to serve as a deterrent for predators on kids' pages. GOOD JOB!

 

HEY...I HOPE YOU HAVE A GREAT WEEK. :) AND I AM SPREADING THE NEWS ABOUT THIS ACCOUNT.

I am a published author and the mother of twin nine year olds who love to play games online. In considering all of that, you would think that I would know more about what is happening online. Maybe I've had my head buried in the sand (or another book) but until a recent event when I was shocked out of my daze, I hadn't really thought much about it or even heard of your organization or Mary Conyers fight to save our kids through "Protect Every Child." Recently while doing an online search of the Clayton area for skateboard parks for my children, I clicked on a likely and innocent seeming link. Suddenly I came face to face (or whatever) with a page full of half naked women doing unmentionable things. I thank heaven my children weren't peeping around my shoulder as they so often are when we are searching for information.
After being shocked out of my sneakers, I immediately began a search on who to report the incident to and after speaking with a very nice and helpful detective, I soon realized how helpless we as the public and parents really are when it comes to protecting our children online.
Just recently I met Mary Conyers online and learned about her organization and yours. Realizing how worthwhile both are, I am determined to do all that I can to assist. I have begun to spend many hours creating special pages and links to you both on several of my websites and to email or bulletin as much information as I can to all of my online friends and readers. I wish you all the very best of luck and know that as a woman and a mother, I am behind you one hundred percent!

Barbara & Gene,

 

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your efforts in keeping children safe.  I have e-mailed your website to everyone on my list asking for their support on the Cyber Safety for Kids Act of 2006 petition. 

 

Blessed be,

Karen - New Egypt, New Jersey

I built my parents a computer for Christmas, nice huh?  Well my unit crashed (they do that you know), so I went over to their house to pay bills and I couldn't even use their new machine cause my 15 year old niece had used it and she isn't as tech savvy as some.  I swear the pop up advertisements I saw were incredible!  I'm 35, I know what sex and breasts look like.  I do not need to be reminded by pop up advertisements that open faster than you can close them!  I ended up formatting the machine and re-installing the software, a week, A WEEK after I had just finished it.  I don't believe I have ever been so mad, disgusted...just down right furious!  I really do wish you luck!  I signed the petition and sent it to everyone on my email list.  Please feel free to use my letter in any way.

PS. My mom teaches at Wake Christian Academy!  My mom and dad both teach Sunday school at Midway-Baptist Church.  Can you just imagine how disgusted they were when lets fornicate.COM would not shut off but opens new pop up windows?
