PBS would like to inform you that your kids now live their entire lives online. Instant messages, Facebook, Hubbo, BFF, etc., all the while sharing their sensitive information with Bad Guys. Your kids are also bullying each other online, but we’ll just chalk that up to youthful indiscretion.

Take a minute to stream this documentary called “Growing Up Online.” It’s the whole documentary, too, and not just highlights. I’m sure it won’t give you nightmares.
