To help raise awareness about the importance of educating children and families on the topic of online safety, AOL Canada launches its third annual Online Safety Week today through a series of activities including the release of new Canadian statistics that reveal children's Internet habits and take a closer look at the dangers that exist when children are left unmonitored while online.
The AOL Canada/Leger Marketing survey reveals that the majority of parents (83 per cent) leave their child unmonitored while online and that already an alarming rate of kids younger than 13 have been bullied online (19 percent), peer pressured to visit inappropriate Web sites (22 per cent) and have chatted with a stranger online (14 per cent).
Other AOL Canada Online Safety Week activities include the launch of a nationwide contest to promote online safety in schools, the donation of KOL(TM) kids Internet service to selected public libraries across Canada, and the distribution of important information and tips for parents to help cyber-proof their children.
