Grooming is another extremely serious Internet threat that is causing great concern. This type of threat is aimed mainly at young people. Typically, an older person will use the Internet and its services, particularly chat rooms and social networking sites, to communicate with younger people. The groomer will not give accurate information about themselves and in many cases will pretend to be a younger person.
How to prevent it
Put a computer in a family room and have a parent monitor check it.
Talk to them about the dangers of being in a chatroom
If you are meeting up with them take someone with you
Don't give out personal details
speak to your friends about it
