Kissimmee, Fla. (PRWEB) May 8, 2006 - Equipping children with the skills
they need to safely navigate the Internet is the subject of a 30-minute
talk show on Radio Disney this Saturday, May 13.
The interview is part of the weekly Kids' Concerns Show that airs in
Central Florida on Saturdays at 9 a.m. on WDYZ AM 990.
Radio Disney kidcasters K.T. and Gabe interview two Internet experts
from KUA.net, a Kissimmee-based Internet service provider owned by
Kissimmee Utility Authority. These experts include vice president of
information technology Jef Gray and Internet systems coordinator Jason
Borders.
"Most parents know that the Internet can be a valuable resource for
their children," said Gray. "What they might not realize is that
children can encounter dangerous situations on the Web -- from viewing
inappropriate materials to being asked for face-to-face meetings with
strangers."
The show addresses topics involving the safe use of the Internet, email,
instant messaging and chatrooms. The program also provides important
information on the use of passwords and the protection of personal
information.
"As an Internet provider in our community since 1998, KUA.net has a
responsibility to share both the benefits and dangers of the Internet,"
said Gray. "This radio program addresses the important issues while
keeping the message simple and fun."
