Do you know where your children are?

You thought they are safe
After all, it’s only the web
But if you really care
Listen please and listen well

It is not just the web
Where information can be found
It is also a scary place
Where vultures and predators abound

You can’t be too careful
You can’t really be safe
So please talk to your children
And tell them to beware

It is not being nosy
To see where they’ve been
Who were they talking to
And what were they saying

Because just like anything else
Communication is the key
Tell your children to be wary
For their own safety

Do you know where your children are?
