Blog responsibly.

There is a lot of media coverage alerting parents to the unsavoury material that their kids might be viewing online -- but not many people seem to be /discussing the potential danger of irresponsible blogging.

Kids and teenagers may think they are writing a blog for their handful of friends when, in fact, they are creating a permanent digital record of their words.

I, for one, wouldn't like some of the nonsense I was spouting when I was 16 coming back to haunt me today at 32.

Even from University days. Just think how many people are posting their pictures from a wild party online? May seem like fun now, but it won't seem so great when your future employer Googles your name to find a picture of you barechested while sucking on a beer-bong.

Teens and young adults should be given the advice to at least use pseudonyms when posting online.
