The Internet opens vast new horizons for kids and youth. Their
possibly strongest opportunity consists in finding new friends, and develop
friendships into a global interpersonal network. For learning, for support
on a personal and professional level, for fun, and for everything else related
to their future.
Developing a friendship
puts other demands on a relationship than chats with strangers using a fake
identity. First, there's the challenge of meeting someone with the right
combination of interests and qualities. Next, they must do some meaningful
things together to cement their friendships.
Your niece, nephew,
and the other kids and youth out there, may well need a coach. Some older
person who may support them in their endeavours. By volunteering to work
with children, you can do good for the world, and make a difference in a
meaningful way.
In addition to helping
kids directly, there are also many other things you can do to
support them indirectly.
