Topic & Thesis Statement October 13, 2012 Thesis: The advancements in technology are allowing cyber predators to find their targets too easily. The cyber predators are seducing innocent children and stripping them of their safety. Parents need to protect their children by monitoring their online activity. New laws need to be created to stop these predators from getting out of prisons. They should not be let free to go and hurt a child again. Laws such as the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act of 2006, and Keeping Internet Devoid of Sexual Predators Act of 2008, help to keep tabs on the predators after they are released from prison. More laws and policies need to be enacted to protect the innocent children that are getting manipulated by these monsters.
