A lot of young girls know what can happen if they are not careful but a lot of them are still under the impression that "that can't happen to me" they don't feel that they could get hurt, because that stuff happens to "other girls". Well that's one reason I can think of, another is that they feel they have gotten to know this stranger and they assume that now they know exactly who he is and he's not a bad person because he told me so. Some of them think it's an adventure, meeting someone new and leaving with him. At that age if a girl hears "I love you" they believe that the gentlemen truely means it.

At the end of the day you will have to rely on your own judgement whether you think you're dealing with a decent person or a psycho nutter. It is a lot easier to figure that out face-to-face than online. There are plenty of dos and don'ts you should observe. DON'T give out personal info on line to someone you've never seen face to face. Do not reveal details like exactly where you live, your phone number(s), where you go to school or work. Don't even give your surname. DO meet up somewhere public and busy (in case you need to shout for help). Like a cafe or the library. DON'T agree to meet anywhere isolated. DON'T agree to go anywhere isolated with the online person until after a few meetings. DO bring a good friend to the meeting so they can tell you what they think, too. DO Tell other people where you are going and who you think you're meeting. If you have any reservations, then show your friends the messages/emails you've had from this other person before meeting them. DO, If the online-friend has clearly lied to you about anything important -- like their age -- end the friendship. It's not worth it dealing with dishonest people. Look I know lots of people who have meet, dated and married from meeting online.....the chances of you meeting up with a crazy person is no more than if you meet someone in a bar! Just follow the guidlines and you'll be safe! :-D Goodluck

Young girls go through a phase of naivete and are attracted to anything that makes them feel older. Whether it be sneaking lipstick on at school, secretly buying frilly underwear without their parents' permission or knowledge, or telling that college boy that they are 18 when their actually 14. They live in a world where "That won't happen to me!". This phase use to be harmless when parents' biggest fear was their daughters necking and coming home with hickeys. We live in a more dangerous world and access to our young people is far easier than it use to be. Curfews are no longer "before the street lights come on" but 10, 11 and even as late as 1:00 a.m. Teens are more computer savvy then their parents. . .and parents, while they know this, continue to allow them to have pc's in their bedrooms and extend them the "trust" card. I was young, dumb and full of teen angst once too - so I know how it was to be so easily tempted and to feel invincible. Until parents lay down the iron fist, set some limits for their daughters, stay active in their lives (socially,emotionally, mentally, and physically) our daughters will continue to become lambs for the slaughter by these sickos.

Not everyone does it, of course. I'm sure the statistics are less than a minority as well.
The media always takes the most powerful story and blows it up times a million. Now, everyone is afraid of their kid getting involved in MySpace and meeting strange people and traveling to Israel. If you tell your kid not to talk to weird people online, they'll listen. Some kids, one in a lot, don't know better and their story is plastered everywhere to scare those at home. The media wants to keep us afraid for some reason...

Someone tells them the things they want to hear and makes promises to make them feel good about themselves. The girls are too young to see it for what it really is. Those guys are tricky and bad.

I think its because they want to show thier parents they don't need to have thier guidance and all that rebellious carp. Personally, I think they're kind of naive; they think that thier better than all the rest and they won't have anything happen to them. I call it: immature.

they want to venture out of what they know to know if it really is what people say it is. young girls have to see it to believe it and then its too late.
