Colleges, Potential Employers, Future Clients and Networking Sites

We keep hearing about more and more people searching online for background information on potential new employees, college applicants, or if someone is considering using your business for a service or trade.

Parents need to take the time now with their kids to show them what they create on their MySpace profiles, Facebook, Friendster and other Social Networking sites could potentially effect their future.

We, as parents, need to make them aware of what they put on there today - could effect them tomorrow. Of course, kids don’t quite understand that the future comes faster than they can imagine. After-all, in most cases college is years away! (In reality they are only 2-8 years away - which isn’t that far off, but feels like an eternity to a child).

Take the time to offer examples and show how what they may deem as funny today, could potentially cause embarrassment later. Remember, what is posted on the net today - has the potential of staying there forever!

Teaching your kids to make smart online decisions is now part of parenting our kids today. One service I always recommend parents consider, that is very cost effective, is Reputation Defender MyChild. This service helps monitor your child’s activity that is relevant to their name and privacy.

Another article I found to help parents and offer tips is Colleges and Networking Sites by Connect with Kids. Take a moment to check out the Tips for Parents.

Sue Scheff Continuing to be a Voice for People being Abused on the Internet

It is time to rise above Internet Defamation and fight back!

I have recently meet with a Florida Senator as well as a prominent attorney regarding Internet Defamation and the fact there are limits to free speech when slander is involved. It is not about removing your first amendment right, it is about not being liable. Defaming a person can lead to legal consequences.

Speaking out has caused my critics to further slander me, but it will never silence me. With more and more lawsuits being filed and more and more laws firms accepting these cases on contingency, more people that believe they can defame others will be held accountable.

Sue Scheff - Introducing the New Website of Reputation Defender

As a client of Reputation Defender and a Parent Advocate I can speak from first hand experiences of the value of this service, not only for me (as jealous people try to ruin my online reputation) but for parents that have children that surf the net.

Reputation Defender MyChild is a service that many parents should consider to monitor your child's online privacy.

I am not a spokesperson for Reputation Defender, I am someone that has used their services and can speak from first hand experience. Until you become a victim of Internet Defamation or people invade your private life, it is hard to understand the toll it can take on you personally or your family.

Sue Scheff - Bringing the Truth to the Top!

After having major media outlets interested in my story and the priceless service of Reputation Defender and MyEdge - there will always be people that feel this is a way to freeze their freedom of speech.

It couldn't be further from the truth. Your first amendment doesn't condone defamation and other libelous acts. My $11.3M "jury verdict for damages" - not a default verdict - was rendered after hours of deliberation and not taken lightly. The jurors went through hundreds of defamatory posts.

All the reputable media outlets I interviewed with, including Washington Post, Forbes, San Francisco Chronicle, Wall Street Journal, 20/20 ABC News and others know my whole story - both victorious jury trials - as well as my mistakes.

I have made a lot of mistakes, as many have, but I am willing to share them to help others. It may put me in the hot seat, however the good that comes from it is worth it.
