Binura Gunasekera in between their work session. Say they need to type an essay that takes 2hours; this person would take around 5. The problem is your concentration is being taken over by boredom and stress that you need to occupy yourself with something else. This something else can be as simple as a snack or playing a game and of course the most common one, checking your Facebook for 5 minutes. As a parent, the best way to help your child out is to always check in on what their school is introducing. This can include tests, assignments that need to finished etc. This is crucial because, then a parent can take the responsibility of splitting set task into parts and making it much more manageable. For example: There is a ten page report that you must do, the parents responsibility is to take 15 minutes of their day back from work to organize the students work for them (into equal parts, and no not two halves). This way the student can set a goal as to, what should be finished when. This way the student will have a healthy sleep cycle that is not flying all over the place and be finished with their work in advance. This extra time they have before the due date should be used to edit their works to even more so enhance the quality of their assignments. Another tactic to help your children stay ready for school is to; always check on what they are doing in their free time. Why? Well many students make the mistake (yes it is a mistake) of going on to social media websites, such as Facebook and Twitter. The environment to which teenagers are exposed to on these websites is very awkward and inappropriate. Due to the air of these websites students will often have the habit of behaving in similar ways and using vulgar language to communicate in and out of class. Many students will also post inappropriate content onto these websites. These things can never be retrieved once it has been put out there, thus once you make a mistake it will come back someday to haunt you. There are several stories of people applying for jobs and being unable to get jobs (despite their being very successful) because of their history on social media. That is right, employers check these things before hiring someone. However, it is not just these horrendous social media websites that are engraving mature content into the innocent minds of children but the movies as well. There are countless students who watch adult rated content without their parents consent. This is ridiculous and can leave horrible scars on a childs life. Moreover many games that students play in the current time such as GTA V or Call of Duty have very mature content inside of it. Both are Rated M games. This means that a person should not be exposed to games of this nature until they are 17. These games have lots of cursing, gore, and in GTA V there is even prostitution. So, please parents check in on your children every now and then and help them. Thank you very much for reading this article.

Binura Gunasekera and edited it. There are many examples of this all over YouTube. There is even one where there is a trailer using him. So think before you post and always inform an adult if you run into a problem on the internet. Here is a very nice acronym which should be taken into thought prior to any posts. Never give any explicit pictures to anyone, let alone posting. This is actually the number one rule to safety on the internet. If the popular girl at school hates you, I highly doubt that she would give your pictures and address to a pedophile, most likely she would threaten you with this picture. When you post something on the internet as stated above it cannot be retrieved form every person on the Earth, ever. Therefore if you post something that is well not normal and reveals any sort of private areas they can be accessed by everyone in the world. Why is this? Well lets say you took a nude picture of yourself and posted it on your Facebook. Now lets also say you have your settings set to have nobody aside from specific people such as your friends see these pictures. These friends have access to your nude pictures and can do whatever they wish with them. Yes you had your settings set perfectly secure, however the people whom have access to this trash can post it wherever they wish. These kinds of pictures appeal to many kinds of people who you never want to meet (cough cough* pedo). However there is one more point to this topic, it is directly giving these pictures to someone. This is very insecure and just as stupid as well but, in a sense it is much better than the previous choice. In this procedure you give away these explicit pictures to just one person and they make the choice that will decide your future. Take Amanda Todd for example. This was an extremely moving and tragic story. She was essentially a lone wolf who had no friends. She was desperately looking for friends online through webcam and such. Whilst her, what was supposed to be wonderful friend finding journey, she met a certain individual. This individual was very flattering and somehow convinced Amanda to show him a nude picture of herself. Sure enough though reluctantly, she sent him a picture. That picture was what ruined her life, and slowly dragged her to her inevitable death. After having received the pictures from Amanda, he blackmailed her and told her to put on a show for him. She declined, and as a result her nude picture was everywhere on Facebook. No matter how many times she moved schools, her one mistake came back to push her down to the depths of sadness. She was beaten, used for sexual favours and then eventually pushed into suicide. Chewed up, spit out and trampled on. This is the life that leads for those who cant keep private parts private. Once you lend this picture to someone, its their decision if they want to give that picture over to their buddies, and it suddenly becomes their decision if they want to hand this picture over to other people, with much worse intentions.

A message to parents: To make incidents like these happen to a minimum amount, it is a must that you take the initiative and leadership to check in on your childs Cyber Status every now and then. Why is this crucial? This is necessary to keep your children safe from predators on the internet. This is also essential to ensure that your child is not being an internet jock. Which simply put means, a bully on the internet. Everyone should refrain from using derogatory phrases and MOST DEFINITELY refrain from spreading any private images. Do not interpret this message in a different way than intended, no do not stalk everything your children do, just monitor what they do every now and then.
A message to students: Do not be a loser on social media. Just because you are behind the screens of your laptops, does not mean that it is permitted to post filth directed to any individual. This mentality will help you to not get beat up in school. What if it was me? This is something that nobody ever thinks of when they post something or say something. Also if one person is getting harassed on the internet and you are just sitting there and typing lol, omg in the comments, then please do not breed, at all. It does not help to stand there and read the drama feed. Go and tell an adult immediately, what would you do if it was you? If some loser was harassing you and all the bystanders were doing was laughing at what the bully was saying. Help someone out, and inform an adult. Thank you for reading this article.
Binura Gunasekera happens right after that is the person that executed the program (Trojan Pony is an executable program) can get full control over your device and corrupt all sorts of data. The final kind of malicious software that I will talk about is called a virus. A virus is essentially the same thing as a worm aside from the fact that it does not spread onto other devices unless a file transfer is made. Viruses can hitch a ride on software you download, or it can sneak past your firewall. Quite obviously any one of these three things getting into your PC can really suck. Therefore you must take lots of precautious action to prevent the malicious software from intruding your PC. Here are three tips that can help you stay safe from worms, ponies and viruses. When opening any E-Mail attachment, ALWAYS scan it for viruses. This is a very common way for viruses to enter your computer. This is a very common way because, you never second guess your friends. If your friend sent you and e-mail saying Funny video watch this and it had an attachment, you wouldnt think your friend put in a virus in that attachment. This is obviously because your friend wouldnt do that anyways, its because their computer is infected and they gave you an infected file. So always scan your attachments. Always keep your patches up to date. This is crucial to keeping safe on your computer. Patches are pretty much self-explanatory. They patch any holes in security systems or fix any bugs and mistakes that are present in the programming. Therefore, if your patches are not up to date, viruses can easily get access into your PC files without any trouble. This is because your firewall is weak and outdated by the ever progressing viruses that are out there. To stay on top in this game you must keep everything updated including your patches and your security systems. The last tip to staying safe from viruses and such are to always keep your virus scanner up to date. In addition to keeping firewalls and patches up to date, keep your virus scanner is just as important. This is because you are relying on your virus scanner to aid your firewall in detaining these (if you will) criminals. If you are using a ghetto virus scanner to try find high-tech modern viruses, the viruses will just get right past. Thank you for reading this article.
