Web, Internet, social networks are now words that have entered into a common dictionary shared by all, even if many times we do not know neither the rules nor the risks.

It is because the network hides inside of its ease of use quite a few risks that often can be fatal to social development, especially in younger people who do not have the skills and means to report abuse. An interesting initiative license plate Telecom Italy allows light through a process of educating and engaging their ages teen to raise their youngsters on these issues. Just because teenagers are the most at risk in the web because they are both the biggest users but also those less familiar with the rules and precautions to safeguard their security and their own person in general. Through this process are presented through an engaging narrative that is talked about in first person using adolescents in particular social networks, the most frequent risks inherent in surfing the Internet and provide their data to make them available to everyone with the means suitable for reporting abuse.

The first is to tell a girl who talks about how the shots have become private or as a result has been dogged by a stalker, before they can harm away from parents who were monitoring the internet activities of her daughter. The same girl tells how it was conned by the Incas on the network and how the purchases have been stolen money from the credit card given to her by her parents. The word then goes to his friend that talks about how her friend is in love with another on the network, most often one of the dangers online, without ever seeing the person and how it changed his life through the intervention of friends real and have been able to help you understand your condition. The girl had unfortunately left too involved with the virtual life abandoning the real one factor that had led to a distorted perception of reality and things that are truly important in life. For the last word goes to another guy who has unfortunately been the victim of cyber bullying from classmates but luckily was able to stop them and to overcome the episodes with the help of teachers aware of and sensitive to issues that these attitudes may create the harmonious development of the person and its implementation both within the school context of what is inside of life in general.

Experience of course fictional, but who have a real following in reality. It is no coincidence that the project of Telecom Italy has three distinct routes, with particular narrative techniques and empathic, to be aware of all the social game that is in children, adolescents and educators (both teachers and parents). Important issues that are sometimes overlooked for lack of knowledge of issues and legislation in question so do not give due weight to events and consequences that a single picture posted on Facebook can have an impact in general and the narrative of his life to ' inside a social network or blog.
