Reaped Hey DiaryKids, the New York Times wants you to know, YOU'RE BARING YOUR SOUL TO THE WORLD:

"Now, as online diaries and so-called Weblogs become a phenomenon among

young people as well as adults, the issue of children's online safety has

become even more pronounced. Youngsters might think they are alone with

their thoughts and their computer, when in fact what is often a baring of

the soul is out there for all the world to see. "The Internet has moved on

into new territory," said Jean Armour Polly, author of "Net-mom's Internet

Kids and Family Yellow Pages," who has consulted widely on the topic of

children and Internet safety. "Strangers can comment on the diaries and

even e-mail kids advice and comfort."
