“Lane has a gift: the ability to explain complex matters so non-lawyers can comprehend the important nuances. Cybertraps for the Young should be standard issue for parents of all ages.” —Mike Brunker, projects editor, msnbc.com
“Lane has kept apace with youths’ interest in the next new thing and is clearly attuned to how our imagined sense of privacy is an illusion, and even more so for our children.” —Sharon Lamb, chair and professor of mental health, University of Massachusetts
“Evolutions in technology have reshaped the landscape of parenting and educating in the 21st century. Parents must take affirmative steps to adequately provide children with support and monitoring necessary to support healthy, responsible use of these technologies.” —Michael Touchette, digital forensics examiner, Vermont Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force
"Lane provides an invaluable guide for parents concerned about a set of techno-pitfalls unprecedented in human history. That he does so with wit, candor, and grace is fortunate for all who must confront the twenty-first century dangers waiting to ensnare unmoored children." —Elizabeth Breau, ForeWord magazine
"Frederick S. Lane's Cybertraps for the Young is a wake-up call to parents to recognize the potentially horrifying consequences of their children's use of the latest electronic gizmos. In a well-organized format, the author demonstrates how children are using computers and mobile phones to bully and harass; to take nude photos of themselves and others, and then send those photos to hundreds; to cheat in school; to steal intellectual property; to purchase tobacco, alcohol and drugs; to commit a variety of crimes — often unknowingly — from identity theft to hacking to invasion of privacy, to libel, defamation, plagiarism and copyright infringement." —Arthur Vanderbilt II, New Jersey Star-Ledger
