Blog #10 .

In the Chat transripct the emotions shift from in Excerpt 1 to Excerpt 2. In the beginning of Excerpt 1 she explains how she loved the interenet when she first discovered for herself. She was able to basically do whatever because her parents knew nothing of the internet or WebTV. She knew that she was doing was dangerous. She ran into an encounter like that when a pedophile called her, after she gave him her number after talking to her online in a Chat Room. After that she was definitely more cautious with what she did and with her younger siblings as well. She didn't want them to experience the same as she did.

A question I would want to have answered is even though her parents weren't familiar with the internet, Why did they give her free reign to do whatever? Because they didn't know much of it they still should have monitored her.

Then again in Excerpt 2 she seems to be more in a playful/funny mood. She sort of down plays the situation that happened earlier. She and her friend go right back into the Chat Rooms talking to strangers. They experienced another situation when someone they were talking to turned out to be the Pastor's son.

Question: Why didn't she learn from her mistakes from before? The same thing could have happened again contrary to whether or not she thought it could.
