FRONTLINE examines a generation of children “Growing Up Online” coming January 22, 2008 http://www.pbs.org/frontline/kidsonline/ MySpace. YouTube. Facebook. Nearly every teen in America is on the Internet every day, socializing with friends and strangers alike, "trying on" identities, and building a virtual profile of themselves--one that many kids insist is a more honest depiction of who they really are than the person they portray at home or in school. In "Growing Up Online," FRONTLINE peers inside the world of this cyber-savvy generation through the eyes of teens and their parents, who often find themselves on opposite sides of a new digital divide. From cyber bullying to instant "Internet fame," to the specter of online sexual predators, FRONTLINE producer Rachel Dretzin investigates the risks, realities and misconceptions of teenage self-expression on the World Wide Web. Watch “Growing Up Online,” coming January 22, 2008 at 9 pm on PBS (check local listings) and online at http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/kidsonline/
