Every day you hear another statistic about victims of cyberbullying. Teens and tweens unknowingly invite strangers into their worlds. They provide the ammunition for these strangers to emotionally tear them down when online relationships fall apart, as they typically do with teens. Reality television is partly to blame. We see into the worlds of private, everyday citizens with nothing deemed too personal. With the popularity of social networking combined with the real aspects of reality television, teens and tweens believe it's acceptable to put their entire lives on display. They don't understand that to some, it's a game of voyeurism and that some choose their victims online. For years Alexis A. Moore played the game. She was the target of playground bullies and she didn't realize that she gave the bullies the ammunition they needed to target her. It was in the third grade when she first learned the saying, "They can't get your goat if they don't know where it's tied." As a young child, the meaning behind the words didn't sink in until years later after surviving domestic violence and online stalking that she learned how to tie her goat. Now she's teaching others the difference between being social and smart online and tying your goat where everyone has access to it and knows how to "get your goat." Today, Moore has transformed herself from victim to survivor as a nationally recognized advocate for domestic violence and cyberstalking and bullying victims. She is leading the way in bringing awareness to needed reform of the current system of domestic abuse treatment after founding and serving as President of Survivors in Action, a nationwide non-profit advocacy group that supports victims of crimes including domestic violence, identity theft, elder abuse, cyberstalking, stalking, child abuse, rape, and sexual assault. In her efforts to bring awareness, Moore has given presentations across the country and has been featured on ABC's Good Morning America. She has also contributed articles on domestic violence, stalking, and cyberstalking for outlets such as The New York Times, Glamour, and About.com. She keeps other survivors up-to-date with news and trends with her blog at http://www.AlexisAMoore.blogspot.com. Moore's story arc is certainly clear-from victim to victim's advocate-from scared, uninformed girl to woman in control of her life. Moore is an experienced high-tech investigator and shares her sage advice for online safety in a manner which parents and caregivers of teens and tweens can relate and then utilize in their protection efforts-starting with her playground experience and the lesson that she has never forgotten. A Parent's Guide to Cyberstalking and Cyberbullying: Protecting Your Children as Simple as 1 - 2- 3 is a parent's survival guide to engaging with children and grandchildren to help ensure that they find refuge and security from their family members and caregivers when and if a cyberstalker or cyberbully and your child cross paths. 100% of book proceeds go toward creating victim resources and helping victims.
