Grooming is a word used to describe how people who want to sexually harm children and young people get close to them, and often their families, and gain their trust. Grooming in the real world can take place in all kinds of places – in the home or local neighbourhood, the child's school, youth and sports clubs or the church. Online grooming may occur by people forming relationships with children and pretending to be their friend. They do this by finding out information about their potential victim and trying to establish the likelihood of the child telling. They try to find out as much as they can about the child's family and social networks and, if they think it is "safe enough", will then try to isolate their victim and may use flattery and promises of gifts, or threats and intimidation in order to achieve some control. 2, record 3, English, - grooming

The heart of the cyberrevolution remains, of course, the personal computer. Cheaper, faster, more versatile and easier-to-use PCs are infiltrating the social fabric. Software like Mosaic and Netscape has made navigating the Internet a lot less daunting for average citizens.... The modern, well-wired home already offers its occupants a head-spinning array of computer-borne activities. Children use CD-ROMs to play games and hear music. Teenagers flock to online services not only to "chat", but also to reach primary school work sources... Adults have access to instant stock-market quotes, to online versions of magazines and to "clubs" where people gather to discuss astronomy, genealogy or bicycling. 1, record 11, English, - cyber%20revolution
