Identity Theft and Social Media

In today's technology-driven society, I can not help but wonder why a young child's identity is already stolen!!!  Well, social media is one of the reasons why.  We often forget that putting information about our children in social media opens the opportunity for hackers to hack and steal our children's identity.  Indeed we love our children and we wanted the world to know how successful and how great they are but we often forget that they are still very vulnerable to identity theft.  As a matter of fact they are the easy target simply because they do not care about their credit score up until they are probably applying for their first part time work or college!  Let's be mindful and be the advocate for our children.
