Many parents cheer the ways their kids are learning and the speed at which they master technologies hardly known to them. Parents are fast sidelined as kids create their own space in a cyber world populated by real and virtual friends. Are we parents aware of the hidden rules that govern the Internet?

A bend in the river and a wooden pyre came into view. About 15 feet above the water, there was a nice round cubicle in the front and you climb directly on to it.
