Posting Videos or Photos Online
With video sharing sites like YouTube and others, people are able to share videos of themselves, their families and their friends online.  Social networking and personal websites also allow users to post videos and photos or use a webcam for a live chat.  While it is an incredible and entertaining form of communication online, there are risks attached to it.  Once a video or photo is made public online, it can be viewed, downloaded and used by just about anyone.  Employers and college admissions officers have been known to check out social networking sites and videos online of their applicants. 

Strategies
Warn your children about posting identifying or sexually provocative photos of themselves or their friends.  Once they post it online, they will have no control over who uses the images or what is done with them.

Warn your children that an embarrassing video they post online could hurt their chances at a future job or college acceptance.  Once it is in the public domain, anyone can view it.

Encourage your children to talk to you if someone has made them feel uncomfortable or exposed them to inappropriate material during an online chat.  Only allow them to video chat online with adult supervision.
