Thanks for grounding me. So I could ask to attend a PTA meeting and make an attempt to get the parents fired up about web 2.0 and how to protect their kids online. I could call it something like From Consumers to Contributors, how the Read/Write web is changing our kids! Sounds like fun! Digital cameras would be cool for digital storytelling, though.

I'd ask if I could attend a PTO meeting as a guest speaker and do a training session on using the internet safely. I don't know how many of the basics I could squeeze into half an hour or so, but it might be enough to get the parents a little more tech savvy. And tech savvy parents are more likely to have tech savvy kids. I’d beg and plead for digital cameras, but that’s moreso because of the whole art teacher thing.
