Wake County libraries will host a series of programs for parents who want to learn more about internet safety for children.

Karen Muhammad, crime prevention specialist for the Wake County Sheriff's Office, will lead the programs and talk about how to deal with inappropriate content and behavior on the Internet. Go Ask Mom readers who have been to our events at North Hills might know Muhammad, who offers free child IDs at our events.

Representatives from New York Life Child ID program will be on hand after each program to issue free child photo IDs (as long as a parent is present).
