Caution:The Internet has been described as "a river that is a million miles wide and a quarter of an inch deep." Consumers should exercise caution in accepting information from websites whose sources are unknown and whose authority in a field cannot be determined. This is especially important for mental health sites. For more information on this topic, see the publication dotCOMSENSE from the American Psychological Association, as well as the warning from the U.S. Federal Trade Commission. For information on the effects of media on children, visit the Center for Media Education.
