FamilyThreats.com Launches Risk Alert Service For Concerned Parents

FamilyThreats.com announces the launch on August 1, 2005 of their e-mail and RSS service, alerting parents to risks to the health, wealth and happiness of their family.

IJsselstein, The Netherlands (PRWEB) July 31, 2005 -- On August 1, 2005 FamilyThreats.com launches its risk alert service, alerting concerned parents to risks to the health, wealth and happiness of their family.

On the web site, FamilyThreats.com, daily articles are published in the categories Health, Safety, Happiness and Financial. On publication the articles are then forwarded to the subscribers of the alert service.

Web site owner Marjan Steneker: As a mother of three little kids I feel a tremendous responsibility towards their safety. I heard so many sad stories--for instance, just last week a little baby girl died in the back seat of a hot car--that I vowed to do everything in my power to prevent that. So I started to do research on the risks to their safety, and to the general well-being of my family."

Then I realized that other parents would have the same concerns.", Marjan Steneker continues, I wanted to share what I learn, and make others aware of these risks. Soon the idea for FamilyThreats.com was born; the Internet is just the perfect medium for this."

Marjan Steneker concludes: I hope my alert service will make many parents aware of the risks, and compel them to act upon it. I know that its impossible to know or lift all the risks, but if we can prevent just a single tragedy, itll be worth it!"

Parents who want to be made aware of the everyday risks to their family, can subscribe by providing an e-mail address, after which they receive weekly alert e-mails with information on new article additions. The privacy policy of FamilyThreats.com states that a provided e-mail address will be used for the e-mail alert service only.

As an alternative, a daily RSS feed is offered. RSS is a new, but increasingly popular method of publishing information over the Internet, without the need of providing an e-mail address or any other personal information. The subscriber can read the information whenever he or she wants, yet can end the subscription without the risk of (further) SPAM. However, to be able to read an RSS feed, a special program called an RSS Reader" is needed, or an information portal service such as My Yahoo!
