For its 2008 Safer Internet Eurobarometer survey the Commission targeted parents of children between 6 and 17 years old from all 27 EU Member States. The results showed that 75% of children (aged between 6 and 17 years) are already online. 60% of European parents are worried that their child might become a victim of online grooming and 54% that their children could be bullied online.
