Kids Use Coding Skills to Hack Online Games
Kids as young as 11 are using coding skills to hack accounts on social media and gaming sites, according to one report. Antivirus firm AVG says children are writing malware to steal data and virtual currency from friends.
However, the hacks are still in their infancy, as researchers found errors that trace back to the original source. One author included his exact email address, password and additional information, revealing an 11-year-old boy in Canada. Most programming languages researchers found in the study were elementary, such as C# and Visual Basic. Check out the video, above, for more.

As today's connected generations tinker with computers and smartphones at earlier ages, their familiarity with coding starts young. Worldwide initiatives are developing to teach kids to program, including CoderDojo and Codecademy. More children are learning to create their own apps, learning HTML and Javascript like a second language.
Kids need to be taught to code responsibly and educational guidelines should be implemented,says Yuval Ben-Itzhak, chief technology officer at AVG.
"You teach your children that you can't take a toy without paying - so I think this type of a message needs to get to the kids when they're writing software too," Ben-Itzhak tells BBC.
What do you think of teaching children to code? How can teachers and parents monitor their kids? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.

小黑客侵入在线游戏
据一篇文章报道，一群只有11岁大的孩子，运用编程技术，入侵了一些社交媒体以及在线游戏网站。反病毒公司AVG称，孩子们正在编写一些恶意软件，从而在他们的朋友那里偷取数据和虚拟货币。
尽管如此，这些小黑客还是只处于他们技术的初期阶段，研究人员通过他们放下的错误追溯到了病毒的源头。一个精确的邮箱，密码还有一些其他的信息，暴露了一个在加拿大的十一岁的小男孩。研究人员发现，这些小黑客使用的编程语言多数都是简单基础的，比如C#，Visual Basic。
如今，孩子们使用电脑和智能手机的年龄越来越小，这使得他们能够很早的接触到编程。世界范围内也越来越重视去教孩子们编程，如一些学习编程的网站：CoderDojo和Codecademy。越来越多的孩子正在创造他们自己的应用程序，而HTML和Javascript似乎变成了他们的第二语言。
AVG（反病毒公司）的CTO（首席技术官）说，我们需要教育指导孩子在编程的时候更责任感。
“你会告诉你的孩子不能随便拿走商店里的玩具，同样的，我认为你应该在他们编写软件的时候也要这样提醒他们。” Ben-Itzhak 对BBC说。
你将如何教孩子去编程？老师家长又该如何管教他们的孩子呢？请在回复中告诉我你的想法。
