    His mom, however, was concerned about his newfound internet obsession. She decided to teach him about the dangers of the internet in an innovative way.

    Once, while Sammy was playing a game, he found himself in the middle of a giant maze. It was the Internet Maze, a world full of surprises and dangers.

    He met a friendly character, a glowing emoji. It taught him to create strong passwords and not to share them with anyone, not even with his best friend.

    In a darker corner of the maze, he encountered a menacing character. It represented internet trolls and cyberbullies. The emoji helped him escape, reminding him not to engage with such characters.

    Sammy stumbled upon a virtual marketplace. It was filled with enticing games and items. He was about to click on an ad when the emoji stopped him.

    The emoji reminded Sammy not to click on any flashy ads or download from untrusted sources as they might contain harmful viruses or could be a scam.

    They next arrived at a place with numerous portals. The emoji explained that these were different websites and warned Sammy to stay away from inappropriate ones.

    Sammy understood and promised to always ask for parental guidance when unsure about a website. The maze started to feel less intimidating.

    Finally, they reached the exit of the maze. Sammy felt a sense of achievement and gratitude towards the emoji for teaching him valuable lessons.
