Welcome to DivaTribe

 

A diva accepts herself as she is right now and strives to be even better.
She doesn't change who she is to fit someone else's idea of what she ought to be.
She reaches for her own ideal sense of whom she wants to be.
She's strong; she's courageous; she's creative.

I have always told my kids to not give out their Social Security Number to anyone - yes even on job apps.  And when it came time for DD to register to vote last year I never thought twice about how she would go about registering.  She had tripped to the DMV (lol- when they generated her license they marked "male" instead of female) so while she was getting that changed she registered there.

I didn’t realize Voter Registration would be another way for criminals to take advantage of our kids!!!   This is UNREAL...DD came up to me the other night with her laptop and shows me this email she received telling her it was "easy to register" just fill out the form and submit through the Internet. AND BOY DID IT LOOK OFFICIAL. 

Thank goodness my Pre-Law/Criminal Justice System Major smile is pretty savvy.

I did a couple of searches and this pops up:
