Rhertz, you are absolutely correct with your post. In our home we have even banned the kids from being on MySpace. Now I can not control what they do at school on a computer or elsewhere but while they are in the house it is off limits. It has certainly made a big difference in their attitudes alone. One of the things that appalls me the most about the teens on MySpace is their language. Some of it seems to be more foul than anything I would expect to hear in a prison. They also seem to have no fear of putting all of their information on their page with no thoughts given to who may be seeing it.

It is indeed surprising that kids put everything on their My Space page for anyone to see! Their parents, their teachers, their employers can check in and see what these kids are really about! My kids do have them but so far I haven't been too shocked by their posts and pictures. I have to remember when I was their age I was doing similar things but then again not telling and showing the whole world about it. Hmmmm....guess it's time to go do a little snooping, er, I mean checking up on them!:)

Yes well what can I say...there are to many horror stories out there to not warrant providing some measure of safety for your children.
I just hope you understand that MySpace isn't the bad apple spoiling the bunch....It's closer to the truth to say that MySpace is a product of it's environment and that your children have computer skills far exceeding your own. My guess is if they are teens you have done little more than inconvenience them. |
Oh I am quite sure my children are far more adept with computer skills than I many times. I at least have not put the gun in their hand, the pills in their mouth, etc. I have made it difficult for them. Also I can get on and check their last log in date!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They don't know that Mom knows how to find their MySpace page and info quite as well as I do. I love to play stupid for them and let them fall into the trap!

I wonder if Mom wasn't so busy using underhanded tactics to spy on her kids if they would be a little less sneaky and more open with her?

BTW, creating alternate personalities for the sole purpose of spying on your children falls smack dab in the middle of going overboard, in my opinion, regardless of how you justify it to yourself. |

Of course, and not having children means I lack the intelligence to form opinions. Just like people should shoot heroin in their veins before having opinions about illegal drugs and try butt sex a time or two before having opinions about sodomy and/or homosexual relationships too, huh?:nono: :nono: Yeah, thank god we don't all live on your planet. |
