Yet another reason to keep your kids off myspace

Thanks! But it's only because I know the shit I was getting into at 15...

 

Your first post said you have "quite a few friends (girls) that are under 16." Then you said that you only have one girl on your list and she turns 16 tomorrow. Hmmm, okay.

 

So fucking sue me if I said that. It's a fucking typo. Get over it.

 

So it's okay if you do it, just not your friends. Is that what you are saying?

 

I think Kentucky is using "friends" in the sense of invited people that message you and post on your MySpace site.

Not like he and the 15-year-old go out for ice cream and read Tiger Beat after school.

 

A typo? The entire phrase?

 

As much as I hate to agree, trounced does make a couple good points here.

 

Out of the seven girls on my friends list that are 16 or so, only ONE of them did I add myself. And that was my sister. The others found me on MySpace and messaged me, not the other way around.

Yes. It's about damn time someone sees that.

 

I'm just too old to understand MySpace. Or e-communities.

 

Exactly. You provide an example. You don't keep your kids from the Internet. You inform them about what's out there. The Internet has tons of useful stuff. Don't throw out the baby with the bathwater. And as 21 said, no one is perfect. All kids do screwed-up stuff. You just have to hope you've taught them well enough to not do something fatally stupid.

 

So you don't understand the SportsJournalists.com community?

 

I didn't know such a thing was possible.
