This is why my daughter has no email or "myspace" (or any other "space" for that matter) accounts. Right on Musenator. tA Tribal Disorder http://www.soundclick.com...dID=182431

Darlin, the thing that struck me about your kids is that when you introduced us to them they didn't get all shy and cower in a corner(kids do that, I know it's kind of normal) but looked at us straight on and said hi with a smile. That was awesome.

From the little-est bits I witnessed, Muse is an AWESOME mom! touched

Strict and firm, but with SO much love and very, very fair. Her children have very much respect for her, and lotsa love too.

You know I adore you!

MySpace is crazy. Everyone is OBSESSED with it. I'm a sophmore in high school (15 years old) and almost everyone I know has a page. I have one myself. I don't think it's any more dangerous than being on this site. Also, you don't have to add people that you don't know. It's just as easy to click "Reject" as it is "Accept." Not only has MySpace allowed me to chat with my friends (and some family), but I've found people who I'd lost touch with. I don't think it's appropriate when young girls (even younger than myself) have provocative pictures of themselves with hardly any clothes on. I have a friend who is in the eighth grade (13 years old) with all these pictures of herself in her bra and she's just your "average" 13 year old girl. Another thing I just don't understand are the pictures of people smoking weed. WHY would you do that!? Anyways, I think it's ok for teenagers to use MySpace and to have pictures of themselves up, but I don't necessarily think they should go around adding people they don't know personally. Also, you can set your page to private, so that only the people on your friends list can view your page. This might be helpful to concerned parents? Well, just my view on MySpace...I'm quite addicted. www.myspace.com/lrcorvette90

Thanks for sharing! I see you are 15 but your myspace looks like you are 17? I only urge that you consider your name and highschool and even what afterschool activities are contained in your profile. If I were a perp I could easily seek you out. Maybe you can remove your school title? I would imagine your friends would link you right to it either way...Which is the case with my daughter so I asked her to remove her photos all the way around. She was bothered some but her creativity took over and she asked if she could put her flip flops and hoodie in a shot. I was pleased with the creativity. She is clever and I adore that in her.

I am by far not attempting to be an over protective parent but a girl that well knows this world aint all shes cracked up to be..... As a woman who lives with the attempted rape of her sister on a school campus in the bathroom in the 4th grade..... I well know that it doesn't always happened to someone else.....I live with the damage it does to a family..... I am however balanced... I didn't ask her to delete it... just inforce some safe gaurds.

Thankyou for the private info... Once she does so and it works effectively.... I may change my stance some. It is clear you have your head on your shoulders.

I definitely understand why you'd be concerned. Yeah, for a while I didn't have my schools up there. The only reason I have them is because there are groups that they make based on your schools. It makes it easier to find classmates because you can do a search for your high school. I may take it down. Oh, and the age is wrong because when I first made my page, they didn't allow anyone under 16 (not that it stopped anyone), so I signed up as 16 when, in actuality, I was 14. My birthday was yesterday smile

so it changed it to 17. But, anyways, it's always good to see concerned parents. So many parents out there have no idea what their kids are doing and some of them don't even care. I think the flip flops/hoodie pictures are a very good idea if you're not comfortable with your daughter having pictures up of herself. smile

This love is a private affair...
