but when i have a 13 year old i'll have every password to every site. there will be no computers in bedrooms. only common areas.
if your kid is conversing with someone online, you have no idea who they could be. how can you trust a 13 year old with this technology? we dont need gov't regulation on this, but some parental common sense would be nice.
they really began to care who their daughter was talking to AFTER she took her own life. that's a little too late.
I spent hours looking all over the internet on this story. The parents say they DID watch her myspace & although I would never allow my minor child to have any such account, I can't understand why you said the dead girl's parents sucked? Why would you say that? You don't know what their home life was . Thats why I asked you to back up that mean comment. If you know that these parents were negligent etc how do you know? Are you assuming they were negligent? If so say that! Or back it up with proof & links!
I've raised teens who are now adults & let me tell you its darn hard to watch every single thing they do. They will try to pull things over on you & you better be really sharp. Computers can be a great thing but when teens get on myspace etc it can become a nightmare. I wouldn't allow aol chats for my teens and I sure don't plan on letting my 8 yr old daughter on the computer without sitting next to her.
As for Lori Drew, she is an evil sick woman & IMHO opinion she is no better then the perverts who lie & stalk children on the internet. I hope she rots in he11. I don't care if I sound mean either. I hope her everyday is a day of he11. Sad to say but people like her have no feelings or remorse otherwise they wouldn't play childish games with children. She is supposed to be an adult & she knew that Megan had problems. So if anyone sucks its Lori Drew & her nasty daughter.
Please read post #95 & read the link. It will show you more then you have assumed.
