"okay, so you own up to being a questioner of authority and that explains your attitude : ) ya heathen! but i disagree and think that this policy is a sound one and the answer for those few like yourself who aren't supportive of the rules, are better served somewhere where they don't have them."
I've been known to question authority, I'll admit :) Based on my observations about their intelligence, morals, track record and other factors, I believe that is warranted. I never understood what makes some people inherently better than me. They seem to think so, and it amuses me at times.
One thing that bothers me is the attitude that if you don't fit in 100%, you have no place. No thought, no opinion, no consideration. My Dad was a lifelong supporter of the church, and the closest I've ever been to encountering a Saint. But he was tolerant and always considered other viewpoints. I may be somewhat liberal, even radical at times, but I learned it from him.
I'm sure we can debate this until the cows come home, and beyond. I still think it would have been nice if the school administration gave the parents some credit and simply, and strongly, suggested that they not allow their children to have a MySpace account. Give the parents a "heads up", make the problem known and help fix it.
knowing some of my fellow parents at these schools, they are at least half the problem. the school bends over backwards to discourage underage drinking at dances, proms etc. Parents are the ones presiding over the parties where alcohol is served.
