I’m afraid to say that sometimes the parents help girls create accounts and even help their friends. I know girls who spend the whole day alone at home while parents work.

My daughter knows there are no such things as secrets on the computer. That includes me as well. All our computers are open. Mine is in my office because everyone complains about the shooting from Call of Duty but I usually keep the door open.

I know girls who spend the whole day alone at home while parents work. Sad. Although the same thing happened to me occasionally (not at 13, though, I was too busy on vacations&summers working on my uncle's farm). What's the point to having kids if no time is spent with them?

All our computers are open. Best way to do it. Our PC is in the living room, and generally, I work on my laptop in the TV room. Although - I'll sometimes take it into another room if I need to concentrate (my tech work is a little concentration-intensive, occasionally. not much room for mistakes....).

There was a previous poster (#254, right above) that more-or-less proved my point, vis-a-vis moral fanaticism. As someone who's not 100% in favor of the methods used in this show, I have a "secret agenda"...or a "not-so-secret agenda". Whatever that is.

On a totally unrelated note, what do you think of Call of Duty? Usually, I wind up getting a game, playing with it for a day or two, then not looking at it ever again - so I don't invest in them very often. Call of Duty, though, piqued my interest.
