Poor kids can’t ever have anything for their own!

Although, the time I least would have needed to connect online was when I was a kid.

But, how trustworthy is the story—didn’t Murdoch buy the site?  He provided the data, right?  Wouldn’t be caught dead playing in his sandbox!

In light of all the problems with MySpace and children’s accessiblity to it I think that it should be kept “off limits” to those under 18.  Unless parents can properly supervise their children’s use of home computers and the MySpace website, Myspace will be used for bullying, defamation of other peoples character, slandering, and sex shopping. It has become a cesspool for lack of civility and respect.  These things should be learned at home and unfortunately for many children they’re no acquiring these skills so they check into MySpace and treat other people with bad manners and lack of respect.  MySpace is a magnet for adult sexual predators and in light of recent events concerning Mark Foley it is also a trolling ground for pedophiles.  Needless to say unsupervised children with low self esteem and weak character development are ideal game.  Raise the age to 18!
