I'm not a parent, but think they don't understand technology as well as their children do. It's true: adults admit it themselves.

The internet sounds so terrifying to them, and yes, some children with little common sense have been caught by pedophiles, but probably because they don't have as thorough of an understanding of it. A good internet user would know what information not to provide for strangers and how to protect their profiles and keep them private.
I say that if a child understands these things well enough, they should be able to use things like myspace.

Most of all, even though myspace is pretty ridiculous (I don't use it that much), i understand that most kids just use it to leave messages and talk to their friends. they're not exactly out to look for new people to meet pedophiles.

You can call myspace unsafe, but if you think about it, is anything really safe? You can very easily look up people's addresses and phone numbers on the internet yellowpages. And you yourself don't put that information out onto the internet.

Myspace, aside from the threat of internet predators, is a vast network of losers who are unable to make and keep relationships in real-life, with other people. Those who spend too much time on Myspace end up with bad grades, sloppy chores, and poor social skills. I don't even go on it when my friends beg me to.

Depends on her age. Pre teen or early teens. No way. I don't think a child in those age groups are mature enough to understand the consequences that can result in sharing personal information on the Internet (i.e. address, phone number, etc.,something My space lets you do.) I think My space is more for young adults and beyond. Besides, I think children are spending too much time on computers, video games, etc. They need to be outside throwing the football around, riding their bicycles or doing their homework.

FU*K NO

myspace is just another way to lure in stupid or impressionable kids and rape them. it is brainwashing children. they are obsessed with that stupid site and al some people do is sit on myspace and blog about their feelings. i mean from experiance i have seent he damage myspace can cause. i have a friend who was givin death threats over myspace. the guy who thretened him was expelled from out highschool and Dillon was all paranoid for like 3 weeks.

Also people sit on myspace and talk about their crimes and sh!t. a freind of mine with a stupid myspace account was on their friends and they wer posting messages about how much drugs they did and how wasted they got and about how they stole a bnch of crap from a 7/11.

im am against sheltering your kids from reality but myspace isnt the way for them to learn. get a proxy and block myspace as soon as you can.

another thing is kids allways say "i only talk to my friends from school!" but they after a month on myspace have a ton of friends who they dont know from school because they feel the need to have a ton of friends and make friends with people who they dont know. these people could easily be some perverted fu*ker. just like on AIM when i was younger.

My cousin is a great kid she is realy nice and all that but she grew up a lil sheltered and now she has a myspace and an 18 year old boyfriend (she is a highschool freshman) she thinks because she talks to people on myspace she doesnt know personaly (because she too said "only people i know" but then changed her mind) that she is cool. she recently lied to her mother about where she was gonna be and then she strait up lied to my mom (her aunt) to her face about where she was gonna be because she knew her mom wouldnt let her go over to her boyfriends house. all this lieing and cr@p started not long after she discovered myspace.

please for the sake of the preservation of some intelligance to remain in the human race do not let your child on that site.

i see it every year kids are getting dumber and dumber as a whole. these kids who drop out freshman year or start goin to special alternitave schools in middle school because they are too lazy and would rather blog and do drgus all day are going to run the country in about 15-20 years. humans are only in charge of the animal kingdom because we think higher and can addapt other whise cheetahs would have taken over because they can run fast and have claws. if we allow our kids to become soo stupid and let them on myspace and rot their brains as such we will be a dead race because no one will have the capacity to rule as human and we will revert ot being less than the big cats. would you like to be rules by a snow lepord emperor? didnt think so.

If they insist.

But with all the restrictions that they allow. Like only a known friend can see it.

Wouldn't answer all the questions truthfully either.

The school district of high standing for which I work for prohibits www.myspace.com for student use at school. There is your answer.
