Internet Safety

[Pete_G]

I would say myspace is unstoppable at this point and it's far from limited to younger teens. TV shows, bands, businesses, and people of all ages put pages up on there now. Articles villianizing it just aren't recognizing how big it already is and how many people enjoy it for what it is really for.

I think the only question now is how to stop kids from posting personal info on there. Parental awareness and therefore parental guidance (if the kid is of appropriate age to have a myspace profile) is probably the key although as the article states, even young kids are often light years ahead of their parents when it comes to being Internet saavy.

you also have to tell kids to have an internet identity that is different from their real one.....so they can furnish information that could never lead anyone to them.. it's more than just a log in name.
