HMMMMMMMmmmmmmmm........well, a lot of things can be good.

Frankly, I'd MUCH rather my kids have Friends IRL and "Network" with them on the soccer field, in a chess club afer school, in church youth groups, or at the YMCA.

Why? Well, as adults, we know that everything that is written is not true. Kids can be very impressionable. I'm not necessarily talking about adults that might intrude upon their world through Myspace, but OTHER KIDS. Twisted adults were once pretty messed up kids.

I really want to know who my kids friends are. I want to meet them. I want to meet their parents. On Myspace none of this "screening" is possible, therefore it is banned in our house.
