[QUOTE="donna723, post: 56704, member: 1883"] This stuff is getting really serious! A friend of mine who is in the middle of a divorce just lost custody of her daughter because of the girls' "myspace" page! She's TWELVE! Posted a picture that makes her look much older, said she was 14, gave lots of personal info including her REAL name! The mom had it deleted - the girl opened another account from a friends house and reposted it all. Mom didn't know. Daddy went to court, blamed it on the mom, mom lost custody! The judge <u>ordered</u> that this kid NOT have a "myspace" page again! Well, guess what, folks! It's still there! Apparently none of them, including the judge, even bothered to check to make sure it was removed! It's set on "private" but you don't even need to get in to it! The page that comes up shows a picture that makes her looks much older, gives her [i]full real name[/i], and the name of the tiny little town they live in and the state! And now it says she's [i]15[/i]! So anyone, including child molesting predators, can track this kid right down! They have an unusual last name so [i]anyone[/i] can get her address and phone number right out of the phone book, even find out where she goes to school because there's only one middle school in their little town! I'm sort of out of touch with the schools now, but do they address the dangers of internet postings with the kids? If they don't, they sure should! [/QUOTE]
