[QUOTE="Rotsne, post: 217292, member: 6326"] Well, both my children have Arto - the Danish myspace. What I do is installing RealVNC on their computers now where the school work has demanded that they have a laptop on their own - both. Some high school are demanding that all students have one, so they have to be update in a modern world and we parents can go to the nearest "IT living room" run by the county and be educated. It cost a little for us parents but is free for retired people. My mother-in-law did start with internet aged 70 and she is "friend" on Arto with my daughter. It is never too late. We just have to acknowledge that we are living in another time and be on Myspace etc. as our offsprings are. RealVNC allows me to access their laptop in a watch mode without the children noticing me. They know that I have installed the software and they also know that I don't mind dating if I am told with who. One case did change the whole appoach towards Myspace alike places. When they appeared years back a public employed specialist went on National television warning parents about these community networks. He is in jail right now for abusing girls he found - on these networks. The parents became wake very fast and now the community networks are filled with parents. So my children know that they cannot trust people from the so-called security business - employed by the government or not. They can only trust us - their parents, so we have no secret. They have been taught about sex aged 10 as part of the mandatory education provided in our schools. Sex education is a part of the national curriculum here in Denmark. Since the introduction some 20 years ago the average sexual debute age for girls has been unchanged - it is a little over 17 years of age for girls and a year younger for boys. Some parents which have sexual active girls aged about 12 to 14 are adviced by the state to take their daughters to the doctor and get a P-stick shot into their arms. It prevents pregnancy for 3 years and cost about 200 dollars. When my daughter was forced into a drunken environment by our family coach she got one regardless of the fact that she is not sexual active. The only sideeffect seems to be a problem with acne. So don't be afraid with myspace. Dialogue is the answer and get her to tell you how to create an account and upload photos etc. If you play interested she will open up. Children like to be heard.
