You know 500 people, too. Melissa Etheridge is my friend! So are several other artists!

Even some restaurants/bars want to be your friend!

DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED......
PGR--does she have a trial date set? That would be an interesting one to watch. I don't know how that woman sleeps at night!!

Did you watch the Neil Entwistle (?) trial recently--the one that killed his wife and baby? sick sick sick

Agreed, Sapphire. We should all pay attention to what our kids do online. Privacy or not, we have to protect the little ones. (For the record, I watch way too much Law & Order: SVU, so I'm even more paranoid these days.) Install keystroke loggers, web filters, restrict computer use to certain times of the day, move the computer into a public family space (living room, for example), keep computers out of the kids' rooms...could go on for days.

Yeah, my big worry now is his Xbox live--I keep an ear open since they talk a lot of smack on there.......and I just can't get into playing video games with him--I get motion sickness from them. You should see me at the Pirates of the Caribbean movies. You would ROFL--they make me hurl.

My wife has the same experience during some of my game playing, especially the driving ones. I've never tried Xbox Live, but I have heard that a lot of the players use some very harsh language...

Here's a better question...why would an adult just drop off a 12 yr old willie nilly at a store? Wouldn't you want to see the 12 yr old go with the other friend or their family or see where they were going? I don't think I'd trust enough to just drop off a kid and say "see ya later!" I don't know, that's my opinion though. I'm sure I'm going to be one of those obsessive over protective parents!

Nothing obsessive or over-protective about it, mojokitty. I would have waited around, myself. Or, better yet, talked with the parent of the girl she was meeting to make sure everything was legit. A 12-year old girl has no business being dropped off at a public place without adult supervision of some kind. That goes for malls, movie theaters, etc.

Of course, I'm a young dad with two little girls at home, so my opinion is a bit biased. (My girls aren't dating until they're 30.)

Yep, my hubby is into Xbox live, mostly because his friends are all over the country, being military. He said he gets these little kids trying to play with his friends and him. They talk nasty on there and he says things like "shouldn't you be in bed? or shouldn't you be in school?". haha He says, they are on there all times of day!

You really have to be obsessive about it these days. And *newsflash* KIDS LIE!! They are just screamin' to be protected, that's all.

There is going to be a lot of finger-pointing after this one, I'm sure. Bottom line, if someone harmed her, it's HIS fault, but how she got there is a different issue altogether.
