I am another teenage girl willing to help others with their problems. I can try to answer any type of question, but I specialize in beauty and wellness, anything about theater or art, and some relationship questions. Even if your question isn't in one of these categories, go ahead and ask, and I will try to answer as best I can, or refer you to someone who may have a better answer.
Thank you all! ^_^

Hey,
OK. I'll cut straight to the chase. I used to have a MySpace about 2 years ago. My parents were totally fine with it, until there were a bunch of rapings in our state. At first, they only made me delete the pictures off there so that nobody knew what I looked like. Then, they made me get off the site all together. (My friends deleted theirs as well.) However, my brother (2 years older than me) has been allowed to stay on the site.
After two years, I've visited the site through my friend's account and have noticed that many of my friends have made new ones. This has left me to the decision on whether or not I should make one.
Keep in mind that my parents haven't really talked about it, and my brother still has one (no pictures of him). Since I'm in High School now, don't you think I should be allowed on this site?
I've asked my mom during the summer and she said "definitely not."
What would you do? What are your thoughts on this?

First off, I would not suggest making a MySpace page behind their back. If/when they find it, this will signal to them that you don't respect their judgement.
Since you said they haven't really talked about it, start a conversation about it! Ask them why they are concerned, and tell them how you feel about not being allowed to have a page. Brainstorm ways to be safe on the site (such as not giving out your personal information). But the most important thing is to discuss this with them, instead of going behind their back, as tempting as it seems.
Hope this helps! ^_^
