Okay, this girl requested to be my friend on myspace, and I sort of know her as a friend, so I just added her back. Well, apparently she's new to the whole thing and gets freaked out by those weird Bulletins if anyone knows what I mean. (If you have a myspace, I'm talking about the bulletins people post saying you'll die if you dont repsost this and stuff) Well, someone on her friends list posted one of those..and she took it very seriously. She told her parents, and they have called the police. Then the police called everyone on her buddies to notify them not to go on myspace because apparently in the chain letter it said stuff that was personal about everyone on her buddies, and the last time this happened someone actually did get killed. Now, this girl happens to only have 10 ppl on her friends, so it was easy to contact everyone seeing how she only added people in her niehgborhood, ha. But I am one of the people on her buddies, and we've already been called.
Here's the thing, my mom answered the phone when the police called, and she doesn't really care about the whole thing, because this girl is known to be over dramatic. BUT, if my mom tells my dad he will FREAK. Not only because my picture is on the internet, but because there's someonE I don't know who knows all my personal information. WHAT am I supposed to do? If my dad finds out he will ban me from the computer for ages, and I'm going to be needing it a lot lately, so PLEASE any advice would help mE!

For like two weeks so umm I think if you think ure parents are gonna get really mad right now delete everything personal on your page and get rid of the pictures and where it says where you live... delete the ppl you dont really know, because usualy they wont even realize that there your friend or not especially if they have alot of friends they wont realize your gone...or you can shut down the whole sight and start all over later... for me i deleted my whole entire site and believe it or not im happy because i spent so much time checking if I had messages or new comments and now i just spend less time on the comp...
anyways hope I helped Live Strong! [ livestrong's advice column | Ask livestrong A Question ]
