"I need help"
so here's the deal....... i really want a myspace! yes i know people...... "myspace is stupid. its so out of style!" but you know what i really want one. all my friends have it. Im not stupid! i know not to accept anyone as my friend unless i know them. I know not 2 put any personal information or pictures of myself! im a very good girl! and safe. i dont drink or anything. None of my friends drink and they're parents are more strict than mine! and i want one to talk to all my friends! espcially since vacation is coming up! And another thing is that i have a cousin that doesn't really talk to me because we never see each other. WHen we do see each other its small but online we talked alot on my friends myspace! and i liked it! he's my only cousin on that side of the family that i can tell eveything too especially right now ............... so i know im old enough and im smart! do you think its right for my parents to keep me away?????

Maybe give some free advice about: Parenting?
As long as you are careful, I see nothing wrong with MySpace. Maybe your parents would be more comfortable if you showed them what MySpace was really like. For example, help them to set up profiles...that way they feel included and are able to "check up" on you when they need. But, I would also suggest to you to set the comment option to...approve before posting. That way you still have some privacy. I hope that this helps.

I don't think it's right, but I also think that your parents are a bit misinformed. Everyone hears all the bad stories about Myspace. Well bad things happen to people all the time everywhere. Myspace is no different. Nobody talks about the millions of people that have never had a problem with Myspace. Your parents just need to realize that Myspace is a very safe, very fun website. I think that you should make a deal with your parents that allows them to monitor your site. They might go for this. Give them your password or something. I know its a complete invasion of privacy, but after awhile they will realize that you're just fine and they will stop checking it. If you can convince them to let you get started with it somehow even if the conditions totally suck, it'll work out for the best in the end. Good luck! :)
