i'm in deep trouble with my myspace.
i submitted this question once already but it like didn't go through so i fixed it up a bit..
alright well..
one of my friends has very strict parents. so they were looking at her search history and found her myspace. they also found mine.
i'm not aloud to have a myspace. my parents made it very clear that if i had one, i'd be in deep trouble. i wouldnt be allowed on the computer for a long time and when i am allowed to my parents would watch my every move. so on AIM, i cant talk to anyone about private stuff.
i deleted my account already but i dont know what to do. my friends dad said hes going to tell my parents. her dad is going to say he saw it a few days ago so there's no hiding that i actually did have one.
i really don't know what to do. i don't want to get in trouble and loose my computer rights. last resort would be to come clean but i don't want to have to do that. i need to get out of this situation. i really need help, and FAST!! please, does anyone have any advice?
thank you sooooooooooooooo much. you dont know how incredibly bad i need advice.

Want to answer more questions in the Relationships category?
Maybe give some free advice about: Families?
Why don't you just listen to your parents? If you did that, you wouldn't get in trouble. Anyways, Myspace isn't THAT cool and not something worth getting in trouble in, so why make one in the first place. I say you just take the fall, you're going to have to learn one day to take responsibility on your actions.

Whats up their butts? Perverts cannot get to you through Myspace especially if your profile is set to private...
Some parents will never learn that all they manage to do, is increase the gap. Well 2 bad for them, coz I child WILL get myspace if it wants. It will go to netcafe if it has to.
Finally Parents are gonna have to lock the child in the closet and...who becomes dangerous then?
The internet pervert or the OVER protective narrow minded parent?
Solutions
Download a Firefox or another Internet Browser, hide it really well on some really scarry-keep away files such as (tcp_settings, psp stationary, Protocol21 and use your imagination) and make sure to clear its history every now and then.

ok the ebst thing to do is just be like yeah i "had" one but it was emty and i didnt do anythin gon it, tell them you just had one so that you can look at other peoples. and that should work or at least help.

Hey. Well, it might comfort your parents to know that you can make it private, so that only a few people, whom you personally approve, can view your myspace page. Also, tell them that you can have fake information. For example, my myspace says I'm 100 years old and I live in Bermuda. I'm thirteen, and I don't live in Bermuda, lol. So, if you do decide to come clean, which I reccomend doing before you get 'ratted out', tell your parents that you want one, and that you'll make it very safe. Also, explain to them that you aren't stupid, you aren't just going to go talking to like 50 year old petifiles, lol.
Hope I helped! ♥ Kathleen.

Hey there! While I am not exactly sure how I would handle this situation, you could tell your parents that you set it up BEFORE they asked you not to have one and that you just never went to it after they asked you not to. That might help.
However, I am not sure what you have told your friend's father. If he knows you were on it recently then you can't do as I suggested for fear of him calling you out on that lie as well.
This is a tough one hun. Best of luck. It will all be ok.
You may even just want to explain to your parents why you want a myspace and convice them that you are mature enough to have one.
Good luck sweetie!
Lemme know if you need anything else....

Okay. Your parents forbid you to do something due to safety concerns. As you say, they made it very clear. You know the consequences going into this. You did it anyway and now you have been caught?
Suck it up, take it like a man or woman, and DON'T call the other kid's parents liars if you don't want to be banned from your friend's house. You knew the risks and it's time to pay the consequences. Whether or not Myspace is actually as dangerous as your parents think is beside the point. If you wanted to argue that it was safe, the time to do that was before you made a page. You deliberately defied your parents and you should face the consequences not because you made a myspace page, but because you intentionally went behind their backs and did something they specifically forbade. If I were your parent, I'd follow through with the promised punishment and tell you not to even speak with me about myspace again for at least 6 mo to a year. You did the crime, now you gotta do the time.

Just tell them you had a myspace. It's not a big deal, they'll get over it faster and trust you more if you're honest with them. And you don't NEED a myspace to survive, jeez.
]
i personally would say that i had one but i didnt look at it or have any contrl over it cause my friend made it for me. it was on so in so's history because they wanted to see it or they made it up. also i would say that you deleted it the other day because you knew you werent allowed to have one and that there were no pictures cause they didnt hvae any of you and that there was no information about you on it. and you could tell them it was private. unfortunitly the best way is not to lie but if you have to i would go with that. hope i helped.
]
Ahh the same thing happened to me !
I'm not allowed to have a myspace either, but all of my friend's have one, so i felt like i needed to have one as well. I don't have one anymore becuase I KNOW my parents will find out.
If you're parents do find out about it, just come clean and tell them that you have a myspace. JUST DON'T LIE TO THEM. they'll be even more mad if you lie.
]
unfortuantly you deleted it...
you should of kept it to show your parents you have no revealing photos. you dont talk to strangers. and you page is private.
i wasnt aloud to have one untill i showed my parents thats. now they ask me questions to make sure i still dont do that..and they ask me to see my myspace everyonce in a while.
now all you can do it not lie and say that is the best way to keep in touch and you never did anything bad.
ps.you have a myspace addiction. =[ like every other myspace user lol. um talk to you parents about letting you have one and even encourage them to make one and add you as a friend to make sure you aren't doing ne thing bad
]
well the best thing to do is dont lie be the first to tell because if anything an adult hates when another adult tells them there childs bissness first then only fate can guide you through that
]
wow that really sucks. how old are you? well im 13 and alot of kids i know are in the same situation. uh.. alot of other people are telling you to come clean. i guess you'll have to eventually do that. trust me it would be better for you to tell your parents than for your friend's dad to. but i'll say these things to help you not feel so bad about yourself. first of all, your friend's dad should mind his own business.. he doesnt have to tell every bodies parents that other kids are using myspace when they arent supposed to. also, its not that bad to do it.. i mean alot of people like myspace. you have to be a complete airhead to go tell some guy you dont know that your going to meet them. my best advice is to make your thing private, and ONLY accept people to your friends list if you know them. yes dont add bands too.. because molesters could make them and then they track where you are. i mean you may not say where you live or anything, or your name, but your friends do in their comments. and one friend saying "hey wanna meet up on saturday at ____ mall" and since the molester already has your picture, he'll go there and kill you. its actually happened before and a molester got the girl and killed her. he got in jail, duh but your still dead after that. thats why alot of parents are concerned. bottom line, dont add anyone to your list that you dont know, and dont put out personal info. tell your friends not to put in comments not too personal info either, like the location you live in, and dont write your age either. say that your like 99 years old, and live in like Togo. or take down your picture and put a cute myspace icon you like. so.. yeah. i think alot of parents overreact with the myspace thing. its not terribly bad.. i mean in my opinion i think its okay to go on myspace from when your in... like 6th grade and up. some kids start in 5th grade.. but it really depends on your maturity and how smart you are not to like leak personal things and talk to strangers. i know how you feel.. well my parents feel the same about myspace, but i deleted mine cause it got way too addicting!! (luckily i didnt get caught on it before, but i also didnt put a picture of myself in my profile, and my profile was private.) spend time doing other things.. talk to your friends on AIM (its ok to talk to people you dont know on AIM btw, just dont leak personal info, like your full name, where you live, stuff like that.) and call them on your home phone or cell if you have one. thats pretty much all i can say... good luck! :)
oh, and try searching up how to like protect yourself on the internet through google. and then print out all this stuff and tell your parents that you understand what its saying, and try to explain that myspace isnt really that bad if its used the right way. maybe that will soften them up.. a little. because its really harsh and stupid for parents to look over your shoulder all the time... they get a little paranoid because they think you may not know what to do in a certain situation and then like do something that could end up with you getting abused, or worse. the internet can be a bad thing too.. so dont take it lightly. you may not see the big deal, but your parents do, a whole lot. well it depends on the parent.. but with your parents, like.. just try to make them not get so overwhelmed about it... ha.
i asked this already, but how old are you? OH and you and your friend should delete the history about myspace, after using it. so your parents wont ever find it, if you still wanna use it. =] delete it off your computer too before your parents go searching through it too, and delete your account, and make a new one. tell some of your friends with parents like yours and your friends who search history to clear theirs too, so nobody will get caught.
<3 dee.

Yo.
You really do have to come clean with your folks. If they found out that you lied from someone else, then i would think they would be really mad. If you could just explain to ypur parents, well maybe they would go a little easier then you think. I would think that coming clean would be your best bet. Try to put yourself in your mom/dad's shoes. What would you do if you found out your child had a MySpace, but not from your child, but someone else. What would you do? Would you prefer them to come clean, or just "let this one slide"? I think coming clean would still keep your parents angry, but i also think that it would actually make them a little bit happy, knowing that you could come clean about a situation like this. Come clean. I think that you may still be in trouble, but i do think that your parents would respect you fro being honest.
Hope I helped!

my parents found out i had one a couple years ago.. my brother ratted me out when my parents questioned us after going to some "are your kids safe online" seminar or something. anyway, i made up a fake one so they saw i deleted it. i know, it was a lie but still. anyway if you absolutely need to make a new one... next time make your default an icon, don't put up a name and make it private and hide your friends so now one can rat anyone out.
you could come clean and save yourself some trouble or deny it and possibly get some more. i cant tell you what to do but i'll give you your options.. <3
]
You HAVE to come clean with your parents!! no if ands or buts about it .... what i woudl do is confess everythgin in a letter and even say how you wish to keep a myspace and say something like "you can check it ever day" i woudl give this note to your mom or dad right when you are about to leave so even if that have the inittial blow up you wont be there.. hopefully when you come back your parents ill have talked about it enough to be calm and maybe you guys cause have a long discussiuon about it... but you also ned to be prepare for them not to let u ahve a myspace and for you computer privilges to be taken away... it has to be hard to lie to your parents and i garentee theyu are only being strict because they want you to be saft.. but if you can prove to them that you can act matuarlly and have a myspace maybe that will lead to you being able to have more freedom and maybe your parents will become lss strict
JUst think about it
I hope I helped

I honestly don;t understand some people these days.
When I was 11 years old, almost turning 12. { I know, very young.) My close friend, got a myspace. She told me how cool it was, so I said, MAKE ME ONE!
Back when I was 11 ( I am almost 14 now ) Myspace wasn't a big deal. People knew about it, but nobody really had one, and parents really didn't know about it.
Then when I was about 12 and a half, it started Piling on the news, kids getting raped, people getting kidnapped. My parents confronted me about it. "Do you have a myspace"? I said, no. Of course not.
About 2 weeks after that, I had a party over Christmas Break. Someone blurted the word Myspace, and my mom heard it. THe next day, she goes " I know you have a myspace" and demanded me to show it to her.
My heart beated so fast, I didn't know what I was going to do. There wasn't anything bad on my myspace. I didn't have where I live, didn't have even my age, my city, my country, my state. Only a cute picture of me reading a book on a couch. My mom went through it, and smiled. I wondered why. She told me how proud of me she was that I didn't have anything leading to something that could be dangerous. But she also told me how upset she was I didn't tell her, because it would have been alright if we went over some rules.
However, unfortunatly, you arn't in the same situation I was. Your parents already told you if you were found with one, you would be in big trouble.
You have two options. Tell your mom you had one yourself, or try and convince her how safe it was, then tell her you had one.
I would go with option 2. Myspace isn't dangerous. It's YOU that makes it dangerous. If you set it to private, and you don't put anything leading to your house, city, or whatever, YOU'RE FINE!! Show your parents this advienators page, it might help..
Hope I helped.

This happened to me, want to know what I did?
I told them, I said, "Mom, Dad, i know you are going to be very upset, but you know how it was when you were younger with all the peer pressure. Everyone else had one, and I know I shouldn't follow, but it looked fun and innocent enough. I did have a my space account but I did delete it after I realize what you said, and I understood you, so I hope that by me coming clean to you will not get me in so much trouble because I did get a lesson out of this" and kind of tear up.

Hello.
This is probably a fairly late reply to your qustion but I felt I should reply after reading a few of the other responses.
As you said yourself your parents will eventually find out so there is no denying it at all. The best thing you can do is come clean. I think your parents will appreciate it coming from you than from them finding out from someone else. Tell them you was wrong to do it and that you're sorry but you have deleted it and you will face up to their punishment for not listening to them.
In response to something that twistedsister17 said, those people that do get murdered and raped from the Internet are NOT stupid people who told everyone where they live and all that junk. Lets be clear on something (this is why your parents want to be careful about you telling strangers anything about yourself) it only takes small amounts of 'innocent' details to piece together where a person is from and where they live. Here in the UK it is even more easily done. If someone really wants to find you they can if they have the right information.
I am NOT saying this to scare anyone but this is coming from a person who works at an Internet Security Agency dedicated to protecting kids online from these undesirable kind of people so I do know what I am talking about.
You need to put yourself in your parents place as well. They have made these rules for you for your protection because they quite obviously care about you. Sometimes that is really hard to understand until you are grown up and have kids of your own and you find the situation reversed. Coming clean to them and letting them know you know you made a mistake and that you are sorry is the best thing you can do.
]
I really don't understand parents these days. Myspace is NOT a big deal. Yeah, people get kidnapped and raped off of it, but those are stupid people! (sorry to be mean- but if you post on your profile: "Hi My name is Jane Smith, I live on 123 ABC Lane and go to Mountain Junior High, then yeah...something might happen.)
Don't try to lie to your parents, you want them to think you're mature enough to keep your Myspace. Making excuses will only make you seem immature. If they ask about it, DON'T cry and DON'T whine. Two worst mistakes right there. Calmly admit that you did have a Myspace, and try to explain that it's not that dangerous if you're smart on it.
You could always go to Myspace, and show your parents ALL the safety tips. You know those things you see that say, "Please be aware that myspace is acessed by thousands of users every day...so be careful, blah blah," thing? Show them that. The only reason why parents don't like Myspace is because they don't UNDERSTAND it. Try explaining to your parents how it works- you can set your profile to private so that noone else but your friends can see it, you can block people if they bother you, and if you don't want to be friends with someone, you deny their friend request. Really, myspace has added TONS of new safety features to the site, so show your parents.
I don't know how old you are, but if you're 14+, almost everyone in your age group has a Myspace, and you should tell your parents that too. I got my first Myspace when I was 12, but my Mom made me delete it at first, (just because she didn't want me talking to my sister and her friends on it.) She let me make another one when I was 13, after she understood it better. (My Mom actually MADE a fake myspace just to see what it was all about.) She trusts me completely on it now, and she even takes pictures of me for Myspace. Haha.

Parents aren't stupid.
I know it's a different situation, but I once got incredibly drunk with a friend, threw up everywhere and told my parents I must have food poisoning from the pizza that everyone else had eaten and not been affected by. I thought I'd got away with it but a year on I confessed to my Mum who told me that she'd known all along. Luckily for me, I wasn't punished because my parents figured I'd learnt my lesson from being so ill but your situation isn't going to be that simple.
Your parents expressively forbade you to have a Myspace and you went against those rules. It doesn't matter how unfair you or anyone else thinsk that is because you broke their rules, and as much as it pains me to say it, you should usually do what your parents tell you to.
By deleting your profile you've done the right thing. Now you need to come clean to your parents before your friend's dad does. Tell them that you used to have a Myspace but you realised that it is wrong to disobey them and deleted it and that you are very sorry.
Yes, they probably will find it hard to trust you online for a while but they will be much angrier if they find out from someone else (i.e your friend's dad) that you lied to them.
It may take a while to earn back their trust, but when you have and if you still want a Myspace, try discussing it with them reasonably and maturely. Talk to them about having a private Myspace or having them check it every once in a while to make sure there's nothing bad on your page.
What you have to remember is that your parents love you and they're only being strict because they want to keep you safe. Myspace can be dangerous and it's very easy to get caught up in it and give out personal information to people you don't know, but if used safely and maturely it can be a fun way to keep in touch with friends and meet new people. Your parents just have to know they can trust you.

Really, it's just Myspace.
Not the end of the world.
Sure, you'll get into trouble.
But to tell you the truth - you'll get in a lot less trouble if you just come clean.
Delete it if your parents don't want you to have it. If you still want it, try asking your parents what you can do to compromise.
Trying to hide it is going to make things worse.
As for privacy in AIM - there's no such thing.
Not as long as you live in the same household as your parents. Talk about private stuff somewhere else - like in person.
That's the best way to do it anyway.
]
I'm going to be the irritating voice of conscience and maturity here...
Before you judge my answer, keep in mind that I'm only 19 years old and was in the same situation just 3/4 years ago.
You blatantly disobeyed your parents' rules. Those rules are in place for a reason. As such, you should be punished, and I'm not going to help you find a way to get out of it.
You did the right thing in deleting it. If your friends' parents tell your parents about it, come clean. Tell them that you know what you did is wrong and you understand that you deserve punishment, but that you have deleted the account, and will not be using MySpace anymore.
Then DON'T use it. Try following the rules. You'd be surprised at how much parents know about the real world. They have a good reason for forbidding MySpace. It's not just because they don't understand what it is, it's because they know what it is and what risks are involved in it.
As for 'talking about private stuff on AOL', you have no right to privacy as long as you're in their house, using their internet connection and their computer. So, although you may feel entitled to full privacy, you're not.
I know, I sound unfair, but really, it's all for your own good. With the benefit of hindsight, you'll see that your parents just want the best for you.
]
Hehe.. I hide my too. Funny thing is, I just told my dad today. He seen me go on the website and asked and I always feel like I can tell him the truth, so I told him. Mine is private though. Try telling your parents that yours is private, or make it private. I wouldn't of deleted it, because then they will wonder what was on it that you felt like you had to delete it. I dont think having one is such a big deal as long as it is private. Well good luck. P.S. I'm not sure if my dad will tell my mom, but I trust that he wont. Try to tell one of your parents, the more understanding one. Bye and hope I helped.
]
hiding that you have it would actually make it worse.
if it was so bad then why did you do it? if its that important to you, tell your parents.
honestly, explain to them that it's a fun website and you learn networking as well as how to talk to friends through an online network.
if they're worried about child abusers and what not, explain to them that you only talk to close friends and that you automatically reject anyone you have doubts about. also tell them myspace is top ranked in internet safety.
believe me, they'd want to know from you than having some parent come out and say "LOOK WHAT I FOUND ON HERRR MYSPACE."
]
i think it would be way better if you just told them about your myspace.
that way they wouldnt have to find out from someone else and think that your doing stuff behind theyre back cause they might begin to become a lot stricter with you.
plus its better to find out form you than someone else.
hope i helped
]
Just to let you know, parents aren't as dumb as most kids think they are.
Guess what? If you lie about it or try to cover up the truth to make yourself look innocent, then you parents are going to be way more angry with you when they get to the bottom of the whole thing. The angrier they are, the worse your punishment will be.
I told this to someone else, I will tell you as well:
If my mother told me not to have a myspace, or whatever, and I defied her by having one anyway, when she found out about it, she would have thrown the computer out the window and into the driveway.
She would have then proceeded to back over it then drive over it. She would have done this repeatedly so she knew damn good and well I never disregarded her rules again.
Go ahead. Ask her yourself. She goes by the handle of younggrandma.
]
Delete your history...well you're friends anyways.
hmm, deleting your account was not a good idea--you should've deleted everything on your myspace page, changed your name to something bogus, and then deleted it since I believe it takes a while for it to be completely deleted.
Then if your friend's dad tells your parents, well say that you don't have one and they can check for themselves/her dad mistook someone else's for yours/your friend thought it'd be funny to make you one for a surprise.
]
First of all, relax. I was ina similar situation and stressed out, and my friends mom didnt tell my parents. But they found out because i acted to nervous around them!
Okay. So, if your parents DO find out, then no computer rights. And so, your sure that your friends dad will tell. If you COME CLEAN, and tell your parents, they might have a little more trust in you, and then maybe you could re-gain your computer rights faster.
Also, you could make up a code with your friends and talk about private stuff.
Also, definately use the code 9 thing. When your parents are there, you put 9 at the beggening of ur convo and when they leave, you put 99.
You have options. You could lie, say the myspace isnt yours and that your friends dad dosent know what hes talking about. You could erase that part of your friends history, and then ask your friends dad to prove that you do have a myspace. You could have some friends come over, have them talk about their myspaces, and then tell them how wrong myspace is.and make sure that your parents are listening. Lying is only bad if you get cought. If you can keep your cool and make a good plan, youll be alright either way. Just make sure to cover your tracks. Good Luck with everything!
]
You have a few options.
The first is to lie. I don't recommend it because they will catch you, I guarantee it. And they're more likely to take your friends dads word over yours.
The second is to be honest. Again, not a great idea as you will probably be banned from the computer for a very very long time.
The third is to create another myspace or change it if you still have access. Put "Anywhere, USA" or something equivalent for your town, remove yourself from your schools group or any group having to do with where you live. Read your comments and make sure they're okay. Make sure all of your pics are appropriate- no miniskirts or cropped tops (my mom freaked out because I had a short dress on in a picture). Since your parents don't seem very computer-savvy, creating a "safe" profile should soothe their worries. If you think they will believe it, tell them that you created it before you were banned from myspace and that you haven't really been on since. Make sure you know all your Friends- temporarily delete all bands and people you don't know.
Honestly, don't lie. I tried and got caught. Don't do it, seriously.
Good luck!
]
Your parents don't know what they're doing- letting you go online without an internet filtering system.
It's stupid and pointless for them to say "okay never do myspace" because you can just go on myspace when they aren't looking.
They're not too smart, to be honest.
as to your problem, well, you could change everything about it to some random name like "Munjaba Huniket" and put some picture of an old man on there and be like "20394320 years old" and make the layout something really stupid like fishing-themed and say in the about me like "Hello i'm munjaba and i like to fish in my spare time."
then insist you never had one and ur friend's dad was mistaken.
]
Honestly i personally would lie and deny it all. But if your the type that gets guilty or isent a lier or just plain too nice for it than i would tell them the reason you had one ( probably because "Everyone has one ") and then tell them you deleted it and just beg them not to take away your computer rights. However if you want my opinion ill deny it all. If they say " you have a myspacE" say calmly, " no? who told you i did and laugh afterwards to make it sound stupid that they even asked you that. then they will say ( your friends dads name ) and say ohh he must be mistaken even try searching me if you dont believe me. and since you deleted the account im assuming they wont find anything and you will be freeeee:]]]
]
you probably already got a ton of great advice but here goes:
tell your parents that you had a myspace before they told you not too , and than when they told you nott to , you didnt know how to delete it , so you just never went on. and than just say once your friends dad saw it you logged on and tried figured out how to delete it. idk if they'll believe that but hope so.
]
Ok, some people might not agree with me on this, but i'm going to be honest with you here. If it were me, i'd get rid of the myspace like you did and then if my parents confronted me about it, i'd say i didn't have one. I'd be like you can search my name on myspace or whatever and you won't find me. You could say that one of your friends has pictures of you on their myspace and your friends parents must've seen that and thought it was yours. You know, something like that. Lying probably isn't your first choice or anything, but i think it's pretty serious to have no privacy on the computer anymore and not to be able to use it for a long time. Maybe it's just me, but that's what i'd do.
Well, good luck with everything!

Put your MySpace profile back up, but instead of listing it as a social site with who you know and what you do - make it a professional profile or a profile relating to a hobby, fund raising event etc.
- Choose a professional layout. No glitter, no graphics. Something simple.
- If you choose to create a professional profile (like for babysistting services), list your general experiences and list references as "friends".
- If you choose to create a hobby type profile, list detailed information and links relating to your hobby.
If you parents can see that MySpace can be used without the social data, it would be better.
Next, list their personal e-mail as your login e-mail. This gives them the option to double check everything. However, it won't give them your information to your notes/comments - they won't be able to read your note or change anything.
Finally, sit down with them. Have the create their own profile and add them as a friend. Show them all the ways you can set your profile for privacy. Help them search for their friends and connect again.
]
Well, you could deny everything. and delete every last thing on your myspace, but that probably would be hard, if you've had it for awhile, because i could never trace back allll my comments or anything that ive said to everyone.. but i think also maybe,when you delete ur account, everything gets deleted?
i think basically if i were you, i'd start making something up. i mean, if your parents would really be the way you say they would be, well, pshh. what id say is, yes, i did have one. for like a day, or whatever, but then i felt guilty about having one, when you told me not to, so i deleted it. and i'm really sorry.
and pray that your parents forgive you.
+ my mom used to be like that, she'd always read what i would say online, then i wouldd just start telling her it, and she didnt read it. i mean i dont tell her every little detail, but the ok most stuff. and i basically can do what ever i want. (:

well i have two suggest you could just erase everything on myspace, your page,your acount everything and just dont tell them but then again you dont want to lie to them so you should just have a myspace but dont put anything on there that might get you in trouble. Just explain to them what myspace is tell them that you are carefull of what you doing then maybe they might understand.

My suggestion for you is to play it cool. Before your parents find out, make a new myspace page. Make sure it's very clean, set it to private, and don't reveal ANYTHING personal about yourself. Age, location, nothing. Your parents are going to find out and you're going to be punished. Hiding it will make them think you were being irresponsible. It's not like you were really doing anything wrong on your page. If they see that it was actually very safe and controlled the consequences won't be as bad. Just pretend like you just recently created it and that you never deleted it. What's there is what was always there. Don't forget to apologize profusely for having it. It might also be a good chance for you to say that you thought that you could be responsible about it. Your parents should trust that they've raised you to be cautious and smart about things. Good luck.
PS. Let your opinions be known but don't argue with them. Accept whatever punishment they give you with your head held high. They told you not to do something and you did it. You deserve anything that happens.

maybe if you be honest with your parents and tell them that you had one but realized you werent being good to your parents and tell them that you deleted it maybe they wont be as harsh on you. but then yet i dont know your parents. or you can try to talk to your friends parents and explain to them that you deleted it and everything and tell them that you will loose your computer privileges and if they tell you that they were able to survive without the internet as a child you can be like yeah but things are different now and theres homework and stuff to do.
