The View just had kids and internet stuff on the show. The had people on to discuss the problems and dangers kids find, but nobody say to keep kids off line, or to restrict their access. The just recommended trying to follow their site histories, and mentioned a group that can track them through their emails. Why do kids need so much access in the first place. Why do they need cell phones and text messaging? This stuff isn't doing them any good in any way. We're raising a generation with no social or education skills. Or very limited and skewed abilities. Any kid who thinks that text talk goes over well in employment is just so wrong. And they all will. Why? Kids can't think, that's why. It's what makes them kids. They haven't spent even 1 minute as an adult yet. What would they know? And they all think they know it all.

The Duggars, the family with 18 kids, keep strict controls on the sites their kids can access. It can be done. Only a couple of kids know the password for their acceptable sites and have to get the littler kids on line. They use the net for education resources since they homeschool, maybe some games, I don't know. But if they can control 18 kids, anybody can control one or two or 3 or 10.

Why would people let their 14 year olds have facebook and myspace pages in the first place? It's pure madness. They'd be spending their lives policing their kids, uh, explorations.
