It's great that you are on her page and can see what she is doing. Keep talking to her about the consequences of her actions, how others feel and how things can be misconstrued online. It may take a while to get through to her but don't give up OR let her push you out completely. The amount that kids are on the internet today is really scary. They are so trusting and naive, leading them to put too much out there sometimes.
I have to comment on that article. I know some of you will say that Billy has the right to go to school, and shouldn't have to stay home because of the bullies. If it were my child, I wouldn't let it go 4 years. Not that the parents aren't doing anything, but after that long, and it seems they are really getting nowhere, I would be pulling my child out of school. I couldn't let my child get that many beatings. I think after the 3rd beating, I would be homeschooling my child. Work opposites shifts if I have to, I wouldn't feel safe sending him to school.
I couldn't afford that reputation defender. Are your parents not monitoring her computer time at all?

Hi Penelope, I am actually caring for my sister at the moment, so it is sort of in my court.
MySpace just seems to be an uncontrolled world of whatever.

Thanks for the nice words. That's the main thing: I don't want her to push me away so that I lose that entry in to her life. Not because I want to snoop, but because I love her.
I wasn't thinking of spying on her, but rather, buying the myChild services FOR her.
