My girls both have a myspace and facebook - as do I
. I think they had it since around 12 or so. I have their passwords and check it regularly. Key is supervision.. if you deny them access to it, they're just going to open an account elsewhere and now you have no way to monitor. I created my myspace just so I could watch what they were doing and who they were talking to etc.. now I've found so many old friends on there.. I love it. I don't check it everyday or anything, but it really nice to keep in touch with. I even found my birth mother (for the 2nd time) on facebook.. so it can come in handy.
