MySpace is a way for teens to communicate. Nothing else.
Actually, myspace has turned into just a whore of a site where there is porn, ads for porn, groups that are not appropriete for kids etc.

I don't really know if its your ignorance, or your sheer lack of knowledge about these sites, that really irritates me. If someone is giving out their information to a 67 yr old posing as a 14 year old, then no its not their problem, nor do they have bigger issues. THe bigger issue is making sure kids are aware of the potential dangers OF these sites. No one is who they say they are, and to be quite honest, you can never tell. I'm not saying get their password, and try to snoop around, but they should be told about who and what is on myspace.
Do you know who your kids are chatting with right now? Didn't think so......
