the prob. is that these kids have no life in the real world. they live online, and that is their reality. They have no ability to judge truth from fiction. There has to be a way to get them outside, interaction with others, having experiences, getting exercise.
This 'ban' won't work. A kid will join a site using his parent's name, for example.
