Do you think there are PEDOPHILES in Myspace?

Of course there are. They show them on tv just about every day getting arrested for showing up at one of the kids houses. They are pigs. Sooner or later no parents are going to let their children be on my space. Anytime there is any kind of chat room there is always a pervert that shows up. It is disgusting. The kids want to have a place to talk to their friends and the pervs ruin it for them. Most of the parents make their kids have private pages so you have to be allowed to see that persons my space. But some kids dont. It is a parents responsibility to make sure their child is on my space doing the right thing. They can open a myspace account too and watch what the kids are doing. That is what most parents do.

Yes I think there are pedophiles on myspace, they are everywhere. But I don't know what myspace could do to protect children. One solution would be to restrict the site to adults? If I had a child who has the age to use a cumputer I wouldn't allow them to go on social networking sites like myspace.

I'm sure there are. But I don't think that is MySpace admin's problem. It's hard to catch those people. Instead parents should teach their kids to assume that anyone they don't personally know from school is someone they shouldn't meet.

Well of course there are pedophiles! They are everywhere! It is not the responsibility of myspace to protect our children or to deal with pedophiles. My children have myspace pages but are not allowed on their pages unless I am home and basically hovering over them. I know all the people on their friends list and I have the passwords to all of their pages, therefore I can go and sign into their pages anytime I want. I believe it is up to the parent to keep track of their children and to know who their children are talking to. I understand when they become older it is hard to do that, hopefully I have installed good morals into my children enough and frightened them enough about pedophiles that they will never make the mistake of being lured in by a pedophile. So as for your questions, no it is not up to myspace to protect our children. Thanks for the post.
