  1. its become increasingly safe,

    now a person with an age over 18 cannot add as a friend a person under the age of 18 without them knowing the teenagers email or last name.

    its definitly safe considering you can now block, delete or deny any people who you think are not genuine or potentially dangerous, and you cant do that even in real life.


  2. not really but if they are on there already just put the myspace on private and make sure you are checking there friends list and make sure you know who they are.

  3. I'm almost 30 and I don't think myspace is all that safe for me!

  4. No,people hack into your account and get you into trouble

  5. 4 myspace u have to be 14, if you are under 18 they recommend make your profile Private

  6. No becaue there is a lot of perverts on there..

  7. Myspace is not safe for any age!!!

  8. well i have an account and im 13 and its safe as long as you make your profile private and don't add anybody you dont know but u can add famous ppl because they dont reply back

  9. Not at all. Please don't let a 12 or 13 year anywhere near MySpace. I am 17 and I got off as soon as I got on. Trust me. Its not a fun time- so many viruses, pedators and annoying people from school...

  10. Myspace is safe for that age but their profile should be set to private and they shouldn't accept friend requests from people they don't know.And don't mention where you live because you wouldn't want someone to be able to see it.

  11. Nope. Sorry, but my space is like perverts galore. Just use AIM or something to talk to your friends.

  12. sure just keep it on private. and the parent should check your contacts once in a while. what's the big deal?

  13. I would not recommend a myspace for a child that young- however there is a way that you can protect her/him from people that you would not want to be associating with your child. Set his/her account to private= and monitor it from time to time.

  14. NOOOOOO it si really dangerous and it messes up your computer

  15. I think it's perfectly safe as long as you check up on what's going on.

    Set the profile to private, don't have a display picture of your child, and check the friends list and make sure every thing is ok.

    After all the news reports and stories about internet predators on Myspace, do you really think they're still around?  There are always cops on Myspace now days, lookin for creeps.  Don't put up any personal information and you're fine.

    It's the smaller sites you need to watch out for

  16. no way dude!

  17. I don't think it is.  My 12 year old went behind my back and set up a myspace. She lied about her age so there's no control on it.  She actually hid it from me for about 3 months. I checked it out and it wa ser to private , talking only to her friends, HOWEVER, it is not safe.  I took control of it and deleted the account despite her screaming!!!  Now, I have blocked it and I'm checking her tracks after she's on the computer more often!!!

  18. YES!!! there is noooooo problem with Myspace it is a place for friends to hang out just make sure you have your profile set to private so only the people on your friends list can reach you.

  19. well i am 13 and i have a myspace but my profile is private and my the email addressss to my account is under my moms email addressss so she can see any time i get a new message or comment.there is also a link from the email so she can go read.so yes myspace is safe if takeee care of it.

  20. It's safe as long as they no only accept people they no. put there profile on profile. And don't talk to anyone but the ones they know.

  21. No there are so many people out there that are not who they say they are...and even if you have a private page they can still find way to get to you..

  22. well i have my space and nothing has gone wrong but i dont know .
