  1. WAY too young to be given any kind of freedom on the internet.  If it were your daughter what would you say?


  2. I agree with the above poster, go to GoDaddy.com. Sounds like your son is really creative and I think it's nice your supporting him on making his own site! he'll probably be the next computer whiz when he gets older, just be sure he doesn't end up talking to adults online or others withouth permission.

  3. Thats nonsense! Please!

  4. My opinion is that 8 yrs old is too young to do something like that.  I have an 8 yr old and he has a webkinz.  I did just make him his own email address and we starting to work on typing with him, b/c he is my stepson and his mom lives in Hawaii and this is one of our ways of him staying in contact with his mom & stepdad.

  5. ok that would cost ALOT of money

    so i suggest you get him a myspace

    go to myspace.com

    click on sign-up

    sign him up

    you can choose if you want him to have a picture

    and they will walk you through the steps there

    or you could get a faceboock  or a bebo

  6. I think if your son wants to do that it is a great thing and you should definately encourage his intrests.  He could start by making his own webpage.  

    I won't claim to know much about programming or anything but making a livejournal or a webpage for free at webspawner.com could be a good starting place.  If your son keeps them up well then you can continue onto making a website.  

    Good luck getting it started.

  7. if i was you i'd say, wait till you're older

  8. go to myspace.com

    click on sign-up

    sign him up

    you can choose if you want him to have a picture

    and they will walk you through the steps there

    or you could get a faceboock or a bebo

    ABSOLUTELY NOT THAT DUDE IS CRAZY. HAVENT YOU HEARD ON THE NEWS KIDS GET DEPAR (BACKWARDS) BECAUSE OF THAT. ON "MYSPACE YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO BE 15+ YOUR KID IS OONLY 8!!!!!! AN 8 YEAR OLD CAN JUST BE ON THE INTERNET ALL DAY ON THEESE WEBSITES..

    nick.com

    cartoonnetwork.com

    funbrain.com

    pbskids.org

    millsberry.com

    Good LUck with your kid!!!

  9. Try 50webs. You can have it hosted completely free, if you want, there with no ads.

    Does he know HTML and CSS? With those, you can do a lot, and you don't need any special programs.

  10. dat would cost alot of money. plus u got 2 becareful of the internet s*x er fen ders.

  11. Go to GoDaddy.com

    He can create his own website without getting into the snares of myspace or facebook.  He is a bit young for those.  But with godaddy he can pick the websites address and look of it without being too expensive.  I believe it's about $9.95 a month.  I hope that helps.
