What is yahoo 360? My 10 year old wants to download it. Is this appropriate for a 10 year old?

Question

Thanks so much! I had no idea what it was.

Answer 1

No. I wouldn't let him do it.

I have a ten year old. I agreed to let her get AOL messenger because all her friends had it. BIG MISTAKE. She added all her friends and talked to them after school and stuff. Well, I always walked behind her frequently to check things out. About 2 weeks later I walked in and there she was in an AOL CHAT!!! with about 5 of her other friends, as well as people not even on her list. We talked to her and explained she was too young after all, and we needed to delete it.

So.... we set her up a gmail. Gave only her friends and long distance relatives the address and she can share pictures this way. she hasn't got any junk mail (it's turned off) and so far this has worked fine.

Answer 2

looks like no it is lol...

Answer 3

It's kinda like a MySpace page -- he can blog, post pictures, e-mail, etc.

I would be VERY wary of it, and stress to him not to include ANY personal information on there -- the name of the school he goes to, what town he lives in, his regular haunts, etc.  There are a lot of predators and generally creepy people out there...

Answer 4

No, no and no.

Answer 5

it is a community area to meet new people and make new friends, dont think it is good for a ten year old because I was just trying to (i have it on my comp) find out what it is about and I found some very adult content . and you do not have to be comp lit either because I am not ,and I was able to find this ,child unfriendly site.so if you choose to allow the download be very careful .

Answer 6

he's still 10?! and wants to download that? i dont think so.

just be very careful so that he wont download it.

Answer 7

thats a pretty big NO NO!!!

LET HER GO ON.... club penguin, miniclip(some 13+) or webkinz.

I dont go on it and im 35....

lol
