I've seen alot of things discussed on this thread and most of it is essentially arguing about privacy issues. Well there's a reason you don't allow your 13 year old son to lock his door when he has a girlfriend over and there's a reason you check on them frequently, because no matter how good a kid he is, he has hormones and the girl also has hormones and these hormones will outweigh their judgement in a lot of instances. If you're letting your kid surf the internet or send pictures on their cellphones without periodically checking on them, then you're essentially telling them, "Hey you can do whatever you want in there, don't worry about me, I'm just going to stand out here and unless I hear something, you're fine."
Don't wait til you hear something, be proactive, because the hot night elf that your son is getting hooked up with, could be a fat man with a sore on his stomach. Also I'm not a doctor, but that appears to be a diabetic ulcer to me. Anyone who knows about Meth, knows most of those people don't eat, because it's an appetite supressant. If he'd been doing Meth long enough to get sores, he wouldn't be that overweight.
If you're reading this, you probably need to get some sun.
This is why I actively monitor what my kids and my gf's kids do when they are online. I have a key logger and parental control software installed. I also make them play off my accounts in any MMO and I will routinely log into their characters, and talk to people on their friends lists. You can never be too careful honestly.
amen, good parent here. need more responsible and accountable as you. keep up the good fight.
