Does anyone have any advice about this site ? It was mentioned along with one or two other similar web-sites on the t.v. recently (UK), the news item contained concerns about paedophiles and advice that seemed to indicate to me that children should be either closely monitored or stopped from using these sites. I have two young nieces 13 & 15or16 who occasionally visit, and using Dads PC downstairs, they spend hours at this web - site, for what I can only describe as "advertising themselves" on this Bebo web site. It seems to be "trendy" or fashionable for them to advertise to the whole world who they are, what music they like etc, and have lots of what I can only describe at ridiculous photos, taken at peculiar angles - with lots of peculiar facial expressions. ...I must be getting old ! regards, Richard |

All small children should be monitored on any website that requests personal information. If you are that worried put the site on your restricted list Tools.......Internet options.........security...........restricted sites peter -- "Those are my principles.
