I just happened upon your blog and read this post. i LOVE it! i don’t have any kids, and i feel the SAME WAY you do about everything you talked about in this post. which means i was half laughing my ass off, half pissed to high hell about the little racist david and fast ass megan. I also have a 19 year stupid little sister who worries the fuck out of me with her boy obsession.sigh.

Sadly, I am not surprised at any of this. (I mean the convos Kali was or wouldve been having, not you snooping) Shoot, I was only Kali’s age 10 yrs ago and I remember the explicitness in the convos of my classmates. It was something very similar if not more intense. Now I am like “Damn, why were we so quick to grow up?” I WISH I was 10 again. I’d do it different. I damn sure would.

that last comment was for mizChartreuse

on another note, forgot to mention that apparently the kids in Dei’s class know what “sexting” is and that some little girl texted a little boy and said “i want to see your thing and i want to see your friends thing too”

of course DeijahMcSnitchy had to inform the teacher of this transaction and the girl got a referral…

I can’t speak for all kids, but with my kid it wasn’t that she “had” to have one and it definitely wasn’t a case of her asking for one because other kids had one. In fact, it was after she mentioned at school that she had one that some of her girlfriends asked their parents if they could have one.

Kali has a Facebook account because she liked playing the Zynga games on my account: Farmville, Petville, Yoville, etc. It was easier to let her have her own account so she could play the games when she wanted and how she wanted when I needed my laptop. I monitor her usage and her friends list. Her only friends are family members who I know do not post excessive questionable content for a ten-year-old and school friends. I am her friend as is Donny, but we block her account from seeing our status updates in her news feed.

I can’t hate on the idk, omg, or srsly. But something about “u” makes me nuts! But when kids are that age, textspeak is acceptable.

First of all, I guess I’m a big fuddy duddy but I don’t understand why 10 year olds need to have a facebook account. Okay, actually I do (because everyone else has one and God forbid that a kid doesn’t cause then they’re a total nerd) but I’m so glad if that Kali has you monitoring it because it can get damned scary. I just read an article about a 15 year old who killed herself because of harassment on Facebook and in school.

I’m getting ready to have my first grandchild and I may have to quit my job and homeschool that child. God forbid that they be one iota different than anyone else in their class or too cute or too smart or too anything.

You go Nina and keep on teaching that pretty girl of yours the right way to be. I wish there were more parents like you.

That’s what Donny said! He was like, “Her parents are preparing her for her life on the pole.” So wrong.
