Name: Michelle
Country: United States
State: Pennsylvania
Metro: Lansdale
Birthday: 3/16/1967
Gender: Female
Interests: Creating art, thought and ideas usually in my dreams, while listening to music or during high emotion. Writing stories, poetry and art colums. Being with my children and my husband. Living in the moment. Creating art in the garden.
Expertise: I analyze the things around me like a writer, but see the world as an artist, I move as if to dance, but speak with the authority of a leader. I can focus with the skill of a scientist, but live in the world of daydreams, listening like a psychologist I can act out a scene. I live not in the black, nor in the white, but you will find me in the inbetween, gray and despised. I can laugh like a child or cry like a clown, forgiving, forgetting, holdin onto my age. I part away the unwanted years. I introduce my unused tears and crouch silently and await the impending fears. I love like a mother, disobey like a child, live like a teen and act like a toddler. I search and explore, admire amd adore, I want out of life somethin more. I look for new ways, new change, the new day. I will count my blessings then give them away. I watch and observe, create what I see, think of the future then write whats to be.

| How is it that we need the morning show on channel ten to tell us how
to keep our children safe? I was just talking to my daughters
about yesterday's program where they were educating parents on how to
keep their children safe on My Space. Everything they were
talking about is already done in my house.
First, why does a kid need a computer in their bedroom? We have
eight people in our family and until Sean started college we had one
computer. Works for me. Keary will get her own computer
once she starts college. Why? Well let's see. How much time
does a child really need on the computer? Not much. An hour
a day if that. Enough time to do their homework, chat with a
friend or two, check their e-mail and yeah, update their My
Space. An hour? Yeah, or less. They need to be
outside, they need to have time to do their chores, have dinner with
their families, have movie nights, and be kids. Nope, no
computers in their rooms.
Don't meet strangers you talk to online? How is this even
possible if you know what your kids are doing? In my house the
only friends you are allowed to have on My Space is people you actually
know or the band sites that the kids like so they can get updates on
what their favorite bands are doing. My girls deny everybody
else. Hard to have a horny old man pick you up if you aren't
talking to him. Oh yeah, that might also go back to NO computers
in the kids rooms. Oh, and setting rules and boundaries of where
your kids go and knowing their friends could also avoid some of those
problems too.
I am just sick to death of all this crap. Where are the parents
today? How is it that you don't know what your kids are doing,
with whom, and why? Do you talk to them? Do you listen to
them? If my kids are in trouble I know about it. If my kids
get mysterious emails. I know about it. If someone does
something inappropriate. I know about it. We eat dinner
together, we cook together, we watch movies together, we hike together,
we talk together. My kids aren't sitting alone in their rooms day after
day. I have to yell because they are tearing my house apart while
goofing off. They take turns on the computer that sits in the
main room of my house.
So anyways, that is just my take on this whole My Space
controversy. I think it is horrible that we need the news to tell
us what we should already know. Wake up parents, these children
are our future and you need to be a bigger part of their lives.
All the money and things in the world aren't going to make them good
kids.
