There's a big diff between having a rule about cussing, etc., and
demanding
access to other people's kids accounts, which is what Tosk was saying.
Seeing what other people are writing is pretty easy if you have access
to
your kids' account. Why would you need access to other parents' kids'
accounts?


I don't have the details but there is a news story on tonight's news
about some web based tracking software that will crawl all over your
kid's facebook posts and send you a summary of every page they are
involved with.

I guess we are teaching them about Big Brother early.


Good for them... I have always let my kids know I will be there
watching, and they trust me for being honest about it. I show up here
and there to make sure they are where they say they are going to be. I
know all the passwords for my kids computers/phones etc and every once
in a while I go back through her logs, most times while she is sitting
right there, she laughs about it... accepts that fact that as a parent I
consider it my job..

Can you imagine being the first President since President Carter, to be
compared to President Carter?


And, apparently you know all their friends' passwords also? I say total BS.
