They will delete it, if you are not use it for a while. If you are not using it, why bother to delete?

keep it hidden and do not use it until your birthday comes around.  then tell them that your friend got it for you for your birthday.  you can't say no to a birthday present.  if they accuse you of anything say, "mom, dad, they gave it to me for my birthday because you wouldn't let me have it earlier.  it is a genunine gift.  please let me have it now."\n\nta da.  don't sneak around with it.  they would find out.

Facebook, but I really only use it to house photos that I know I might accidentally delete.

Both are safe if you don't give your personal info to these people, I've had problems on Myspace because I wasn't so smart and put my personal details on my page and I've had alot of women stalk me saying they love me, it's scary.

Now is the time in your life when going to the mall with your friends is just naturally the thing to do.  She is sheltering you like a 10 year old and I wouldn't put up with it.  You can't get these years back after they're gone.  Before you know it, you'll be 18 and on your own with responsibility of having to work everyday to pay bills, unless you go to college.  I'm sure your mom means well, but when I was 14, I had the most fun of my entire life doing things with my friends.  I wish I could have those days back.  Go out and make some good memories that you can remember when you get old.  Sitting in the house and being a good girl gets boring....Go for it!...)(

It sucks!!! I had it and I accidently deleted everything on it so I just decided to delete the whole thing. I think it was built for adults but teens took over. Plus 75% of the people on their lie about themselves. I no this because there are so many people in my school that are freshmen that say their like 20 so honestly whats the point? You don't really find out about people anyway and a bunch a people have been raped and stuff because of it. Share your info with your friends and forget about MySpace. It's just a place for teens to waste their time anyway because we have nothing else to do but hang out with friends and talk about people with our pathatic lives (lol)!

My Space is a friend network site where people can blog, "add friends", chat with other people through forums and house a profile.The profile is the hive of the activity in general on My Space. "Friends" on My Space are people that you have approved to comment on your profile. With most general users of My Space "Friends" are usually people you know. Artists and Celebrities are exceptions to this.\n\nFor the most part My Space is fairly tame however, as a parent you should be aware of the pictures she is putting on her profile. Usually there isn't a lot of information posted about the user on there profile other then general info like favorite bands, favorite movies etc. I would recommend a little talk about what to post and not post on my space. Without trying to invade her privacy, be casual about wanting to look and view her my space profile including the pictures. \n\nMy Space can be a safe and fun place as long as precautions are taken. I shouldn't be too worried about her activity though.

I would try to send Tom an email and let him know your situation. He should be able to help you, or send a message to the support on MySpace, that will help :-)

Yes, I did not do the myspace thing for awhile and that is all everyone was talking about for a long time so I finally broke down and got a account. Almost everyone I know has one if you use it the right way it can be a really cool place to keep in touch with family, friends and old people that you have not seen.

Dump Myspace, shut down, reboot and reload.\n\n  Remember to configure your firewalls to accept this data.

It really depends.  If a minor is using myspace and they put all sorts of personal information on their myspace then it could be dangerous as sexual preditors are lurking out there.  Parents should really monitor their child's myspace.  \n\nMy daughter & I have a great relationship and I monitor her's all the time.  She shows it to me, she even gave me her password so I can monitor some of her friends for their parents because their kids have their myspace set to private.

Since this is a good friend, she should already know your mom, I wouldn't see any harm in it. Just tell her later that your husband got called out of town so you invited your mom. No big deal. I wouldn't worry about it.

Try it and if it gets deleted then you couldn't have it. I think they will give you a warning before deleting your whole account.

Yes, there has been alot of negativity circulating around about MySpace.com lately, but ,like the rest of the internet, you have to use common sense when using it. I'm very cautious about the information that I give out anywhere on the internet. \n\nI have a MySpace account that I only use to add music artists that I like as my friends. I also have a few friends who are my Yahoo 360 friends on there as well. \n\nDespite all of the negativity surrounding MySpace, it has several features that allow its users to stay safe while using it. First of all, you can make it so you have to accept or deny someone who wants to be your friend. That way if you see something you don't like all you have to do is deny it, block the person, and ,if it's really bad, report them to MySpace. Second, you can approve or deny all comments that are made about your site. That way if someone says something you don't like then you can easily delete it and ban the person before anyone else ever sees the comment. Third, you can make your MySpace page private so that only the people on your friends list can see your page. This would probably be a good idea for your daughter. \n\nBasically what I'm saying is talk to your daughter and explain to her that you're concerned about her safety at MySpace ,and the rest of the internet, and tell her that you want her to be careful when using it. I've included several resources below to help better educate yourself and your daughter about the dangers of the internet and how to practice online safety. I hope you will take a look at them. \n\nI got the following from http://www.safeteens.com/teenrules.htm\n1. Keep Your Identity Private\n2. Never Get Together with Someone You “Meet” Online\n3.  Never Respond To E-Mail, Chat Comments, Instant Messages Or Other Messages That Are Hostile, Belligerent, Inappropriate Or In Any Way Make You Feel Uncomfortable\n4. Talk with your Parents About Their Expectations and Ground Rules for Going Online\n\n\n\nGuidelines For Parents from \nhttp://www.safeteens.com/safeteens.htm#Guidelines_for_Parents_0\n\nTalk with your Teens About What They Can and Cannot Do Online\nBe reasonable and set reasonable expectations. \nLearn Everything You Can About the Internet\nCheck Out Blocking, Filtering and Ratings Applications\n\nHave fun and stay safe!!

not just on my space but everywhere there are predators who pretend to be someone they are not.  your mother is just trying to elimate the possibility that you might be physically hurt or preyed on.  besides...if only all your friends have it, whats the point if you can call them or talk to them at school?

You should hide your myspace profile so that it's only viewable to people on your friends list -- remember, anything you post on the Internet is public domain!
