As safe as anywhere else on earth. Sure, if you give away personal information on it, that's not safe, but that doesn't have anything to do with the site itself now does it? Running down the street yelling "I'M 12 AND LIVE AT BLAH BLAH BLAH STREET AND MY PHONE NUMBER IS BLAH BLAH BLAH" is just as unsafe.

MySpace was originally created for the music scene. The fact it is now a haven for teenie boppers and "HEY LOOK AT ME!" sites is ridiculous. Its another place for internet predators to do their thing. Parents dont monitor their childrens doings on the net. Just recently I saw a news story that a few kids were exchanging thoughts on a copy cat act of the Columbine shootings on its anniversary. The police were tipped about the myspace account and they kids were arrested. I think myspace needs to be monitored better and possibly put back to the roots it was originally made for. I mean there is enough other places to "whore" yourself.

i dont think everyone who is associated with myspace should be punished because of the basic stupidity or immorality of others. myspace should be treated as a simple website where people meet new friends and reminisce with old ones but instead it is used by perverts and young people who want to explore things they know they shouldnt. for me myspace is the only way i can communicate with most of my out-of-state friends since im an army brat who moves around alot so i need it. people just need to teach their children how to stay safe. we also need to find and keep perverts off the streets.

There is a whole segment of people that have a whole list of different (wierd) fetishes. To them it seems very normal to behave that way. In some cases they just dont respect themselves, others, or have been the product of abuse. I have a myspace and it has helped me network. I get great advice from others on building my race cars as well as I find out where and when some of the local reggae concerts are going on. Myspace is not all bad but it aint all good either

It's like most of the rest of the internet:  it, itself isn't necessarily safe or unsafe.  it's how you use it.  Don't give out personal information or post photographs in places people can use to find you (like in front of your house).  Don't go meet strangers or invite them over.  Don't even give out your favorite email address if it has too much information in it (name of your school/business with your full name).\n\nIf you're asking whether or not it's safe for your kids, then the answer is "no."  Kids tend to be too trusting on the internet and feel safer than they really are.

the news has provided alot of reasons why it isn't safe for those who provide too much information. Girls lie about their age.... you must be 14 to open up an account, do you actually think that 11 and 12 year olds are not on myspacE? they lie about their age just to get onto myspace and join the trend. and sometimes young girls seek out for attention. There are men out there who are lying about their age and perhaps provide fake pictures claiming that thats who they are. The girl and the older man can start a relationship and the girl thinks she has these feelings like he's the one she needs in her life and will meet him. Other teens provide too much iformation ....where they live, what school they go to, where they work at...and so on... \n\nMyspace comments can cause alot of drama also...i've noticed on my friends myspaces they are like talking about someone who i know, saying  that he's gay and so on... saying rude comments when this person is on their friend list.  Blogs allow kids to vent about whats bothering them... and may say things to hurt other people also.  So....what i am saying is that myspace is a way to gossip.\n\nAnother reason to be against it... it allows us to procastinate... seriously, you'll find kids online when they have homework. So many are obessive over myspace usually just wondering what the latest gossip is.\n\nalso, you're suppose to get approval of your friends before you post their picture on your profile... i don't believe everyone actually does. Alot of photos contain underage drunking and drug use... i think that teens think that's cool and want to get a picture of themselves drinking or smoking, just to look cool. \n\nSurveys ask whats ur full name and usually people will provide their full name.... phone numbers are exchanged.... basically myspace is a place that provides too much information....and the rules are not always followed.\n\ngood luck on ur speech.

If you mean people's accounts disappear on Myspace, yes, that obviously happens. If you mean people physically disappear aka get kidnapped or killed due to Myspace, that is true as well. But you have to be lacking in common sense for that to happen--most of the time it's giving personal information (ex: home address or phone) to strangers online that leads to people's general disappearance.

Yes mam its a safe website with skype and all that. Its pretty cool but i'm not on there anymore. Turned out pretty gay haha. But u should go for that instead of myspace because its way safer and there's good security.

Yea, I would just stay away from that..\nI would really just stay away from Myspace all together.

It is only for people over 18 years old.  If little kids are lying about their ages (which they ARE), then their parents should be responsible for the consequences, not myspace.com.

myspace is trouble if you don't know what you are doing !! Be very careful about giving out your private information. They are not to be trusted !!!

my opinion:\n\nmyspace is safe.\nbut a lot of people give out too much information.  on there pages they put little hints for others to find them.  \ni DO NOT let someone be my friend unless i know them in real life.  that includes people who go to my school, but don't talk to me.  why should i add a bunch of people and call them my friends?  whats the point?  doesn't make me any cooler.\nparents told us to not talk to strangers, why does that change when your online?

I find that myspace is a great way to keep in touch with people I don't see often. I can look at pics of them and their kids, read their blogs, etc.  I'm certainly not 12, a slut, or a person with no life, but I think myspace is useful and fun.  It's addicting though, you'll want to log in every day!

they can do whatever they want on there and no one cares or gives a fuck! i say it should be shutdown and never come back! to many kids get killed and kidnape because there not smart enough not to give there personal stuff like where they live, and there picture, and phone number no since people found out about myspace they get to abuse and kill kids it wrong and should be gone for good

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.
