It is medium for them to express themselves, learn about others and of course, explore. It is as important as being seen at A&W was not so long ago. What concerns me more is the new feature in Microsoft Windows Vista that effectively allows parents to spy on their own kids. Not nice. Exposure, just became exposed. Gates & friends think it is pretty nifty. I think it is sad day for privacy, when you let a computer decide whether or not to trust your own kids. What kind of example are we setting for them. Maybe we should spend more time with them instead? I think you have to understand the internet now forms a important part of young people’s social life.
