 and I have plenty..A child's going to do what a child's going to do regardless of how much you warn or threaten them. I watch 11 year old twin girls that I introduced to the internet I explained to them in no uncertain terms if ANYONE they didn't know tried to contact them in IM or e-mail to tell them to hold on while they get their father the cop who's head honcho of vice in our city. I think most kids are pretty internet savey these day, even my 7 year old grandaughter has no problems finding her way to kid sites (probably sites I wouldn't condone too they're sneaky)

The thing with anyone (not just kids see:adults who join cults) you're either proned to do that type of thing or you aren't. A child can have the best, most informative parents in the world but if they're a bonehead by nature it doesn't matter. Funny thing too, the older they get the more they know and the less you know <~according to them anyway) I use to have a fridge magnet that said "Be sure and ask your children while they still know everything"....sigh...JMO..7 kids and and 10 grandkids later

PS:The only one of all my kids and now grandkids that watched the soaps at that age is one of my sons. He ditched school to see Luke and Laura get married. The rest couldn't stand them (my daughter did get into them at the ripe old age of 19-preggers with nothing better to do)
