It seems to be particularly repulsive when that kind of thing happens on a web site. I tell everyone to beware when creating an account on these chat boards. And I do know my one son (the other never joined) and a lot of my their friends are abandoning them because they are just so silly, and obviously invasive.

won't let her have a cell phone with texting capabilities not only because of the distraction but because it warps these kids ability to learn how to properly socialize.

I believe that is true. While I don't support any laws that would prohibit cell phone use by teens, it makes more sense than shaking them down for having tylenol in their purse.
