"Myspace" madness
When I was a teen, we were encouraged to “express ourselves”. Either in writing, drawing, whatever. Creative thinking was something to be embraced. These days it seems that creative thinking is to be embraced only if it fits “PC” standards. Seems like kids are being raised by the system to be fearful of their own thoughts if it doesn’t fit the mandated norm. “Myspace” seems to allow their creative juices to flow. Yes mom, I know I know. There is such a thing as right and wrong, inappropriate thoughts, consequences for one’s actions, and parental guidance. (On that thought, are we watching what our kids post/watch?) But hear this, those are OUR lessens to teach as parents, Not the governments.
