If the MYSPACE is being used on a school computer even from home the school should punish the students. If it is your own personal pc your parents bought then that is on them(the parents) to keep an eye on their own children.

Kayla, being a teen, I think you are not seeing the dangers associated with providing too much personal information in a public forum such as MySpace. The reaction of schools may seem harse, but they are trying to protect. There are people using MySpace as a trolling ground; sexual predators, pedophiles and the like. Not everyone on the internet are really who they claim to be. Caution is definitely advised here.

No, Don't get me wrong...I know there is dangers but the fact that they want to punish everyonewho has a myspace is completely ridiculous! I have NEVER done anything but get on there and talk to my friends and to accept friend requests from people i know I don't think I should be punished for a few peoples bad moves. Everyone seems to think its "of the devil" and not a nice place. Well that's BS. Everyone I know doesn't do anything wrong on that website, yet we still get called to the office and punished for it? Outrageous.

I agree! First of all, Myspace and many other websites are already blocked on the school PC's. No one can even get ON at school. Why would it be the school's business what we do at home and what our parents allow us to do.

I don't see where they can punish anyone IF it's being done FROM HOME ON a HOME computer.

Exactly! That's why I am so heated. They are beginning to punish us for the things we do at home. What's next?
