What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Arkansas
Not sure where to exactly put this thread.
My 11 year old has free run of the internet at her father's house. She has created numerous profiles - with the help of her 14 year old stepsister. Each has had a different email linked to them, so she's getting those created as well. They are using very provacative pictures of girls as her profile pictures and the language is quite undesirable of an 11 year old.
I have reported it as underage to Facebook, but of course one profile goes away, another comes up in place.
I've discussed the dangers of this with her father. But I'm just the mean strict mommy. I've taken the child to the various internet safety classes in our area, through her school, through the library, etc. But it's as if Daddy says it's okay, then it's okay and nothing bad will happen.
I am just worried sick with god only knows what she has been exposed to - and I worry about her safety because even with all the talks and punishments she has posted her name, her school, her dad's address, etc. I don't think she is getting it!
Her computer usage is limited at our house. I am also tempted to say no computer until she straightens up at her dad's, but I see it backfiring and really don't like to punish for things that occurr at dad's.
Any suggestions????
