    I appreciate all the great advice. I will try to put them into practice. I just hope I am not too late on this one. It has now gotten to the point where he won't even talk to me, and when he does, he acts like I am the enemy. Wish me luck.

    moms are the enemy when ur a teenager. Its just the way it goes ;)

    But hopefully if all goes well he shall come around like I did =\

    "Just dont be an idiot and you are fine"

    You don't have to be an idiot to think it is evil...

    The GA's say it is...

    they aren't idiots...

    wow twist my words more please....

    I never said that they are idiots. I would never say anything like that because its far from what I believe. Please show a little more respect thanks.

    If you know what your doing you usually dont have to worry about it infecting your machine. =\

    Josh, just how many of us common people know exactly what we are doing on the internet/computer? How many 12-13-14, etc. year olds know what they are doing on the internet/computer?? Get real.

    When I stated that my Stake President informed us - that is exaclty what happened.

    For your (everyone, actually) information a Stake President can NOT just opt to relate a Cyber theory - or story - or legend. Before he makes any type of announcement like the one my Stake President made, he must have written approval from the First Presidency.

    Doubt me? Then go ask your Stake President. I did before I ever started that link. I also asked his permission to post it. :ph34r:

    Im not saying that you are lying, i believe you. All im saying is that everyone SHOULD know what they are doing.

    Myspace can be a safe and spirutal place IF you handle it correctly. All of my friends have myspace and its a way for us to commiunicate. My Bishop has myspace and we make appointments for hometeaching through myspace. All of his daughters have myspace too.

    Myspace isnt all bad, it depends on the way you use it. I block the pornagraphic ads that are displayed, I dont go around to random peoples profiles. You can set your profile to private. Just dont be an idiot and you are fine.

    I will see my grand babies in three weeks give or take a day, for Thanksgiving.

    I opened my mouth and offered to go there and cook. OOOPs??

    My oldest son lives by them as well.

    I finely remembered to tell my son in law that the oldest one told me she wants new under wear. He said I just bought some??? I said check it out she says its to tight.

    Under wear shopping over the phone 100’s of miles away.

    She likes Dora underwear, my fault I buy a lot of Dora stuff.

    That’s why his apartment is so pink, he does not mind.

    heh thats pretty funny.

    Im glad everything is ok for now. It breaks my heart to hear of your grandchildren's and son in law's situation. They well get through if they have faith ;)

    I am an adult - Grandma age adult.

    I started a topic about MySpace.com See Here

    Where I work, two of the employees spend more time on their myspace sites then they do working. Because of them downloading pictures taken from others sites there, they brought in a bug and we lost a computer. We were fortunate that our main database has an excellent firewall - but losing that computer hurt us, not to mention the cost of reformatting it, and the cost of the person to come in and do it.

    They both got fired, and we implemented better web blockage.

    Our Computer guy is dead set against myspace.com too. He has the enforcement agencies as his clients here, and they have been plagued with viruses, bugs, and systems crashing because of employees visiting this site. IF major business are banning this site and terminating employees over using it on company time - then perhaps parents should take a better look at having their children on this site.

    If you know what your doing you usually dont have to worry about it infecting your machine. =\

    Why thankyou.

    I’ve had a lot of experiences with this major trial in my life. I can finally see many wonderful blessing that I’ve gained from such a big trial.

    The thing I treasure most from this situation in my life is the fact that I will better be able to see paths that will lead to separation and divorce and avoid them.

    I hope things turn out for the best for you're family.

    "And if men come unto me I will show unto them their weakness. I give unto men weakness that they may be humble; and my grace is sufficient for all men that humble themselves before me; for if they humble themselves before me, and have faith in me, then will I make weak things become strong unto them." -Ether 12:27

    I am very sorry to hear this. I have had some experience with this from a child’s point of view. My parents got divorced when I was around 12 years old (I’m 17 now). I can see the poor choices my father had made and how quickly it turns into separation and divorce.

    Wickedness does not promote rational thought.

    It doesn’t make any sense to us as to why someone would leave their children but when people make wicked choices, they get confused, lost, and they no longer are close to their heavenly father. It all starts with the little things; violent shows and movies, shows that express a little sexual content. Then it all adds up, and adds up, then poor choices on the internet. They want to feel happy, but in turn they are only finding a temporary pleasure that will soon feel like hell. Then again it might not to them. They might have gotten in so deep that they lost their light of Christ.

    It can be very hard sometimes, but you must find ways to love them every though their choices go against everything you have taught them.
