My Space horror story

The breaking news in our town where there are about 3,000 people is that last weekend the police apprehended a 38yo man from a town about 50 miles away from here who was coming to town for a sexual liaison with a 12yo and a 13yo girl. These girls are in my dd's 7th grade class (although dd attends a private school in another town now and doesn't go to the local jr high). Rumors are flying (naturally), but we're pretty sure they are close to the truth. My dd was good friends with one of the girls last year and has slept over at her house. DD hadn't told me this before, but now she tells me that this girl has a My Space page that includes the name of the town she lives in. Most likely this man "met" this girl through My Space. This is exactly the reason my dd is forbidden to do My Space or Face Book. Now she can see how close to home this really does hit!

Wow, a hard lesson indeed. Kristen has no interest in Myspace so far for which I'm thankful but I think as other said, monitoring is the trick.
