2. I understand...
I am a high school teacher and helped one of my students enroll today. I warned him about such things, namely to keep his age to himself. One never knows who is lurking about.

3. I can see that aspect, I suppose...
But what about user-agreements and such? Am I the only one who reads them?

4. I see your point,
Edited on Mon Nov-15-04 07:17 PM by Dzimbowicz
but some people will misrepresent themselves for a variety of reasons/purposes and agree to things to which they have no intention of abiding.

If you can obtain enough support for your group, more power to you. I do think teens need an open forum where they can discuss ideas with others who share similar perspectives.

But, like I posted earlier, there are lurkers and trollers who might try and prey upon young people. On the other hand, young people need to learn to stand up for themselves as soon as possible because it is a mean world out there.

I wish you the best of luck with your endeavors.

On edit: I took the test on your web site and made a 100.
