I am a concerned parent, a very concerned parent. There is an EIGHT year old boy posting onto this site (Religion too). I know its generally the responsibility of the parents, and you do say in your rules get the parents permission first, but how do you know this has happened. I do not think that you should be letting an EIGHT year old boy post on this site generally for his own safety. I have an 8 year old boy, and I would be horrified to find out that he was posting on a predominantly adult site, and that you let him.

"Well the first thing is how do we know the real age of anybody posting to this site. Not, there is no way to verify the email address or the IP number against an age.

I am a parent, as are many others on this site and besides 'having a good time' we also keep an eye on eachother. As soon as anything out of the ordinary is noticed many people will 'jump in' either joining in the discussion or yikes ing any unwise content zen .

On this site most important is dontpanic and knowing where your towel is."
