Jessica reports
Our latest crack tipster brings us a slew of MySpace stories.
The first one is about a middle school teacher by the name of Gerald Gapsuan who was fired from Challenger Middle School after parents complained about his MySpace for having “inappropriate” images. I think a lot of parents need to unwad their panties and teachers should really learn to keep their MySpaces private to avoid just such an incident.
The other story she brings us is about a 14-year-old boy from Louisiana who was arrested for stalking a girl and her sister on MySpace. As usual it needs to be asked. Where were the parents on this one?

hmmm. wher are the parents? good questions. parents do need to wake up and pay attgention however teachers need to smarten up. OUr teacher frequebtly surfs her personal emails and my space during classtime. Our school will not take any further action to stop this even though students have reported to parents having seen inapprorpiate content.
Firstly a teacher shoudl be able t make it through the day without surfing the internet? otherwise perhaps they have a problem. Other places of business regulalry check employees internet use so why are we not checking teachers? Oh yes they are inafalible. Not only does out teacher do this she als started websites with our kids at piczo, registered them with her email and changed their dates of birth in order to make them 13. then she posted the name of our school on her homepage and did not monitor that some kids had posted their own pics as profile pics. so yes parents should pay attention but if these sites are created without knowledge or consent what do you do?oh those innocent teachers ever protected by their powerful uonions. our school hushed up the inncident and took no emergency measure to remind kids and parents about predator safety and internet safety. It will be hard to hush of murder and abduction if that is the end resutl of this idito posting our kids and their whereabouts in the internet for any freak to see.

Uuuummm..maybe schools should ban myspace off the computers at the schools. That’s what my school did after finding out that enough students check their myspace they banned it from being used and had it blocked with some “sonic wall filter” thingy. But yeah it is the parents responsibility. You can not blame myspace for the actions of what kids do these days. It is their choice to go meet whoever they meet on myspace anyways. Most kids lie about their age too. I have read a lot of stories about teenagers being killed, kidnapped, and rapped because they had gone out of their way to go meet this “someone they know” person. How stupid is that? I’ve read that 16 year olds, such as myself, go and do stupid things like this. I mean, where’s the frickin common sense you retards? Holy crap. GET A CLUE!!!
