    I don’t get it. So someone let 11 yo kid use internet unmonitored and it’s the Internet’s fault? Isn’t it up to parents to know when their kid can go on the internet alone?

        I didn’t have internet until I was able to take responsibility for what I do with it. Not because my parents were so smart but because it simply wasn’t available where I lived. The only thing that affected me negatively for life was religion and I totally believe my parents are responsible, not the bible.
