Bath my eldest dd is 14 in a few weeks and I let her go with her friends to our city of Bunbury but Id certainly feel different about her wondering the streets Perth! I think we have to enable them a certain degree of independence but it does have to come with responsibility and trust. We tend to go up and down in the trust arena with our dd. I hear you on the myspace...I think its an outlet more than anything but its one that is needing to be censored more and more!
