Parents, if your kid has a live journal or a blog or whatever you want to call it, I hope you are checking it out occasionally. It would not be a bad idea to read some of their friends' journals. If your son has a girlfriend, you darn well better be reading that! (It will probably make you gag, but do it anyway. Teenage girls are so sappy about their boyfriends.)
Of course, if you don't care what your kid is doing and who they are with, then don't bother.
And don't give me any garbage about invading their privacy. It's on the internet, for pete's sake. Just do it. Being a parent is not pretty.
Oh, and if you want to know why I am making this suggestion, just hit the button at the top of the page that says "next blog" and find a few teen blogs. That will explain my concern.
