My 10 year old stepdaughter has her own laptop, which she is only allowed to use in the living room. She is only allowed on certain sites, like Webkins, iCarly, and other kid ones. Recently, my husband allowed her to join Facebook, which I don't like the idea of. Why? Because she is becoming friends with anyone and she reads her mother's posts, who constantly posts about her drinking and getting drunk. Stuff a 10 year old, especially her own daughter, shouldn't be reading. We told my stepdaughter that she is only allowed on Facebook to play the games, but she's doing other things, too.
Anyway, the other day, I checked out her history, and since she's not allowed to use Google, she used Facebook to search the follwing topics: Sex, naughty pics, and Playgirl. I took the laptop away from her and said she will get it back when her Dad comes back from his trip and has a talk with her. It's been a week. My husband never spoke to her about it, and she's never inquired to get her laptop back. I guess she's afraid to talk to her Daddy about it!
What would you have done?
