My 11 year old daughter clicked on a Bebo link for Bebo TV and it showed a video of a woman having sex with a horse/donkey [slightly edited for site appropriateness]. Bebo should be shut down for this!!!!!!!!!!!! she is on this along with her softball friends and they should have something done to them. signed MAD PARENT -- Edited by Anne at 01/08/2007 10:15 AM

I haven't encountered that problem. Are you sure it is not your computer? Anyways, I have a Bebo account and I keep it on private.

I do not believe that bebo should be shut down...I think that you should take your 11 year old daughter off bebo. I am sure that there is an age limit of 13 and over for this site anyway. So therefore your daughter is in the wrong not bebo!! If you do not believe me read this in (Terms) on bebo!! signed -bebo user- P.S: learn how to control your daughter

Look, i have bebo. its really asum, but i agree with you on somethings Mad Parent, yet totaly disagree with you on others. I agree that bebo should check videos that are uploaded for things like what your daughter found. thats wrong and totaly disgusting!! yet, your 11 yr old lied to get on bebo, bnecause you have to be 13 or older to get an account. its your daughters fault that shes on it. I have friend who are 27 and 21 who are on it. You should manage your childs internet time a bit more efficiently and if your child wants to sign up for something, READ IT FIRST!!!!!! Bebo is fun and a great way to stay in touch with friends and family. xxdevil_666xx

Dean>>> Don't think youshould have posted such a hateful message.. Who are you to judge another person, just by reading one thing? If you think that the topic is just non-sense, just don't bother posting, or try to be more kind.

Oh God, here we go another "mad parent" that is offended and the whole world must stop posting anything this parent finds offensive. If it wasn't so sad it would be comical. Anyone posting this stuff whether they be 14 or 40? Really? 40? I'm almost 40 and I got news for you, you are not going to dictate to me what I can and cannot see. You already have no control over your kid but you're going to tell me what I can do. Yeah Right! I've never been to BEBO but will soon check it out, sounds like it's great for ADULTS! What has come to my attention is that you have no control over your kid (says alot about your parenting skills and you). You apparently are one of those "offended" quite often about anything and everything. You want to "control" and "monitor" everyone else,but can't seem to get it together in your own house. My answer to your problem is simple. Throw your computer away and stay off the internet. Someone like you does not belong on it, period!

I beg to differ. While there are apparently some porn pages on Bebo, that is not the intent of the company. It's my understanding that they will promptly take down porn pages if they know about them. If you have a list of specific pages that you feel should be removed, please send them to admin@blogsafety.com. We don't open those pages (we don't want to look at it either) but we will get it to the appropriate people at Bebo. Thanks -- Larry Co-director BlogSafety.com

Dear Mad Parent, I understand completely what you are feeling about Bebo. This social site is nothing but, a form of porn that our children can get to with in a few seconds. I have made it my mission the last few months since, I had discovered my children were on this site. I was so disgusted with what I have seen, it makes me sick to my stomach. The personal info that my children had on their profile was enough to scare the hell out of me. We since, then have made them cancel their profiles on these so-called social sites. I keep track and google their names quite regularly to make sure they are not setting up new accounts. We have also banned them from the internet at our house and have made it clear to them that we are keeping tabs on them. After checking into my step child's account and the friends that my step child was keeping, I soon discovered hardcore porn. I have taken it upon myself to monitor and report these crimes. I have reported over 400 to Bebo itself but, that is a lost cause because, they just come back as fast as they are canceled or their accounts are made private. I also noticed that these profiles, the users have their little pornographic icon photos and very crude usernames. When these accounts are canceled or made private these images are still there. When you click on them it will tell you they are canceled or private but, you can still see them and read the comments they leave, or they remain in the friends top 16. I then contact my local officials state and federal and even the state police's internet crimes unit. I eventually stumbled upon a site called Morality in the Media and with their advice have reported over 700 profile users through the obscenitycrimes.org, these are copied to the state attorney generals office also. I finally stumbled across this site and wrote Mrs. Collier with the troubles I have faced and she asked if she could publish the e-mail. I am so glad that someone has taken notice of my fight and I hope that parents will read it and realize how dangerous the world is around us and the potential of these sites. PARENTS, PLEASE KEEP AN EYE ON YOUR CHILD'S INTERNET USE. GOOGLE THEIR NAMES, NICK NAMES, FRIENDS, WHAT EVER YOU CAN THINK OF....YOU MAY SAVE THEIR LIFE....If you do come across any of this no matter what site you are on, report it to the ObscenityCrimes.org. We as parents need to take a stand and make our government see the big picture here. Thanks Jessica. ps if anyone would like more info on how to go about this please let me know.

Ok, maybe this "non-advertising" message has been duplicated throughout the forum enough now. Enough is enough! Thanks,

I'n not advertising this but this is a great program to monitor what your child is doing online, it's completely undetectable and has a very simple user interface and options. This is the link and it's DEFINITELY worth the money to download. http://siterefr01.cybersam.hop.clickbank.net/
