To many, the Holidays represent a time of giving, to family, friends, co-workers, neighbors etc. a festive and joyous time. To others it is a difficult and troubling time, not only unable to give, but in need of a helping hand. Little Girls who will go without that Barbie Doll, a little boy with no toy truck, a baby without warm clothing. A family without a hot meal or a warm bed to sleep in. This happens right here in our own community. These are difficult situations, I'm sure with the economy as it is today there will be a much larger need. Where do they go for help? What can the community do? What steps would one need to take if they were in this situation? And what should they expect to encounter?

What are your experiences with MY Space?
Should there be better security measures that not allow under age members?
What do you do in monitoring under age computer users in your household?
