What percentage of questions in here do you think are posted by unsupervised children?

And what's wrong with parents that have kids and then don't pay any attention to what they are doing? If you aren't going to be involved with your kids lives, save yourselves and everyone else the grief and don't have them.

    I totally agree, and the percentage has to be crazy.

    Parents today are too busy and self-absorbed to watch over their kids. They have babies, ship them to day-cares and have other people raise them.....work jobs that keep them away from their kids all the time, don't KNOW their own kids because they never have time enough to sit down and get to know them...and then wonder why the kid's are messed up. It is ridiculous.

    I am a stay-at-home mom. My husband and I made and are making HUGE sacrifices (moving to a smaller home, cutting our budget in HALF, rarely ever, ever going out, no vacations for now) so that I could be the one to raise our kids until they go to school. Then, I will probably go back to work, I am a teacher, incidentally.

    I think majority of the questions are posted by unsupervised children for one there parents think let me give them a computer and they will be out of my hair they don't even want to take sometime to spend with there own children. Then they want to blame the computer and everyone else when they get in trouble for example (porn and meeting strangers) when they should be blaming themselves

    I'm 15 and I get on here unsupervised. Alot of people on here are kids and I say that at LEAST 60% are kids. People don't always know their kids are online. I'm online now and none of my parents know that I'm on here. I get on after they go to sleep. Hope that helped

    30%- unless you count me, a college student, I guess I'm unsupervised, but don't be too quick to assume everyone on here is a child. Why would a child go to this type of website instead of the other thousands more related to them?

    That scares the crap out of me...I have two kids and I worry about what they will get themselves into. It's a scary world out there. I'd say 70% are kids on here, but they shouldn't be-there's a lot of innapropriate stuff!

    My guess is more than 60%. Its bad enough the children are here unsupervised, but there is more to consider. There are predators out there. Its about "Do you know who your child is talking to?", and "Do you know who is talking to your child?"

    Who cares if kids post on here? As long as they aren't trying to do something inappropriate.

    AMEN! I'm glad SOMEBODY finally said it.

    If you consider under 18 years old a child, then my guess would be at least 80%.

    I'm glad I'm not in that category. I can stay on here as LONG as I want to. :-D
