My private Christian school that I have been attending for 4 years has came up with a new rule.We MUST give them the links to our,blogs,facebooks,and accept them as a friend on Myspace,websites, ect. So they can monitor us 24/7 on what we say,who we're talking to,music,ect. If we don't comply with these rules we can be kicked out.
This is not setting well with me or my mom.Its my PARENTS job to monitor what i do on the Internet not the schools ! What happened to freedom of speech?
oh thats right my school doesn't allow that.
Here is straight from the handbook,The schools name will be X'd out.
