Intersting comments and interesting store. This whole thing if wrong on so many levels. Girl is wrong for lying on myspace; girl is wrong for going out with someone so much older; mother is wrong for not policing daughter on myspace, in dating at 14, and in dating older man. Mother’s parenting skills sadly lacking, mother’s lawsuit is without merit; cant blame Myspace for her lack of supervision of her daughter. The 19 yr old is guilty of stupidity in dating such a young girl, stupid for not checking ID for age no matter what she said, because her Myspace said 15. He is guilty of having sex with a minor, consenting or not. Dont do the crime if you cant do the time. I for one am glad the court threw it out… The court should charge the mother with a frivoulous lawsuit.

Ok dude seriously
Stop blaming myspace for this shit
I have one and I’ve never been in that kinda trouble

Look its noones fault but urs
u shudnt be chatting with a guy who’s that much older then u anyways
Myspace didn’t tell u to add this guy or for him to add u it gave u the option of it
Myspace didn’t tell u to meet up with a 19 year old man even tho ur 14

Think about what u do…myspace is simply an option of u having and it doesn’t force u to do anything u don’t want to

And this is coming from a 14 year old dude named jaden hit me up on myspace! :]

This is crap I don’t think that the man should go to jail for a long time becuase this LIL gurl should not have been on myspace in the first place cuz I’m 17 and my momma didn’t want me to get on myspace so I say that it comes back down to her momma cuz she should have been watchin wat her daughter was doing cuz my momma got parental contols on my computer and remember that I’m 17 and the system sends a email to my mommas email eveytime I go to a diffrent website and if its not appropriate the it blocks it and I can’t get on so they shouldnt be suin nobody cuz they only doing it to get some money cuz this lil girl probably have lied many more times to many other guys but this wat she get for trying to be older and grown up and her momma just need to pay more attention to wat her daughter do instead of how much she can get from myspace for her child lying amd how in the world did the lil girl get to go on the date witout her knowing where she was goin cuz my momma would have asked me every question in the book befo I go ANYWHERE so her momma just doing this for some money that’s all I got to say. MYSPACE ANINT DO NOTHING CUZ THEY WEBSITE SAY THAT THEY R NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR MEETINGS OR EXCHANGING OF NUMBERS SO FIND SOME BODY ELSE TO GET MONEY FROM. SORRY HONEY NOT MYSPACE!!!!!!!!!

stories like this piss me off. its not myspace’s responsiblility to moniter all the communications that goes on between people. people like this need to get a life, take responsibility for their own actions, and stop trying to sue big name companies just to get their goddamn name in print.

Sue,sue, sue, seems that is all some people think about, yeah where was mother when daughter was doing all this on the internet, and daughter should have known better.

It just seems interesting that two of the elements this case hinges on are her claiming to be older, and more particularly, him claiming to be younger.

Part of keeping kids safe online is depending on them to be honest and depending on predators to be honest. And when was the last time either group was known to be honest?

Oh puhleeeeeze! Suing myspace because of this??? It would be like suing the manufacterer of my car if I got drunk & crashed it into someone. I don’t see how they could even sue each other. I don’t think that it’s illegal to lie or misrepresent something unless you’re in court (perjury), signing a legal document, or transacting business.
