First of all, did you know that some adults have a sexual fetish for photos of young girls in braces? They are out there on the web, and they are probably lurking on this site, too.
To protect yourself from these types of internet preditors, I urge you NOT to post personal information or photos of your entire face. Please do not post your address, your real name, your phone number, or give a link to a web site that has this sort of information. Be careful who you email or PM or IM. Less info is always better.
If I see that your website contains such personal information, I will delete the link from your profile.
If you mistakenly put this sort of info in your profile or in a post, you can edit it out, or I can do it for you. I can even delete you as a user and you can start over with a different name.
If someone starts harassing you, please let me know, and please tell your parents or another trusted adult.
Don't secretly meet up with anybody you meet over the internet -- your parents or another trusted adult should know about it.
If you ever have any questions about this site, please email and ask me.
OK, the Mom in me feels better!
