A death of one&#8217;s own child is something I don&#8217;t think a parent can ever go though unscarred. Yeah, I know, how can I connect one&#8217;s child asking permission to join Bebo and her death. But&#8230;.it&#8217;s me&#8230;I&#8217;m a parent. I will always worry.

<p>My Husband and I have not come close to making a decision regarding this matter. I know our daughter wants to fit in as most of her school friends are on <a href="http://www.bebo.com/c/site/index">Bebo</a> . We are seriously putting in conditions to her joining the way we&#8217;ve put restrictions on her usage of her mobile phone and Macbook.</p>
<p>Ahhh&#8230;one&#8217;s struggle as a parent never ends methinks.</p>
<p>Sigh.</p>
<p>What about you? What are you going to do? Will you let your 11 year old child join a social networking site?</p>
<p>Yay or Nay?</p>

The problem is that it takes foreverto get the TV fixed if there is a problem. We go with a satellite company and find their tech support to be less than efficient.

We&#8217;ve just been too busy to deal with getting it fixed.</p>
<p>The problem is that it takes <em>forever</em>to get the TV fixed if there is a problem. We go with a <a target="_blank" href="http://www.dishnetwork.com">satellite</a> company and find their tech support to be less than efficient. Neither my husband or myself wants to waste two hours or more slowly and methodically checking every plug and cable. My husband spent several hours with them on Saturday and then I finally broke down and called today. We&#8217;d rather go without watching TV than call tech support, what does that say about their customer service?</p>
<p>This time, though, they are just sending me a new receiver because they can&#8217;t figure out what is wrong. It will be here in 3-5 days. What&#8217;s 3-5 days without a TV? It&#8217;s summer rerun season anyway.</p>
<p>Conversely, when we are without a computer, which also happened last weekend, both of our heads were about to explode.</p>
