Glad that you did jump in on this. I was hoping to hear your input. Have either of your daughters ever had to deal with online wierdos with respect to their vlogs?
My daughter wants to start one and asked me to set it up for her. I am a little wary to get one going for her simply because of some of the freaks that are out there. I have had numerous talks with her about people she may encounter online and I do monitor her browsing habits. Thankfully I havent had to deal with any freakish shit...yet.
