Parents CAN fix it but there's that "NMK syndrome"* that way too many have.
My kids' computer is in the middle of the diningroom and there will never be one in either bedroom.
This is not to say something might happen after the old folks go to bed, but they are aware that at any time, I will ask them to open their MySpace or Facebook and that I will google their various online names. It also makes it a bit harder to get that private when there's another sibling hanging around waiting their turn on the pc and that's how I like it.
There are signs when a girl is underage-shape of breasts, etc., but they're not conclusive. I have found that the younger the kid, the 'dumber' the nickname. "Sexylittlekitty" is probably 15.
