I don't think the parenting was too bad, based on what I read. You can't monitor every word that enters the kid's airspace at all times.
I also think the article sounds pretty biased against Myspace. The adults who did this could have just as easily done it with notes in the 80's, or false gossip in the 1600's, or whatever. Information disseminates, it's the nature of the beast.
The fault, here, lies with the adults who chose to belittle a depressed little girl to the point that she killed herself because their daughter didn't like her anymore. What bastards.
