My boy/girl 8 year old twins are bugging me to get an email account. When I laughed and said who are you going to email....they told me a lot of their friends have emails! Is this true??!!
No...no kid email accounts here. I have the same Q&A discussion with my 8-year old but its usually about a cell phone. He's dying for one but I just laugh and ask him who he would call...he doesn't come up with any creative answers for me.
Might be just the "fad" of the moment.
If you decide to go ahead, you could set your twins up with an account they share with you.
That way you can "police" the "traffic" in their messages. (Be sure to tick the "save sent copies" option.)
