I was on here and other forums at the age of 13, but then I feel like the internet was a different place back then, there weren't really shock websites and stuff like porn wasn't so in your face that you could find it easily, whereas now with stuff like Tumblr and Twitter, kids end up seeing really shocking stuff whether they were looking for it or not and I think that's a bad thing... there was no Facebook or Twitter or Tumblr and even stuff like YouTube was in its infacy back in 2004 when I started browsing online... I think maybe 13 was an appropriate age to be checking out the internet unsupervised then but now maybe kids should be watched until they're a little bit older, maybe 14 or 15, I know it's not much of a difference but by then you've probably been introduced to more adult concepts in your daily life anyway so when you do start browsing the internet unsupervised you're not likely to be shocked by something unexpected.
