Secondly, I sent not a one of them friend requests, I responded to them because I am all ready their frind in "real space", let alone cyber-space. Thirdly, you won't see many minors as my friends. If someone in that age group requests a friendship and I do not know them, it will be rejected.
Does this sort of thing happen? Sadly, you are correct, it does. I trust it is the exception and not the rule. If it is the rule, then we are in a sad state, indeed.

Brother, you are setting yourself up for potential heartache.
Just this past week, one of my best friends on AFF sent one of my sons a friendship request on a social network. My friend did this innocently.
But I have taught my kids to never chat online with adults they are not related to. My son (15) came and told me about the request. I told him he could not accept it.
It's not that I was worried about something bad happening with my friend toward my son.
I was.showing my son a principle. Internet communication can be harmful.
This seems especially true with Everyone's Apostolic.
