Lego.com Rocks
Here in SLO town, there are a lot of kids hooked up by the internet. It's nice because they aren't judged by what they look like or how old they are. They play many on line games. One of them is on the Lego web site. My son is 14 yrs. old, and he likes to build cities and games, traps and secret doors. I find it interesting and like that it keeps his creative mind thinking.
I have noticed if he makes a friend, and the teen lives out of town, it is a way for them to stay in touch and talk to each other.
He has more friends now than he has ever had before. It gives him a way to, "break the ice," when he is among strangers. As soon as he mentions the word Lego, everyone starts talking about different worlds they have seen or made.
I know computers have received allot of negative reactions because of the violence, language, and sexual content, but that has to be the parents fault for allowing them to view it and not putting some limits or controls on the system.
Lego.com is for all ages. It is fun, and I would highly recommend it.
