    True.

    One thing I've learned from this thread: Everyone's kid is a genius ;)

    Nope!, what I've learnt is that everyone 'thinks' their kid is a genius!

    :rotfl:Absolute rubbish !!!

    Nice try though.....

    I have children twice the age of your "6 year old" and theres no way that they would know how to go onto the internet and make a purchase using a debit card on their own .

    Bet you are just using this excuse to get out of whatever it is you have signed up for !
    erm...next question?
    I'm not bad at golf, I just get better value for money when I take more shots!

    what a clever lad :)
    my grandson sits and plays my iphone better than me, and he's 2, kids are the future...

    tell your lad i need a new telly the next time he's online ;)
  • I just signed up as a female aged 19 on one of them flirting sites. It did not require a card or other to get me full membership as well. If you're male and live in enfiekdjohnstonenderby, male aged 40 I would start to get worried.

    I would also get worried if you allow your child unsupervised, as I know what I am doing, someone at the other end of the wires may not.

    I used to get this on ebay to get out of paying for the goods i've sold, blaming the kids is a great excuse.

    OMG, are you for real?????????

    Only some random person behind a pc screen would make such a remark ! i have you know that my children could teach you a thing or two - manners being one of them !

    My children could work a pc at no age but thats not the point here is it ? The point here is parents supervising their children whilst they are on the pc........it can be a dangerous place you know and kids of 6 years old should not be left to surf the web without the supervision of an adult !

    Not the point at all, OP stated in the first post that they were not asking for parenting advice, of course they should be supervised no one has said that the OP was clever.

    and yes as others have pointed out, make up your mind wont you.:rotfl:

    think you miss read what he said ;)

    needless to say people make up all kind of stupid reasons why they bid on an item and then cannot pay, children, a pet must have bid, ect. ect. it is very annoying for a seller, even though I am not one and dont use ebay.
