My wife's sister just discovered that her 10 year old daughter somehow managed to create her own Netflix and Facebook accounts. What's the most clever, pseudo-innocent thing you've seen a kid do without their parents supervision?
My wife called me up this evening while I was at work to tell me that her sister had walked into her living room today, noticed that there was a movie playing on TV, that the DVD player and DVR were not on, but that the Nintendo Wii was on. When confronted, her daughter told her that she had opened her own Netflix account! She also told her that she had her own Facebook account and lied about her age when she set it up (she claimed to be 25 years old) and she even uploaded a real picture of herself using a Nintendo DSi. I wish I could have seen that (a profile for someone claiming to be 25 with the picture of a 10 year old). My wife and I thought the whole thing was hilarious but her sister freaked out and gave her daughter the whole "the Internet is filled with people who just want to kill you!" speech and closed shit down.
