Bad parenting Friday: Don't let your kids Kijiji

We recently brought you the case of a 12 year old boy wheeling and dealing with no sense of value or decorum.

Now, a 12 year old who ... well ... I dunno what to say about this:

Wanted: i want a free or cheap

title says it all im a 12 year looking for a computer for free or dirt cheap feel free to email me with anything...

No, the title does NOT say it all. The title doesn't say anything, actually!

guinea pigs (2 males)

HI I AM SELLING MY 2 LONG HARED GUNIEA PIGS APX 1 YEAR OLD THEY ARE VERY CUTE FOR 1 SHORT HARED GUNIEA PIG WILL TRADE FOR 2 HAMPSTERS THEY COME WITH BIG BAG OF HAY, LARGE BAG OF SHAVINGS, BAG OF TIMOTHY HAY, AND HALF BAG OF PELLETS 2 FOOD DISHES WILL SELL the cage CAGE FOR $20 for every thing. i will even throw in some extra veggies

Long hared, hm? If he has "guniea" pigs and "hampsters", one can conclude he knows very little about small rodents, since he can't even spell what he's buying or selling. Oh, not so fast.

Wanted: hampster

i want female that have been breed before i want to start to breed hampsters willing to pay up to $30

Kijiji is full of backyard dog breeders -- now we're going to be faced with pintsized HAMSTER (sorry, hampster) breeders who can't even spell hamster? I thought hamsters were a dime a dozen, or perhaps 15 cents a dozen.

If you don't trust him to handle your hamster, maybe you should just send your kids over. Careful, though -- he might post your phone number on the web:

WANT A CHEAP BABYSITTER???

I AM A MATURE 12 YEAROLD BOY THAT LOVES KIDS AND ANIMALS I ALSO HAVE THE BABYSITTING CORSUE I ALL SO HAVE SOME FERERINCES

When you're searching for someone to guard the life of your babies, watch for these three things:
- do they have a corsue?
- do they have fererinces?
- will they undercut everyone else in terms of price and put pictures of your children on the internet?

Again, moms and dads: be aware of what your kids are doing on the internet. They're not legally allowed to engage in contracts anyway, and they may be selling your family pets and that Xbox you bought them.
