I think this is one of the best way to control the children who can’t control themselves.

Children surfing the internet are being targeted by thousands of websites encouraging them to develop potentially fatal eating disorders. They display pictures of ultra-slim women along with tips on how to starve for days while convincing your parents that you are still eating. Campaigners compare them to prosuicide sites and are calling for them to be shut down.

The video-sharing site YouTube hosts more than 2,500 such examples while the social networking sites such as Facebook, MySpace and Bebo have hundreds more. MySpace, Bebo and Facebook have previously defended their decisions not to censor proanorexic pages.

They have said they work with eating disorder organisations and carry adverts from the National Eating Disorder Association to target sufferers. Now what is your opinion on this?
