When my son had FB, he friended me.  The agreement has always been that as long as I pay for his toys (phone, computer, etc.), I could request (and be given) access at any time.

It has made him nervous a few times, but all in all what I have seen is somewhat inappropriate, but not overly so.

jclarke,

Case in point.  I posted a semi serious FB question, and all TAN does is talk Nutella and other various food product...  Failed again.

So don't feel like you failed TAN!  It has a mind of it's own.

Do you want to be their "friends"? Is it necessary for your wife to be their "friends". I assume her FB page is more career than personal. If so then the more the merrier and it means nothing. But for someone's personal page ....I'd never friend just one of a couple if I met them both. I might friend the female if we hit it off ....but never just the male.

I try to not over think Facebook evre it fun, and light hearted for me so.......nothing bothers me nor do I pay all that much attention to things there.

I do worry about the day I WILL have to deny my childs friendship!!!

Wow, never thought about that one! 

Right?!?

There is nothing there I want them so see and in all honesty I don't want to be that involved in their life either.

Yeah, there could be things posted by HS/College kids that may be better left a secret to you.

Funny when we were all young and did dtupid things, we did the walk or shame the next day or were like wow that was a "crazy" night.  Now kids do it, post and relive it FOR ALL to see......not bright.

There is a phone app called "snap chat" . You take a pic and then send it and it only shows for a split second on the other end then it's gone from both ends. Um...this is an awful idea. And the kids use it to send inappropriate pics. They think it's okay because it disappears ....I'm sure it's stored somewhere. My daughter uses it a lot to make stupid faces or when she looks awful to send to her friends (I'm sure it's used other ways too....I'm not that naive). She tells me some of the stuff she's been sent. Horrific!!'

Before my children are of that age, we are just going to move to a deserted island/area and have no technology.  My easy solution to keep these sorts of things from worrying me!

The whole phone pic stuff is sort of like poker chips.  It doesn't seem like real money.  It's easy to hit "send" on a phone (yeah, I know frist hand).  But would be people be just as comfortable printing them out and handing them to a person first hand?  Probably not.

I have an agonizing decision.  I got into the Alcatraz lottery and I have till today to sign up for the race or not or I lose my spot.  $400 for an oly-ish race.  Plus travel.  Yikes.

I'm not doing an expensive long race next year, so this could be my "treat" race.  And now I'm saving $500 a month on insurance, so I have the money...  But still.

Hi TAN.  Back from lunch at the taco bus!  They actually make a mean fire roasted green chile salsa.

My son was told he had to have and keep me as a friend on his FB when he signed up a few years ago, mostly so I could keep an eye on things.   There have been a few things that is was like "meh, he is a teenager, chill mom" but nothing too bad.  I am sure in the near future I am going to have to take him off my news feed cause there are things I just don't want to know!

If one sends such things. ....one should make sure they don't care if others see it. And never show your face. I wouldn't trust anyone to keep it to themselves. Even a boyfriend.

I would keep it to myself

My daughters are all very conservative on Facebook. One daughter asked her aunt to untag a picture of her in an Easter bunny costume (full fur body suit not Playboy bunny ears) because it might be unprofessional to her business friends on FB.

Only one person in TAN has ever asked to be my friend.  That person's FB is one of the more entertaining of my friends.

But I crash your computer!!! . My FB page is completely personal and silly. I would never add coworkers or most family that would be offended. I will not sensor for anyone. My mom is on my list but She knows I am off the wall and say inappropriate things. Where do you think I learned it from? No ex boyfriends either. So e people dont get that peek into my every day silliness and life.

It is your mad photo skills and high megapixel content that overwhelm my puny gen 1 Ipad.

I rarely post anything myself.  My daughters post pictures which are the main attraction for me.  Some nieces are funny and put up good stuff too.

I am going to hot yoga tonight, love wearing barely nothing, it is so hot in there that I can barely see, the instructor reminds me of Fabio......he is very hairy!!!

 

The class, mirrors and other yogies remind me how out of shape I am.
