If you don't have a FB account you are socially awkward?

WOW the previous generation must have been all nerds or something.

Dude, these kids. We didn't have the internet either :)
 
My children aren't 13 yet, so they are too young to legally have a Facebook account, but once they are old enough, I would allow them to sign up with the understanding in advance that both their mother and I would have the password so we can check what is going on at any time... that would end once they go to college at age 18... we wouldn't be spying on them, it would be 'recon' because they would know that we would be doing this... and our computer is in a family room (not in bedrooms) so everything anyone in the family does on the computer (at home, anyway) is open to the rest of the family...

I agree and no computers were allowed in the bedrooms until my kids were 18.

I agree with this. I wont be letting my children on the internet completely unsupervised until they are legally adults.
 
They have no interest. They have other outlets and the FB/MySpace thing is absurd.

They have no interest because their Daddy feels it absurd or they really have no interest? How old are they?
 
My kid wouldnt have ANY access to the internet unless she/he was in front of me. Not till she was 18.

Then you are asking for a wolrd of trouble when they turn 18 and get FREE! haha.. And let me tell ya kids have ways and will get on the net at school:2razz:
