My mom wants me to add her on my facebook!!? - NDB - 07-16-2013 09:04 AM
HELP!! I'm 14 and my parents want me to add a family member on my fb accnt. I have to choose between my mom or my older brother. My brother is more nosier, every single thing my mom doesn't know, hes the one who tells her. for example, that 2.0 is a bad GPA, someone should monitor my facebook because people stalk and blah blah and lots of other bull shit. My mom is not good at computer, I taught her how to go around browsing and searching and my brother's fine at computer.I'm going into highschool and having my parents on my fb would be like JAIL!! Should I create another account (It's too much hassle, adding friends and stuff) or just add her.
Disadvantages: Too many but how can i protect my account from my mom because shes the safer bet. I don't want her seeing people I've added or too many posts on my wall. If I hide my whole wall from her or block her from too many things, she'll know it, most probs because of my brother TELLING her.

Here's what you can do. Add her to your current account. Add her to a new list. Go into your privacy settings and hide somethings from her. Don't block everything from her, as you said she'll notice. So, after creating a new list and adding her, you can post whatever you like and while posting, you can choose who that post is going to be visible to. So, every one and then, share some pages and set the privacy to public so she can see it.
Hope it helps.
Good Luck.

Be honest with Mom and tell her you love her but you simply need to have your OWN Space on facebook, just like she needs privacy on certain things herself, if she loves you she will understand.
You have a right to your privacy and as long as you are not doing anything wrong it should not be taken off of you by no-one.
Trust is the Main topic here!!!
