Should a 12 yr old almost 13 have a Facebook?

[Alena]

I think 13-14 is a good age to get one. You'll be more mature by then, and at 13/14, it's important to keep a balance of social health in your life. Tell your sister to dream on...she's way too young. If she's 12 and already wants a facebook, who knows what she'll do at a later age? Make sure she's really ready for one when you decide to give her one. Can she handle it? Will she still focus on school? Is she responsible enough? And is she even interacting with the right people on there? You have to monitor what she's doing...Or you'll lose her completely. She's got her head way up in the clouds. I'm 13, and plan on getting a Facebook in high school.
