My parents are so strict about facebook?

Hey I bet you feel so grown up - and you almost are! Your parents are showing rightful parental concern, they are worried that you will get somebody "talking " to you that is not who they say they are. You see and hear about this so so often sometimes with tragic consequences.

Under the law you are still a child, there are legal restrictions.. I know you feel a lot of your mates are online and want to chat with them thats understandable. If I were you, without getting into a shouting match with your parents ask them about Facebook and what they are frightened of. Then talk to them asking about their rules about being on the computer and say you want to just contact your mates. I hope you do manage to get to a compromise with your Mum and Dad.
