facebook's terms are for users to be aged 13 and over. They don't have parental controls, only privacy settings with which you can control who has access to your profile.
Facebook does have some, very limited protection for under 18s, so if you lie about your age you risk not having these. When you are the right age, you need to calmly convince your parents that you won't put yourself at risk and won't spend 24/7 on the computer instead of doing your homework. Lose your temper and you've lost the argument! Every parent wants to protect their child from bullies, fraud, computer viruses and worse; it's only natural. So try to see this from their point of view when you ask! Some useful material to share with your parents... they'll show you've done some research! You all should watch/read these: BBC's esafety video: http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsround/13908828 CEOP esafety video for young people in KS2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_o8auwnJtqE esafety advice for parents: http://hildenoaks.co.uk/project/uploaded...carers.pdf facebook privacy settings guide: http://www.hildenoaks.co.uk/suggested-fa...ttings.php |
