How do I convince my parents to let me have a facebook?

[bernz]

Make a list of this that you will put on facebook, and things that you won't. For example, you should NEVER put personal information as it might be found out by other people and be used against you (fraud, etc.).

Things that you should never put:
- Personal pictures (especially those where we see you throwing up...)
- Real birthdate
- Address
- Personal information about other people than you

Also, you should limit the amount of time you spend on it. It can be very overwhelming, so limit that time.

If you show your parents that you're responsible enough to use it, they should let you.

Good luck!
