can my parents control what i post on social media sites?

well i guess legally they're not allowed to controll what you say but as parents they're allowed to set certain rules. i know it may seem strange but they're probably just worried about the image swearing holds especially when its on something like social networking sites when other family members and other people with judgment can see. i know it may seem like the most annoying thing someone could say but i think you should just go along with what your parents say - you dont NEED to swear and it doesn't mean much. also it may be better for you because i dont really swear (just the way i've been raised also) and all my friends (mainly the boys) say that they like it and they respect me a lot more than other people who do swear. so just see it as a positive!
