How to let my parents let me have facebook?

[Lacey]

Why do you have to wait for your dad to mention it again? This is your dad. Ask him again. Tell him what your cousin told you and ask if it's the truth.

One thing I wouldn't do is go behind your dad's back. Your cousin is wrong...he WILL find out about it and when he does, the consequences won't be pretty.

I'm linking an article that you could show your dad. It has some guidelines for kids starting out on the Internet. Read them together and the two of should be able to reach a compromise on what to follow and what to throw away.

One thing I can tell you just from your question: You need to stop sharing personal information. You just told a bunch of strangers about your mom's affair and your parents' divorce. Not cool. So, I would suggest that if dad lets you get Facebook, he check out anything you want to post BEFORE you post it so nothing inappropriate gets out there.
