Should I delete my facebook account?

[Myla]

Ok so I'm 14, and I'm a girl. I've listed reasons why I should keep facebook and reasons why I shouldn't, and I just want as much opinions as possible.

Reasons to keep facebook:
1. It's a good free way to talk to my friends
2. I can see how everyone else is doing
3. I can post vids and pics
4. I get confidence from likes and comments on my pics
5. Some of the best conversations I've had with people were on facebook
6. I can talk to family
7. There are fun games
8. Everyone, even my mum is saying I should keep it

Reasons to delete facebook:
1. I envy girls who get more status/photo likes than me and I compare myself to them
2. I feel embarrassed in a way having facebook (I don't know why)
3. I like being unique and a rebel and having no facebook account these days seems unique and rebellious (to me anyway)
4. I would feel so much better without it
5. It's taking over my life
6. Whenever I post a picture/status I can almost feel people judging me
7. I sometimes have to get to know people I don't really like
8. I feel like it's a "look at me!!" type of thing and I'm the type of person who'd rather say "don't look at me."
9. I'd love to say to people "I don't have facebook."
10. It's just terrible and it's made my life a little worse.
11. I found out a lot of people who were close to me had died on facebook, and it's kind of a reminder sometimes.

honestly, i think just go ahead and delete it. its a fad anyways so everyone will be over it in no time at all

put it on inactive for a while. you wont delete it but it will take you off the servers until you choose to log back in... you can get unaddicted from games and the need of attention ... you will also have time to figure out who you are.. going into high school next year is serious bizz everyone has a click you'll see but figure out who you are and don't be afraid to get judged because there will always be people like that. just figure out you and what you like dont follow others thats what will make you unique being you ^_^ ... and if you decide later you want a Facebook just reactivate it.. its a win win... you go inactive it hides everything you wont exist on fb anymore.. if you want it back just put your email and password and it will boot it all up again. hope this helps

First try deactivating your account for couple of weeks and see if you can live normally without it, it you can go ahead, delete it.

I'd say 5 on your pros is actually a con. Well it's debatable whether or not it's a pro or a con...Wouldn't it be better to have better conversations in real life?

I'd say it doesn't matter if you delete it, keep it but don't use it obsessively. But if you think it's made your life worse...
