Why Parents Should Not be Allowed on Facebook

I have decided that parents should not be allowed on Facebook. My Dad is completely cut off. I understand that social networking is for everyone but as an adult I don't think that I should be subject to personal scolding from my Father via Facebook. Number one, I hate being censored in any situation. We live in a country where people have freedom of speech and I am one of those people who like to exercise my freedoms to the fullest extent hence the fact that I am writing a blog. There is nothing that makes me more angry than someone telling me that I can't have something. Its so opressive. So, after this posting I will be deleting my father from my Facebook profile and not adding him back. My profile is set to the strictest form of privacy because I want to be able to post whatever I want and not have to worry about employers see me doing or saying something silly. Parents, its time to cut the cord. Trying to censor your adult children is probably the worst thing you could do. There is so much crap for us to deal with in the world today just consider this a small gift to your children. Or in other words, just get a life of your own.

  1. I was so going to simple comment "fuck" in response to all of that on facebook, but then I was scared your dad would call my dad. Besides my future mother-in-law is on my page! Ha!

    Also, tell you dad that I say fuck all the time on my blog and, not only is it not private, but my mom reads it daily! Okay, don't actually tell him that...I am still scared he will really call my dad.

  2. Parents, we should not stack our grown children on Facebook! I am on it to see what my friends of long standing are all up to! And to see my precious grandchildren's pictures and to try to stay up with the times! It is important not to get old even if we ARE old! Old is a state of mind in many ways........come on Dad,,,,,,,,,,we can't do that or we will miss out on all the fun.
