This article was regarding facebook and whether or not mothers in their 50's and up should sign up on facebook to keep in contact with their grown children. The author of this article asked her son that lived in another state and he said he didn't care if that’s what she wanted to do then that’s what she should do.
I find this article pretty interesting because as the article said facebook was once just for college students with an "edu" email address, not anyone could access it. I think they really need to crack down on what age is accessing sites like facebook and myspace. It is kind of ridiculous what age groups are signing up for these sites these days. It is horrible. I also believe that parents should sign up for these kinds of websites. The only reason the children would not want them to be their friend, was if they are doing something wrong. It is even more important for the parents of children ages 15 and below to have an account and access their child's account as well. These are the kind of sites that attract more and more stalkers, rappers, and murders, these days. It is important to keep the young children that don't realize what they are getting there selves into, out of trouble. I wouldn’t have a care in to world if my mother wanted to be my friend on facebook at all, it would be just one more easy way to keep in contact with each other. Would you let your parents be your friends?
