[quote=Anonymous]I think that there is a huge portion of retired people in their 60s and 70s who have found Facebook and use it as a way to reconnect with their youth and people from it. My mother is 100% one of these people. She is constantly posting (comments on "articles", inspirational quotes, etc...) and she has made it very clear that she connotes likes with friendship. People who like her posts a lot are "good friends" and people who do not like or have stopped liking her posts offend her. It's a combination of not understanding how Facebook works (in people's lives and the way the algorithm shows you some things and not other things) plus a person's desire to reconnect that makes this happen, I think. It's nice that it's there, but sad when it manifests in a way that is not really in tune with reality. [/quote]
