[quote=Anonymous]I think it is imperative that parents have access to their middle schooler's accounts. OP, do you have Facebook? If not, get an account. Then have your daughter's account and log into it weekly and observe what's going on among her friends. Tell her you will be doing it. Tell her Facebook is a space, and this access is akin to your entering that space to chaperone as it were. Have strict rules: She must remove anything you deem questionable. You will delete the account if she does anything to thwart your access (like change the password). You will monitor her Facebook time, and if it's excessive, delete the account. And so on. Been there, done that! I was stunned at some of DC's classmates posts and photos. I had to ask DC to remove a photo of DC with a group, they looked like partying zombies. Explain to her how Facebook works, and that anything that she posts can be shared infinitely. (I swear, kids just don't seem to get this basic point!) [/quote]
