[quote=Anonymous]So 7 year old DD spent Saturday at MIL's house and we met up with them for Easter Sunday morning.   Saturday night, DH and I both received a friend request from our daughter and after opening up facebook, DH saw that his mom posted a status update along the lines of "Love spoiling Larla whenever she's here.  Pizza, ice cream, and a new facebook page!!".  DH and I had discussed not allowing her to have a page, even though some of her friends do.  It never ocurred to me that we'd have to tell our parents not to set up a page.  I didn't want to make a scene at Easter yesterday, but DH and I spoke to DD this afternoon when she got home from school (DH is a consultant with flex hours and I work 6-3).  Of course DD flipped out on us when we reminded her about the no fb page rule.  Of course she flipped out, said we were mean, worst parents in the world, ruining her life, etc. etc. etc.  Now DH thinks that maybe she can keep her page and he can set up some monitoring devices on her computer.  He is an IT consultant so could def. figure out how to put in some key logging software or something.

DH kind of wants to let it go with his mom since we didn't tell her that DD couldn't have a FB page.  I know i'm overreacting a bit, but I am PISSED that she set this up (put up a picture and taught her how to find people and friend them) without asking us first.

Just needed to vent.  Thanks.  [/quote]
