[quote=Anonymous]Under most circumstances I would agree that a child's (anyone under the age of 18 for this topic) privacy should be respected - no reading a diary, listening to phone calls etc. 
However, in todays world, where information about a child can be made avaible to vast numbers of people with or without permission, requires guidance and supervision by parents.  Growing up today is not like it was when we were growing up, we did not have to worry about pictures of indescretions being taken and passed around school.  Its a reality and no offense to most teenagers but they do not have any idea about how conduct today may effect their life 5, 10  or 15 years later...Facebook is not a private a forum where a child should assume his or her parents will not snoop - that is telephone call, diary and perhaps notes and letters they may share with their friends.  It is a parents responibility to guide their children through the different stages of their life, perhaps the hardest is the teenage years, and their their utmost to prtoect their childs reputation and safety.[/quote]
