I Don’t Want to See Any of That

Me: you have a facebook?
Mom: Yes! I need one, but don’t worry. I don’t want to be friends with you or your brother. I don’t want to see any of that.

My mom is the complete opposite. After my sister unfriended both her and my dad for being “too embarrassing,” my mom re-friended them both by sneaking onto my sister’s account after she’d forgotten to log out one time and sending friend invites to their accounts. This happened just a few days ago, so I don’t know if my sister has noticed yet.

I just got a friend request from my dad the other day which I didn’t have the heart to turn down. It now makes facebooking a delicate balancing act, but I didn’t have the heart to ignore his request.

Helen, explore the privacy settings. I had to delve into them when my freelance colleagues across the country started adding me on Facebook. I have a special group set up called “Industry Contacts” and all friends I put in that group can only see certain photo albums and cannot see my status updates. And they have no idea they can’t see everything.

I have convinced my father that twitter is a much better idea.
