I totally just went all mom-ish on my 14yr old cousin. He was using profanity on his fb page and it really rubbed me the wrong way. I went off and told him that he might speak that way with his friends but he wouldn't dare speak that way in front of family and he has family that can read all of his posts like that (his grandmother, mother, great aunt, etc). I was nice enough to send it in a private message, but seriously?? Not only that, the spelling was horrible.
What are the facebook no-nos that you have seen lately?
Re: Facebook faux pas
I have an 18-year-old female cousin who has been posting stuff (profanity, pics of her with her girlfriends, etc) that makes me feel a little bit uncomfortable. On her 18th birthday she posted "I'm finally LEGAL!" I mean, I don't mind the profanity....and she probably has her settings so that our grandmother doesn't see those posts. But I worry about the pics of her and her girlfriends looking like sluts, and the "I'm legal!" post made me shudder.
My cousin's 12 year old daughter poses very inappropriately with her friends on her FB. Unfortunately her parents don't care. My aunt (her grandmother) tries to tell her all the time that she shouldn't post things like that, but typical teenager style, just talks back.
I've hidden her so I don't have to see it anymore.
