-_- jeez mom. Leave me alone.

[Jagster]

Ok, so, I have a myspace and a facebook. Guess which person is my friend on both of them? Yeah, my mom. "Oh what's so bad with that?" I'll tell you what's bad with that. Every time I do something on facebook, she knows about it. I joined a group called "mom, I could be dying and you're not picking up." ... She knew of that and complained to me making it think of her as a shitty mom. Which she really is. ... I can't take her off my friends list for either of them because she'll continuously question me of why I did such a thing. My reason is always good for that, but I never want to know the outcome of it. Seriously though. I don't have one social networking site that my mom doesn't have to be my friend. She's completely ruining my life! -_-

[DrkZ90]

unfriend her on both? if she asks, tell her you don't know how it happened

or the easy one: make a second account and make that your main account, while letting the other one slowly "die"

I think having the second account will be easier, and keep her out of your business.

Good luck if you do go along with it. I'm here if you need any help with that or anything else, cheers.

[Jagster]

What if she finds the second one?

[Jufjufjuf]

What if she finds the second one?

New security settings on facebook allow you to control content that certain people see. Just make it so she can't see anything but she is still your "friend".

[SlightlySane]

Honestly I believe your complaint to be a bit extreme. What you put on the internet can eventually been seen by pretty much anyone. I have a facebook with both my parents on there. They are on there partially because I love them very much and for my own protection. She is more than likely just making sure you aren't getting into any trouble on those sites. I can't imagine that her adding you on a social networking site can make her a "shitty mom"

In all honesty there shouldn't be anything on your profiles that she shouldn't see. I applaud her for taking the effort to make sure you are safe. You may not appreciate it now, but I really don't think that she is ruining your life by doing this.

[HillBillyWilly]

Maybe you could just talk to her and say that you think she's being a little obsessive, im sure she'll listen

[ShatteredWings]

Why are moms on facebook to begin with?

Delete the account, tell her you got tired of FB
in a few weeks create a new one with a different name.

Hmmm I had the same problem with my mum, I just made a new account and edited security settings..you could try that as it has been suggested

Agreed, parents shouldn't be on facebook-it's just weird :P

[Jenna.]

I would just make a second one that she doesn't know about. And I agree with a couple people before who have said this...parents shouldn't be on facebook. It's creepy.

[SlightlySane]

I have to disagree about parents being on facebook, while it may seem weird to you it is safe. Plus they have every bit a right to it that we do. They can connect to people that haven't seen in many many years.

There are so many people that can get to you even without you really telling them about yourself from those sites. It is in your best interest to have your parents know who might be talking to you so they know who could possibly pose a threat. I've seen way to many people even in my own area disappear because they made one mistake on these sites that could have been prevented had a parents monitered them.

[Sage]

Make a new name for yourself!

[Iron Man]

Try Twitter. It sucks ass but it might be last resort. Or you could create alternate profiles that she doesn't know about.

[Cloud]

how does your parents having you on an internet site ruin your life, couldve sworn real life was real life not facebook life.
so what to do, stop whining and get over it since it aint all to big of a deal other than your just crying over spilt milk
or unfriend her and just refuse to add her again and set your profiles to friends only, i did she just tried to add me again and then when i ignored it she just gave up, but that may well be to my mum knowing how much she pisses me off

Just block her on FB but say you got hacked or something. Or just sit down with her and tell her that you want to have your privacy respected on FB and Myspace. This happened to me, it's fucking annoying but she should take the hint soon enough.

[BUENA]

Your mom is just making sure your safe. don't take her actions so personaly, its not like she is out there to put you down.

[Hatsune Miku]

You could make it so it blocks her from everything, but shes still on your friends list

[INFERNO]

It's not a terrible problem at all. Your mother is obviously concerned for your well-being and perhaps suspects you were not being truthful to her before or fears it could harm you, so she joined your facebook and myspace accounts. Either way, it shows she is concerned and perhaps try talking to her person-to-person about how things are going in your life as she is concerned. Making another account is pretty much the same thing as being short with your parents, fighting for independence and rebellion. It may do nothing at all but get her to be concerned even more if she finds out but as long as you do not tell her or someone else does not tell her, she will not know unless you make it incredibly obvious.

Ruining your life is nonsense because that is not her intention and her knowing what you say on two networking sites hardly is invading your privacy when you let her. I think she is being a good mother in that she is concerned for you but may or may not know how to mother. Help her out, don't shut her out.

[RockstarRocks]

Do u spend enough time with her maybe she just wants to hang out with u more and she doesnt no what to do to do that just tell her how u feel that u dont want her on there because she says things and stuff or u could leave her on there she is ur mom just tell her to slack it down a little u no not wright things or stuff like that because it embarrises u or tell her u want her off and spend more time with her i bet shell like that better anyways hope i helped

[PatrickZii]

I wouldn't want to be friends with my mom online. I understand being protective, but I feel like I need to have time and space without her too.

Tough break, shouldn't have accepted her in the first place. Can you put her to only view a limited profile?

[Kahn]

Your mother is only doing this to protect you. As for myself I have encountered this family problem before.

In the 6th grade I had been dating this girl for quite a long time. Sadly we broke up, and I began posting immature things across my profile calling her a whore, nobody likes her, etc. Well without me knowing my Aunt had told my Mom that she sensed something was wrong. My Mom confronted me and I became overwhelmed with anger. Me and my aunt didn't speak for weeks (Which is unusual). I blocked her, and everything. What I learned is that I was the one in the wrong. I shouldn't have done anything like that and that I was the problem. She was there to look after me, and her intention helped me learn in the end.

If it bothers you enough then talk to her about it. You two should have a discussion anyway if it really bothers you. You shouldn't have anything to hide on a social networking site anyway.

Hope this helps.
