WP Article: Making Your Life an Open Facebook
Wonderful article by Lori Aratani of the Washington Post about what happens when kids get friend requests...from their parents.
If you think about it, there's another little bump in the road coming up ahead. Some of the first Facebook users who were in college in 2004 surely are starting families. How will they feel when their offspring start using Facebook? There's a minimum age limit of 13, so they have a few years to think about it. Will it be a rite of passage with Mom and Dad teaching the little tyke how to log on to Facebook? Or will it come as a surprise when the friend request from the tyke arrives in the parental inbox with no prior warning?
