What do you do if your parent makes a facebook and friend requests you?

I'm 19 and at college, and my stepmom just made a facebook and sent me a friend request. They know I drink occasionally (obviously, since I'm in college) but still, I don't want them to see pictures of me drinking and such. I think it's weird for adults to have facebooks anyways. Should I deny her friend request? What's the best way to approach this situation?What do you do if your parent makes a facebook and friend requests you?
I wouldn't add her. I think Parents and their kids, step- or not, should be close but also have their own space for privacy. Obviously Myspace and Face book and such are made for people to keep in contact with their friends, NOT for parents and their kids.What do you do if your parent makes a facebook and friend requests you?
I had the same problem with my mom and all my relatives! They all have facebook now, and I feel like I can't post anything. You can either risk hurting her feelings by denying her request, or come to terms with the fact that she is going to see the pictures. Most likely your stepmom will not be trying to find something bad on your profile anyway. You are an adult, and away at college, so I think she probably has the expectation that you are out having fun!
If you are worried your stepmother may find incriminating photographs and/or information on your Facebook page you have two options: 1) clean up your Facebook and then add your stepmom, or 2) deny your stepmom's friend request. There's not much else you can really do.
Don't accept it. If she asks why just explain that you want to keep college life and home life separate. I have facebook and when people from work send friend requests, I just tell them I don't use it very often so that's why I didn't add them.
are you seriously serious? is it really that huge of a dilemma that you must stop the presses to ask US.


its your stepmom, not ours. so if you do or don't want to be her friend on facebook, isn't that more of a personal problem??
then don't except it. i had a similar problem. if she asks why just say


was that you ? or say i don't go on it anymore. its too addictive. try to avoid the conversation.





OR





accept her and take the pictures off.
Accept her friend request, it would be rude and suspicious not to, but then change your privacy settings so that she can only see parts of your profile. You can fix it to where not everyone can see your pictures or status updates.
You see, this is why Facebook is doomed to failure.





I give it another five years. I already know somebody whose grandmother is on Facebook.





So, to answer your question, I don't know. Sorry. But good luck...
Well yo should accept it because you know better than not drink so just replace ur pics





PS: You won't know if she stays on facebook all the time
ahhhaaa! that's very funny. just say sorry mom, youre not cool enough to join my facebook account. youre mom's weird.
add her.. ur 19 ur already a grown up u do whatever u like she can say anything cuz she wont stop u from doing whatever u like...
that's lame. Deny her. That's a little weird.....
EMBARRASSING! well if it was me say to your step-mum that you don't want to be her friend because its private and that you want to keep home and collage life separate.
