For me Facebook used to really be a tool I’d connect with friends, direct friends I lost touch with throughout the years, friends I grew up with, then came the occasional acquaintance that maybe I’d met twice but didn’t really care to learn about his/her hobbies, then the co-worker on super limited profile and finally the parent. My parent your parents, your best friend’s mom! Its a nightmare, what do to do, accept, reject, keep pending or create a new super duper limited profile with perhaps just my profile pic and favorite groups. not even. Picking any of those options is sure lead to a problem. Akh and its like the topic in the Sob7ieh now ” yee shifit binta la Noha 3al Faycboook ma3 shab” its like they didn’t have enough gossip networks they can now infiltrate our profiles.
Or what about the silly pics they put up, my dad just tagged me in a pic taken at a family event like 8 years ago, ( he bought a darn scanner) I wanted to die, or just delete my account all together, I tell you its just UNNECESSARY, why am I obligated to share my awkward teenage years with 421 friends +my dad’s friends? Or the friend’s mom that you just have to accept or else she’ll ask you when she sees you ” yee lesh ma3miltyly add 3a Facebook.” I wish I could just say ” ya take a hint taunt.”
I’m not the only one who feels so passionately about this, there are groups on Facebook. Bisoux
There is even a blog especially for it http://myparentsjoinedfacebook.com/
