First, it was just for college students. Then, the parents joined in. Now, high schoolers are on what's probably the most successful social media platform of all time. Ah, Facebook. What would we do without you?

 

 

For those under the age of 13, however, the answer to that is, well, pretty much anything and everything. Until now, the head honchos at FB HQ had refused to even discuss removing the age restrictions on the popular website. According to Mashable.com, however, that stance might be a thing of the past.


Apparently, Facebook is considering opening the site to tweens with profiles that will be linked to their parents’ accounts. Parents would have to approve friends and applications.

 

What do you think of this new development? Tweens, would you use a FB account that was tied to your parents?

I think that this is a sensible idea. It would be safer than regular Facebook and would keep kids that want a Facebook satisfied, while keeping parents happy with the safety of there kids.

NEVER IN MY LIFE! Good think I dont need to link my facebook with my parents... I need person space! But I do admit my whole family has a facebook and we are all friends. But having my parents choose what to do to my facebook? thats just too much!Tong

So this isnt really a big deal to some people but it is to me: my class had a swim party and we were playing truth or dare, a boy got a dare to kiss me and i let him out of peer pressure: that was my first kiss but i really dont want it to count, we are just friends, neither of us like each other its kind of a joke but does it count? I want my first kiss to be with someone i like...

 

Hey Girlie! 

The REAL first kiss is unique because it comes from someone you have special feelings for. A quick kiss from 'just a friend' doesn't mean your true firsty won't be special!
