My 14 yo stepdaughter (who lives with me) wants to go onto Facebook, all her friends and relatives appear to be on it.
I have been concerned about the obvious things, safety, privacy etc, but have done a bit of reading (and joined Facebook myself to see how it works) and feel both somewhat reassured, but also a little concerned at the way networks can seemingly proliferate and everything and everyone become so interconnected, including people you don't necessarily know! Could I have people's views on this? I am in no way a technophobe, nor do I wish to stunt her social growth in any way, but also want to be careful to do the right thing.
I's be grateful for any insights.
