pros:

-you get to talk to friends by chat

-you can stay in touch with people you met years ago, just by searching their name

-all pictures can be set to be private (only friends can see them)

-all statuses can be set as private as well



cons:

-cyberbullying runs high on facebook, if you choose bad friends

-messages sent by people can be deleted meaning that if something is wrong you may not even have proof

-you may be asked to be friends with someone you don't know and be tempted to say confirm



Convincing your parents

-Tell your parents that you will get facebook email, al your actions on facebook will go right to the email which your parents can check

-tell your parents your user name and password so that they know your making safe decisions

-friend your parents on facebook that way they can see everything you do

yes this gets rid of your privacy but if you want to keep it from your parents are you sure you want to do it in the first place?



Not sure about the new privacy rules but I think it just makes your account less easy to hack



Thtime linene is just a different way to express yourself through facebook.

Your actions are based on time so on the side you have 2012 and all the months then you have 2011 all the months, etc and everything is set up that way. If you get facebook it will just take some exploring the website to really understand how everything works



oh and NEVER EVER EVER give your password to anybody BUT your parents not even your close friends

If you're thinking about getting it- don't.

I was exactly like you, I was desperate to convince my parents, and it was all I could think about.

Trust me, getting facebook is the biggets mistake ever.

When you come up to your exams, it will consume your life. When you would have been revising, you will be on facebook. You'll find yourself checking it constantly for notifications even if you know you don't have any.

People get upset if their pictures aren't liked or commented on. People can post nasty comments.

Also, with the new privacy policy, it is easier than ever for your information and pictures of what you look like to be seen by people you don't know.

Even if you delete your account, facebook keep all your pictures and messages forever.



Trust me on this one!
