Kids whose parents have facebook and/or myspace.

Thank god my parents don't do that. But I know a lot of my friends from high school who do! When I think of that, I go "Ewwuah".

Well, they ARE social networking sites. I know grad students and professors who have facebook, because it was designed for networking. So, it's not that big of a shock, really.

Isn't it embarrassing enough to have a MySpace?

Teachers and parents with Facebooks or Myspace? It's not that scary...weird though. My math teacher has a Facebook and the world doesn't need to that fro she calls hair.

My boss onced friend requested me but I just left it pending as though I haven't logged into facebook anymore. My college network is something he's not a part of thank god so he can't view my profile. I don't have anything bad, but I'm 21 and I'd like my privacy.

lol same. My aunt used to think Myspace was just a site for sex.

She demanded I show her my myspace once.

Teachers have had Facebook access since the site started. Parents could only get in after the "no network" floodgates were opened.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

My parents don't really understand computers. Nothing to hide really, unless they're going through my iLike profile. They'd probably freak if they knew I listened to a band called "Killswitch Engage"

The No Network dealie, as well as the town networks ruined what was supposed to be a safe haven for high school and college communities. It used to be you had to be invited by someone in the group to let you in or have a college e-mail to have a facebook account. I was one of the first in my school.

A safe-haven. Haha. I don't see what your huge problem is with adults on Facebook. If you don't want to have them as a friend, don't add them.

I don't keep my myspace from my mom, hell, cause I have nothing to hide.

Except I always have to delete my Last.Fm from my sig on a forum I go to, I think she would flip out on me if she knew I was listening to groups like N.W.A. and Ludacris ( I dunno why, she hates Luda so much )

My dad has a Myspace. He uses it to keep in touch with family. I have one, but I haven't logged on in forever.
