You remember the movie “Logan’s Run” or the movie where this leader of a radical group said everyone over 30 should die? Well, I have deceided everyone under 30 should die. Why, because you don’t have any respect for anyone over 30. How the hell do you think you got here. Who are you to tell me I can’t have a profile on “facebook” or “mySpace”. I can do anything I like. I’m old and I like it. While you’re worrying about your prom dress, or pimples on your ass, I’ll be sitting here playing on my computer, and yes honey I can turn it on.

It is interesting how a little twit of a woman who likely is still suckling off of daddy’s money and trying to find the library is addressing social networking. Long before you were a glimer in daddy’s eye people were socially networking. Hell it is likely that is how the two people who concieved you got together. If you had ever attended an adult function such as a Charity dinner, golf at the country club or a Sales and Marketing executives meeting you would grasp this, hell even a quilt social or ice cream social fits the bill. Just becasue you are to insecure to actually socialize in person does not mean that we grwon ups can not both socialize interactively as well as actively.

Personally I would leave age out of it. I’m 23 and my husband and I are expecting our first child after trying for 2 years. My initial response is to get annoyed at the complete and total stupidity, but as I read through it all I see is some twit who obviously has no idea what she’s talking about. Her own ignorance and arrogance crush her credibility before I even have a chance to determine if she has any. Personally, I believe this woman needs to do a little more research about life before she goes off half-assed and making assumptions on something she has clearly demonstrated she knows nothing about. Whether it be life with or without a child.

Childless B, we don’t want to be your friend anyway! I find it a great way to keep up with family. And maybe having us moms on Facebook will prevent our children from putting up pictures they will regret down the line.

Meh. You lost me after the airline post. I didn’t even crack a smile this time. The I’m so fabulous one from last week was lame too. You’ve lost your touch CB!

I’m not sure why Mom Logic posts these?

Online Social Networking is not reserved for the under 20 crowd. Luckily, my children are respectful enough to understand that they need to learn to interact with people of all ages, even when they are online. It’s a lesson that you should learn.

Additionally, I would not request or accept your friendship in my social network, online or otherwise.

honestly…
mom’s shouldn’t get a facebook because there are just tagged pictures of their kids drinking, making out with somone, or incredibly high.
why would a parent want to see that?
my mom has a facebook…and should delete it.

Grow up, not all moms are 50 years old! Seriously, I am 22 and have 2 kids! My myspace and facebook are about reconnecting with old friends! I think that maybe you are a bit jealous that you aren’t a parent, and what a horrible parent you would be!

Am I the only person that sees how impossible this is? How old is the CB that her mother’s friend also has an infant child?? I’m thinking 15 years old, tops, and if that is the case then she should be childless!

Wow, all I can say is I now remember why I hardly bother hanging out with childless friends! What a travesty that such a young woman can judge all those who are older in such a way. Anyway, last I checked, moms were the smartest people on the planet.

I don’t think mothers should be discrimintated against on facebook or myspace at all. What I think CB is,or WAS saying before she completely blew her argument by insulting people, is that no one would want to be friends with their mother on a website like that. My dad has already “threatened” me that he would make an account and friend me, and really, you deal with these people at home, so why would you want to deal with them online too? It’s not an issue of age, it’s just that on facebook, we’re talking to our friends and not being very…subtle or polite, for the most part. I wouldn’t want my parents to be able to read my wall posts or look at my tagged photos (not that any of them are that bad) for strictly privacy reasons only. I do think that parents have every right to make a facebook/myspace account if they want to, but they should try to avoid their kids.

i think there’s a big difference between younger moms who have had their myspace etc. since HS or college, and then other moms like the soccer moms and stuff. and grandmoms.

I think CB is just satire… no need to get your undies in a bunch over these posts!

The outraged moms and older people here are missing the entire point. Of course we have a right to invade Facebook and MySpace and wherever we want. The young woman posting here is clearly going for over-the-top statements to troll for self-righteous, indignant old people and moms who “don’t get it.” There is an old saying on the Internet: Don’t Feed the Troll. If this person’s words truly bother you, I assume you want her to stop posting. If you give her attention, she will continue to post and get your panties in a bunch.

I think it’s all funny. I also think young people should be allowed to have spaces to hang out in that are inhabited by their own age group. Kids should have playgrounds. College kids should have Facebook. Grownups, too, should have more places, online or off, where we can hang out with people our own age. I’m at the age where my peers are either in families, so one has to hang out with kids whether one wants to or not, or are still lurking around at bars with 22-year-olds, where I don’t particularly want to go. It’s frustrating. Let all the age groups have a few places to do their thing on occasion. Why not?
