My Mother Is On Facebook

Sat, 24 Sep 2016

This is not a happy time: My mother recently got her own Facebook account. I'm not on Facebook. Or am I? I can just imagine what she might be posting there. Information about the family, including tagging people such as myself in pictures. As a result I'm not on Facebook and yet I end up in Facebook anyway.

It's time to have a conversation with her about all of the problems. She's my mother and I want to respect her wishes even if they're bad but this one seems particuarly bad. She sells out not only herself but also her friends and family by becoming an informant for the state. I never saw that coming.
