Facebook For Parents

When should you let your children sign up for Facebook? At what age should teachers allow students to use Facebook in the classroom? Even though Facebook has a 'no one under 13 rule,' these questions drove Anne Collier and Larry Migid to create a free resource called The Parents' Guide to Facebook. It outlines the do's and don'ts from a parent and teacher perspective from the ground up. If you've not used Facebook or use it and want to update the privacy settings to fit your children, this will guide you.

Kevin Hodgson wrote a full article on Instructify.com to discuss the two important questions above. So if you're not sure about Facebook and your soon-to-be teenage child, this may be the resource to read.
