They even make new friends. With FB, you can stay in touch with people...but it is almost unrealistic because who REALLY keeps up with all 800 of their friends??? It's impossible.

I also admire that I'm not the only person not allowing my child to have a FB account until they are legally old enough to have one!

I looked for you just a little while ago and wondered if I had done something to cause me to be defriended. :) I understand, and have toyed with the idea of quitting FB also.
