ACC 2 : CHILDREN UNDER 17 SHOULD OR SHOULD NOT HAVE FACEBOOK ACCOUNT?

Little Angel

              There are many social networks right now, one of them is Facebook. There are more than 50 million users and most of them are children under 17. There are pro and con about children under 17 should or should not have Facebook account. Many parent claim that Facebook is not a good social network for their children, especially children under 17. But some others said it’s okay if their children have Facebook account but still under their supervision.

                First of all, parent who do not agree that their children especially under 17 have Facebook account said that Facebook brings many bad effects such a case of kidnap by a man through Facebook. They also said using Facebook need much money because it needs to be connected to the internet.

                However, some others said that they give their permission to their children especially under 17 to have Facebook account but still under their supervision. Something bad will never happen as long as they keep watching their children while using Facebook.

                In conclusion, I think children under 17 are allowed to have Facebook account but still under their parent’s supervision. The parents should not give their ‘over’ protect to their children. Just give them some independence but not too much.
