Tips for Controlling Your Teen's Facebook Usage:

I thought I knew all the parenting tips for sites like Facebook and MySpace. However Parry Aftab of Wiredsafety.org knows one that I didn't and it's a great tip.

Recognize that your teen can log into Facebook from his or her X-Box, cellphone or from most mobile gaming devices. According to Facebook, more than 65 million active users of the Web site sign on to the social networking site through their mobile devices. That means your teen doesn't have to be sitting in front of his or her laptop or desktop computer to go online.

So keep that in mind parents. If your child can access social sites while not on the computer that means predators can access them as well. Just something to keep in mind.
