What is with kids (12 and younger) having Facebook accounts?

[Solace]

Facebook has a rule requiring you to be 13, but little kids often lie about their age. Seriously, even my little brother has had one since he was like 6 years old. And his friend from school was talking about how he has one too. My neighbor's kid has one and he's like 9. There's no reason a 9 year old needs a Facebook account, plus they could get stalked by a pedophile. They don't even have social lives yet, they are not mature enough for the internet, let alone Facebook, what do you think?

Come on, I'm not mature enough for the internet yet, and nor do I have a social life, but I'm still on facebook. :mrgreen:

Seriously, as long as their parents supervise them, I have no problem with it.

And if their parents don't supervise them?

And if their parents don't supervise them?

Then the parents are stupid, and if the parents aren't watching, then there's not much you can do about it anyway.

Where's the "I don't care what other people's kids do, it's their parents' job to raise them" option?
