I think Facebook can be a great tool for good. I also think as a parent it would be great to sign up and have your children on your friends list. You will be updated constantly on everything that happens to your “friends”. I know a parent that isn’t a member of the church who signed up on facebook. Then one night dad was online and received a message that his 14 year old daughter was “in a relationship” with someone on facebook. Within minutes he was able to talk to his daughter and find out what was going on. It ended up being innocent and was a great opportunity to discuss things with his daughter.

As a bishop, I become “friends” with all the people in my ward so I can see their complete profile. Updates to their profiles are automatically displayed on my home page. I also comment on their pages from time to time. I think it helps the youth to be more appropriate in their comments and pictures to know that the bishop is part of the circle of friends. It also helps them know that I care about them and what’s going on in their lives.

Excellent article! Of course, I wouldn’t be complete without leaving a mention that my book, “I’m on Facebook–Now What???” is a great way to get started. I actually mentioned some of this – as parents, it’s *so* important you follow your kids on these networks! There’s so much you can learn about your kids by doing so. Stay tuned to http://dadomatic.com – I’m going to do a post there on this exact subject.
