[QUOTE="Tanya M, post: 648151, member: 18516"] You might want to limit what you view on social media and also what you allow him to see. I am "friends" with my son on FB as that is his only way to communicate with me. He's to irresponsible to have a phone but manages to hold onto his Kindle and access free WIFI. He cannot see anything I post on my FB page and even when I do post stuff it's of a very general nature. The reason I do this is a few years ago my son started posting some very ugly stuff on my wall, it got to the point I had to block him and he was blocked for almost 2 years. He sent me a friend request about 6 months ago and I accepted but as I said, I have my security settings set to where he cannot see anything I post. Basically the only way he can communicate with me is via private message. Boundaries!! I also know that if I look at his FB page that I might see things I don't want to see which will stir up feelings that I don't want to have. We have to power at our fingertips to not look. I suggest you limit it. We don't want them to draw us into their life's dramas so we need to not invite ourselves by looking at their postings. [/QUOTE]
