To Facebook or Not to Facebook?

Honestly, I thought that Facebook was boring.  You get on, see what everyone has been up too, tell them what you have been up too, and then get off.  Facebook helps people stay in contact with other people such as family and friends that you do not see very often.  Another benefit is getting a hold of someone you might not have their phone number, but you are friends with them on Facebook, so you can send them a message.  The main risk on having a Facebook is what you or someone else puts about you.  That can be a picture or what someone tags you in a status, or comment.

I already know what you should and should not put on Facebook, online in general.  I learned that kids that are twelve and under are using Facebook; 7.5 billion to be exact.  Yes, these kids should be careful on what goes on the internet, because there is the “digital footprint” that stays there.  The children ages twelve and under are probably putting certain information that should not be posted online.  That is when the "digital footprint" comes to play.  If they put certain things, that will always be there.
