Facebook is an incredible tool to stay in and keep track of our kid's social lives that our parents never had. Generally kids don't want to actively hide most of that stuff, they just aren't very forthcoming with it.
For my parents trying to get anything out of me abut my friends and social life was like pulling teeth. But if they could see it on FB (the g-rated version obviously) I probably wouldn't have minded so much. I just never wanted to sit down with them and talk about it.
Also kids don't realize how much we can figure out from just the g-rated versions of stuff. They don't realize we pulled the exact same shit. Use this to your advantage, but never let on. And don't bug them too much about what they post on facebook, or they'll shut down.
