Obama girls not on facebook

I don't think I'd let my daughters have a FB page either, even if you set up the best security/privacy/etc. I'm with Michelle on this one. Maybe once he's out of office, but not now. And I think at least one of the girls is a little too young. I kind of worry about kids being on FB. I might not let my own kids get on until they're 18...and moved out of the house?

i think it would depend on how mature and how old these children are. i think each individual has a different take on this and if their children knows how to properly react to this (or not), i think it is ok. maybe they can only have "real" friends on their list as well as family. they do not need to add "strangers" to their accounts.

I think I would do that same. Even ordinary kids get bullied online, I think her kids will be a more obvious target, if they can't get to the dad, they will target the kids. Besides, I think they are too young for facebook anyway

She probably keeps them isolated from alot just because of the amount of negative they'd see about their dad. Good for her. One thing being done right in the White House anyway.

If I were she, I'd tell the truth about her/their illegal actions and then the invective and rhetoric would come to a just end.

I admire Michelle Obama's low-key.She ,as first lady,doesn't get dizzy with that and isn't swollen with arrogance.

Oh if you are a mother... I think even if you are not michelle obama you will of course protect your children and of course it is the right thing to not allow your children to have access.to sites that is not child friendly.

Yes I would certainly do the same. However after seeing the interview with Michelle Obama this morning on the Today Show I am sure she knows how to prepare her daughters for all the negativity in politics. She quoted how well past presidential daughters had turned out and she intends for her girls to be the same.

I'm with her on that one. First off, I think they're too young, and second they would get harassed by some rude and nasty people. I'm sure it wouldn't be as bad as Sarah Palin's daughters get, but it would still be pretty awful and traumatic for such young children.

Well that is one way to put it out there, however, there is another side to this.......I'm sure the secret service would deem it a nightmare, a danger, and a threat to not only the girls but to the President as well. As for children being on facebook, it all depends on their age, if it is set to private and I think its important that the parents be on their friends list or have access to it.

Yep, certainly a smart move. I have to agree, I don't think Facebook is for young kids. My oldest is on there but rarely signs on to his page. I won't let the younger kids on yet.
