How to tell my parents I have a facebook?

I have a facebook account but my parents don't know. I've been wanting to tell them but I don't know how. I want to tell them before they find out through someone else. I don't know if they'd let me have one. How do I tell them?How to tell my parents I have a facebook?
Ask them if they would let you have one. if they say no, delete your account. if they say yes, ask them if you can go ahead and get one. if they say sure, then log on to your account, and make it look like you just got it. Be nice, and happy, and hug and compliment your parents alot. ask to do the dishes every day for the next month. be nice, and maybe they will change their minds. BTW, since you have one, you should watch this video;

Just say mom and dad I have a Facebook account and Facebook is a site where people you know are your friends and its a way to talk to them without always being on the phone or when I can't see them in person and you don't have you worry about me meeting strangers on there because I get to approve everyone who asks to be my friend and I only approve people I already know. I hope that works for you and im sure your parents probably won't mind you having one as long as you tell them.
You're smart to let your parents know about it. Just be casual when you tell them. Next time one of them is on the computer (or you're on the computer and they're in the room), say something like ';have you guys seen my Facebook?'; or ';do you want to see my Facebook?'; and show it to them. Be prepared for them to critique it, because that's what parents do, but you should let them know.





And if they do ask you to take it down, ask politely if they could just give you advice on what to take out or change instead.
Just be upfront and honest. Tell them the reasons why you have gotten it (it's a good way to keep in touch with people) and that you are going to be very safe about it. Explain that you have privacy settings so that only friends can view your profile. You may even want to show them your profile, just so they can see that there is nothing on there that they need to be weary about. When I told my mom I got it, I explained how if she ever wanted to see my profile she could just ask and I would show her it. This gave her the peace of mind, and she has never asked to see my profile again. Good luck!
Tell them that you have an account, and then say you're very sorry for not asking them first. Tell you really wanted to have one but you were just afraid they'd say no. Ask them if you can keep it, but tell them that you understand if they want you to delete it! But before you ask if you can keep it, tell them how safe it is and how much you've enjoyed it!





If they do make you delete it, do it. Maybe in time, they'll lighten up :)





i hope it works out for you!!!!
First ask them what they think about facebook profiles and kids having them. If they don't like it, I would recommend deleting it and just telling your friends to forget about it.


If they think it's okay, then just let them know, but they might be a little angry that you didn't tell them in the beginning.
I don't know but try asking if you could have a facebook and if they say yes you don't have to hide it. If they say no just keep doing what your doing now not sharing the fact you have it, unless you feel uncomfortable with hiding it, then you could just delete the account.
You should be thinking instead why did I do this behind their backs? What you are saying is I have it, I'm going to keep it, I don't care but I just want them to know who the boss is here. You're not asking permission, you're telling them the way it is. Not something that should come from a child to their parents.
Just go up to them and be honest with them. The longer you wait they will be madder than if you would of been truth full with them right away. if its already been long do something nice for them first then tell them. Also never try telling them in some weird way like e mailing it to them or something stupid like that. It never works and it just turns them more annoyed. If you want the best results do what i say and hopefully they should understand. But i know what you mean. It can be hard telling you parents things at first. But again if you listen to me everything should turn out okay.





Thanks for reading, Hope it helps!!
well it depends on your age really, if you are too young to have one ( like under 14) then it might be a problem, but if you are in your mid to later teenage years then i really see no reason why it should be an issue, maybe you could do a deal with them where u supply them with your password and they may use it ONLY if they are worried you are accessing something inappropriate ( and not just to snoop)


good luck!
telll that all the positives about it. tell them that you are responsible and know what your doing, your not adding random people you dont know, you only add people you do know. all your pictures are fine, you know everyone your friends with, you can find people from your family and etc. good luck!
Just tell them straight. Facebook is a social networking site so there is no real harm in having it. It's a website where you can keep in touch with friends and family, as long as you keep a good eye on who you're really talking to then Facebook is harmless.
ask if you can make one if they say yes leave it at that ...if they say no say ';ok i have to tell you the truth...I already have an account'; they would rather you tell them instead of them finding out through someone else...trust me this happend to my friend
why wouldnt they let you have one, its not like its full of wierdos like this place, the only people who can contact you is your friends. your parents should prefer you to use facebook over this place. just dont tell them. they wont care anyways.
just say '; hey mum/dad umm well i have facebook and i really want to stay on it as all my friends from my old school (or something like that) are on it and i can keep in touch with them
Show them that you're being responsible for a while and then causually bring up in a conversation ';Mom, Dad I Have a facebook and I thought you should know';
Why would they care that instead of you talking on the phone with your friends or hanging out with them...you're on the internet?


It's like a more entertaining AIM....





Unless you're like %26lt;10....


Then you have no reason to be on facebook...
when they call you, say! '; im on facebook i can't atm!';
why is it a big deal if you have a facebook? every 1 has a facebook, no ones parents care about it.
Just tell them you have it and you will be safe and to understand I guess. There is no way to make it easier, just stand up for yourself.
Guess what. I saved your money instead of getting me a present on birthday, i instead joined a free facebook which is more present to me!
I know you can play Charades, then later you can eat your milk and oreos and have smashing good time..... no just be blunt about it.
Well, if you're not like... 6 years old or lower, I don't see why they should care so much. Me personally. Unless you're posting nude pics. lmfao.
';Mom, Dad - I have a facebook account and I'd like to show it to you';
just tell them that you have it. trust me you won't die. i didn't. it's not too hard to say.
first just ask them if they would let you have 1.... perferably ask whoever you talk to more. prob your mom
';Mom, dad, I have a facebook.';
hey, i have a facebook
go up to them and say ';i have facebook';
Send them a telegram
DON'T TELL THEM. if they confront you about it, say someone else made it in your name because they don't like you.
