While I agree with Carla, and have no issues with my wife, who is 100% supportive no matter what, Facebook still poses a difficult family problem for me. Which, as my 70th birthday rolls past, I've finally decided to ignore. The problem arises because I'm socially out, friends take photos at parties and dinners, I'm in the photo and it's on their FB page. If they tag me with my real name, as often happens, my teenage grandchildren see the photo in their FB feeds. As do old colleagues and business friends, to whom I'm mostly not out except for scurrilous rumors that are so old nobody cares. I used to chase these photos down and remove the name tags, but after this past weekend, when a half-dozen friends posted shots from my birthday party (me in my long Chinese-style dress), I finally gave up. The teenagers and their parents (my grown children) will just have to cope. I'm visiting them all this coming week, we'll see if anybody says anything.
