I don't post often on FB but my dad does - just this week one about abortion and one about camel toe
WTF dad???
I think I need to unfriend him!

My parents don't use it, but MIL does and I'm friends with her so she can see pics of LO etc. I sometimes have to hide things she shares, but I have to do that with other family and friends too.

Yes, but I have both my father and stepmother hidden so I don't see their posts.
I'm also friends with my mom, MIL/FIL, and pretty much all of the extended family. I rarely post anything but occasional pictures of E, though....most of our family lives in other states, and don't see E much (if at all).

Not anymore! We had a big issue with it so they are both blocked permanently. It is better for our relationship if I can't see the weird crap they post.
papaya / 10343 posts
lol! Yes I am. My inlaws too. I mostly use Facebook as a way to share photos of LO for the grandparents at this point.
watermelon / 14467 posts
I am. They don't put up anything inappropriate, but we did go through a period of time where my mom tagged me in photos she wanted me to see, like pictures of her new haircut. I had to put an end to that.

I was friends with my mom on Facebook, but she died a few years ago and I deactivated her account. My dad isn't on Facebook, so no issue there. I actually have my MIL blocked on Facebook, because she's nuts!

I'm friends with my mom and my in laws (they have a joint account, lol). My MIL shares the occasional racist/ rude thing that alarms my husband.

OMG! Luckily, no, they don't have FB accounts. I don't think they know what FB is.
I am friends with the MIL and FIL. The inlaws and DH's family do have the opposite political views as me so some of them are hidden. I'm sure I'm hidden for some of them.
honeydew / 7230 posts
Yep, my parents, MIL (FIL just uses MIL's account and swears he hates Facebook, ha!), aunts, uncles, etc. I have a few relatives who post really incendiary political and religious stuff so they are blocked so they don't show up in my feed anymore. Other than that, no one posts anything too weird and everyone appreciates the chance to see pics of my LOs on there.
pomegranate / 3779 posts
Yes, both DH and I are friends with my parents and my ILs. None of us post anything particularly inflammatory and mostly use it for pictures of the LOs.
wonderful kiwi / 23653 posts
LOL what?!
I am... My dad never posts and my mom just pictures mostly
cantaloupe / 6869 posts
I am but sometimes I wish I wasn't. My dad comments on EVERYTHING on my FB and IG. Drives me crazy.
wonderful pomelo / 30692 posts
I am. My mom only joined FB to be able to see the pictures of the kids I post. She doesn't really post much herself.
wonderful pea / 17279 posts
When I had a FB account I was friends with my ILs; my parents aren't on FB. My FIL and SMIL would like or comment on pics/posts that includespite DH, which was sweet.
pomegranate / 3904 posts
We both are fb friends with my parents, but only dh is fb friends with his mom. He actually forgot she was on there, but she wrote him an email the other day referencing something he posted, so I guess she actually looks at it sometimes.
We are both fb friends with each other's siblings.

Yes to my parents. But my dad is literally friends with only me (he thinks it's a waste of time, but can download pictures of the boys this way). My mom posts on occasion, and often photos of my LOs, but I can't think of an issue on which I disagree with her, so I'm never annoyed.
My ILs don't have FB, though they occasionally go on my SIL's (she lives at home) to see things I've posted. Mostly I use 23Snaps to share photos with them.
pomelo / 5469 posts
Yes. The only thing they share is their photos...they never update their status.
pomelo / 5220 posts
I'm friends with my mom, MIL and FIL. My dad doesn't have it. My FIL is sooooo annoying on there with the article sharing and the ranting and constantly stealing pictures I post and sharing them to his random people... ugh. I've tried to politely tell him to stop but its useless.
grapefruit / 4089 posts
I'm friends with my mom, who rarely posts, and my dad doesn't have an account. I am also friends with my grandma, lol!
GOLD / wonderful apricot / 22646 posts
Yep my mom doesn't post much and just uses it to view our posts.
persimmon / 1385 posts
Yes. With my mom and MIL. MIL only uses it to see pictures/videos of her grandchildren. And although my mother has an account she likes to proclaim that she "doesn't use facebook," (in a very superior tone, of course) but then proceeds to get annoyed when her friends tell her about how cute her grandson's picture was yesterday and she doesn't know what they're talking about. I just roll my eyes.
PS. I laughed out loud at your dad posting about camel toe.
honeydew / 7504 posts
I was, back when I had an active facebook, and it was totally fine. I was also friends with my ILs and that was not. I closed that account when MIL started tagging herself in my pictures of D. I have a new one and I have like 10 friends, mostly people I worked with in Philly before we moved back to Central PA.
pineapple / 12053 posts
Yep. My dad never posts or logs in really and my mom is pretty benign or posts things to my wall about news. Ha.
nectarine / 2466 posts
My parents don't have fb. I have my MIL and SFIL on my fb but I was getting extremely annoyed as my MIL started sharing every single picture I posted. ( Be it of my kids, or even just a pic of me!) I eventually ended up restricting them so they can't see anything on my page except my profile pics ( which I wish I could restrict as well. ) I want to unfriend them or block them completely, but the very odd time I use it to send my MIL a message.

I have my mom, my dad and my MIL on Facebook. My stepdad and FIL do not have Facebook.
My dad mostly posts easy-going fun things like pictures from events he goes to and such. My MIL doesn't really post anything, only really "likes" stuff and rarely comments. My mom can sometimes occasionally politically-slated stuff (and she and I have very opposing views) but I mostly just ignore it. IMO Facebook is for fun. I don't want to get in to some flame war over Facebook.
cherry / 237 posts
Yes, my mom and my mother in law. MIL never posts anything but my mom comments on everything I do and she sounds like a Hallmark card.
