How to ask Mom for a a social site (on my conditions)?

So I decided that I wanted a a social site because it would help me keep in touch with friends, share pictures, and even keep in touch with family. And dont worry, I’m not an idiot, I’ll put my profile on private, blahblahblah… I shared a a social site with my friend for a little bit to see what it’s like and it’s a completely safe environment. I’m aware that there are sickos out there, but a social site is what you make it. Well, I want to ask my mom for one for christmas since money’s a little tight… but I dont want her to use it to spy on my friends and spy on everything I do, you know? I’m not a bad kid, but some of my friends smoke pot and stuff… I dont want her to be worried. But yea, my friend that I shared a a social site with asked her mom for one and she said yes. BUT only as long as her mom or another parent was watching everything she does on it. I dont want my mom to do that! what if one of my friends says something stupid you know? I’m thinking about making her get her own so she gets familiar with it and she can see everything I do and stuff. Ahhh, how do I ask her without her getting offensive/defensive and make her not want her to see everything I do?

Answer #1

baaahahahaha true i just despise being told what to do ya feel me? =D

im moving out in feb. and getting an apt with my bf and my dads basically pushing me out the door haha im pretty happy

Answer #2

Just tell her some of what you told us. Tell her you would like one to keep in touch with friends and stuff, also myspace doesnt cost anything. You can set your profile to private, yes she would probably like that, my Mom does. Lol. But yeah just tell your friends to send you a message rather than a comment so only you can read it. Yeah my friends leave the occasional stupid comment, but my Mom doesnt look at my myspace, because she trusts me. But just tell her that you will only allow people you know on there, like from school, or family. Etc…
