Facebook Rules:
- You may only be “friends” with people who are pre-approved by us. That means that you ask before you request a friend or respond to someone else’s request.
- You must be “friends” with us.
- If a friend posts something that is inappropriate, you must un-friend them.
- We must know your password at all times.
- You may only post information that is appropriate for the entire public.
- You may not use any of the applications (games, quizzes, surveys, etc.) without our permission first.
- If you do not follow any of these rules, you will not be able to be on Facebook (and possibly the internet) for a determined amount of time.
It is best to start out with strict supervision and let out the reigns as trust is earned. As teens show that they are responsible and trustworthy they will need less and less supervision. So some of these rules may become unnecessary for older teens.
Movies are rated based on what may be psychologically damaging but no thought has been given to what content may be morally damaging. The public media in general has no moral compass. So rather that going by the ratings we evaluate movies based on the contents that they are rated for.
An example demonstration is to: allow a teenager to watch a movie rated PG 13 for these reasons.
Some Profanity
Some Violence
Some Language
Crude humor
Use caution in allowing a teen to watch a PG 13 movie rated for these reasons.

Adult situations
Questionable for Children
Thematic elements
