Test for holidays
In its edition of last Sunday (1/11/2009), the newspaper "La Tercera", reports a new social phenomenon. These parents, already well past 40, who register on Facebook to raise their children surprised "to be friends."
The phenomenon has spread so already constituted groups of adolescents close the door to his parents on Facebook. They argue that this is "your space" and not for a father or a mother to propose to their children "be friends" through the PC screen. "It is not my friend, € | is my mom!" Says one of the young respondents.
However, the phenomenon is not limited to the topic of Facebook, as it emerges in many behaviors of the growing number of "neo-teens." According to this news: "The occupation of space by young adults is total, language, clothing, music icons and social networks."
Infant sociologist says "youth, the Clinic Santa Maria, John Paul Westphal:" They have been losing proprietary limits: it is increasingly difficult to identify which is your land and what the young people. "
One may ask whether this universal phenomenon enriches or impoverishes society as a whole.
At first sight, a spirit that enriches surface would then be the age of adolescence where life is presented in its most cheerful, easy and attractive, the fact that many share in this spirit that the society becomes more cheerful and optimistic .
However, those who think and passionately extol the value of diversity in age are acting to reduce behaviors that must be taken in one stage of life.
In fact, diversity "when it is not the result of the absurd, but of nature, as is the case with the various ages of life, with its well-defined features" obviously enriches the whole.
Therefore, a society with a single age, which will gradually confusing children, adults and elderly, is a company that is cutting off the characteristics of human nature as God created it and so can only impoverish.
A society that is no longer the innocent smile of a child or a parent's protective hand, or hear the board full of experience of a grandmother, because everyone, kids, parents and grandparents want to look young, obviously deprived of the beauty of healthy diversity.
In conclusion we propose to conduct a test on this vacation: Analyze the environments they visit and see if they are characterized by the harmonious coexistence of different personalities with their own ways of being and appearing, or whether, on the contrary, reflect a unanimity which all want to look young forever.
And if you are no longer a teenager, you can certainly compare this sad situation with a happy time when they could live with adults, seniors and children without complexes or anxieties € |.

I do not think the same thing in relation to parental involvement on Facebook.
They are worlds apart, the lives of adolescents and ours. Instead, the family is a large and small, siblings, grandparents, uncles and cousins.
We talked every day and not afraid to break the limits. Conversely, without disrespect or lose authority, the act of participating together in the phenomenon of communication, unites and rewards.
Our children you treat us, and friendship is not invading fields, or use your clothes, or look minor, and expressed love the show's good for many people.
We apartemos.Ojalá there are more sites that unite us and not divide us.
