There are many advantages of allowing a child to have a Facebook account. For one, it encourages them to practice writing and reading skills.

Unfortunately we cannot watch out for our kids all the time. Besides, we all need an outlet. Someone to vent to, talk things over with and get advice from. In my opinion, it's too much information. It's nice to know what's going on, but we can't change everything about our children. They are developing their own personalities, opinions, morals and values, just as we did. Give them that space to do so.
