Personally, I'd change my password if I were you. That was plain wrong of her to delete friends on your fb account. She totally violated your privacy; and as a consequence, could seriously affect your relationships with other members of your family. Sounds like she knows how to use/navigate fb pretty well; she should definitely get her own account. I understand your dilemma; I too have struggled my whole life for approval by my parents, and have hurt other people because of my parents' opinions and such. It was even affecting my relationship with my husband (boy do I feel stupid about it now
). I finally got to the point where I realized I am an ADULT, and I need to live my OWN life! If they don't approve, that's really too bad. Their loss, really. They wouldn't have liked it one bit if their own parents constantly interfered in their lives! They're not completely thrilled with me these days; but they still love me and are finally starting to accept my "independence" from them (ugh, that sounds pathetic, I know - I'm 34 years old and married with two kids, for crying out loud!). Hopefully your mother will come to realize that YOU are not the enemy; and that you are capable of making morally responsible decisions regarding your family and friends. I really hope everything works out for you!
