Half of Parents Join Facebook to Creep on Their Kids

Are you friends with your parents on Facebook? You might be surprised to find out that one in two parents join Facebook just to keep tabs on their kids. In our increasingly digital world, it is difficult for parents to monitor their children's activities -- so perusing social media is an obvious solution.

To give you more heebie-jeebies, 43% of parents check out their kid's profile daily -- with special interest given to status updates and photos you are tagged in. So you might want to think twice before you tag yourself at that frat party doing a perfect keg-stand.
