Rant-ish
26 yr old daughter complained in the recent past when I'd 'friended' + posted to her friends, my new acquaintances, on FB. She's in NJ near Philly, went to college there, just married there, living there 7+ years. So I've met her jersey friends. Also, of course, have friends + acquaintances when family was together here, around DC, school friends of hers, + families.
She asked me recently to not post to her friends, it somehow embarrassed her, damned if I know how, DUers may know I'm not exactly a flamer, socially 'weird,' etc. But I agreed to not post to her friends, haven't communicated w her jersey friends, but have, on occasion, said 'hi' to mutual, 'old' DC friends, including today, when high school classmate of hers, whom I've known, as well as whose family I've known, for 10+ years, posted that her mother's new car was broken into. I said, 'Sorry.' (I've also posted to this friend, about her graduate school education, what she's been doing, etc, as we parents tend to follow our kids friends, to encourage their endeavors.)
SO, heard from daughter via texts a while ago, 'Why are you contacting my friends, embarrasses me, want to make me cry?'
I tried to respond gently, and haven't said all the things I'd like to say, but is any of this plain old 'lunacy?'
Trying to take a few breaths, but really bothers me; I think its RUDE and manipulative. Why???
Thanks
