One of my daughter's (h.s. sophomore) guy friends, not her boyfriend, just friended me on the FB.

So you actually accepted the friend request?  Unless you're the local meth dealer I'd be denying that request.

Actually you can.

 Amen

 

Well, I guess I can see wanting to keep tabs on the daughters guy friends but I have a strict over 18 policy on FB friends.  Even my neices and nephews.  I can't control what people post on my wall.

I do as well. My daughter is 16 and I've had to tell a couple of her friends that I don't accept friend requests from those under 18. My wife is friends with some of them though. 

I never want to be seen as the creepy old dOOd.

I don't get how it even has the appearance of impropriety.  

What FSocks said. I just don't see the need for older guys to be FB friends with high school girls. I know I don't want my 16 year old "friending" older guys/dads. 

 

Plus in this day and age, one little innocuous comment or picture taken the wrong way and you're fucked. Figuratively.

I am friends with one of son #2's female friends. She's probably 17 or so, and sent me the request so I just accepted. I have zero interaction with her, though I did take some prom pictures of her (as part of a group of my sons' friends) and tagged her in them when I posted them. But I would never interact with her in any direct way...I agree that the threat of the creep factor is high.
