To get annoyed my mums constantly presence on Facebook..

[Bee1511]

Please don’t re-post anywhere else.

My mum is glued to her phone and Facebook which is her choice ofc.

I don’t post much other than the odd photo, status update or funny quote or something. I don’t post every day. Immediately after posting something she’s all over it which really isn’t the issue. But it’s her getting involved with absolutely everything.

Once I woke up to about 200 Facebook notifications. She had gone through several years worth of posts and photos from 2008 and liked them all.

For instance, I posted a photo of my daughter. One of the school run mums commented on it. Somebody my mum doesn’t even know and she’s liking and replying to her comment like she’s her best mate. This happens every time I post something and it’s starting to pee me off. Like let me breathe please... let me have my own friends.

My mum has always been over bearing in every single way possible and it’s impossible to talk about.

Like I said I don’t put much on much in social media to be honest. Is it any wonder?

Aibu to be annoyed by this? Or am I just being precious?

It’s just she won’t let me have my own friends or life without interfering and getting involved in everything.

just tell her op, she is your mum, you can be honest.

Just come off Facebook

Thank you all. Sadly she is not the easiest person to talk. Bringing it up would been an argument. She’s also the most argumentative person in the world. I’m the upset and stand stand a fuss 😭

I don’t really want to delete Facebook as it’s a great tool to keep in contact with people. My partners siblings are all travelling and it’s wonderful to keep in contact with them and see what their up to. In a non ott way 🤣 old school friends etc. It’s the only social media platform I’m on. I don’t do twitter, Snapchat and barely ever use instagram.

I think it sounds unnecessarily dramatic to come off Facebook because of this! I would move all family onto a limited group where they don't see anything as the default, and then you can post from time to time to include them.

I can sympathise! My dad is in his 70s, he used to say Facebook is for idiots. Until he joined and realised he could argue with people about politics all day. He's even created his own group for political debate. He loves it but I find it very embarrassing. He also comments on anything I post with some witty remark or the best is saying my kids have said things that they haven't. I absolutely hate it so I've blocked him from seeing my posts now. He's also sent friend requests to many of my fiends and aquaintences
