    Here's what Newsbreak user are saying:

    Facebook should sue the parent for allowing the child to be on it so much.... Parents need to take responsibility for their children! --- Sherri Harsh
    Being that Facebook has an age requirement of 13 and she'd been using it since the age if 7, I think her case is instantly invalidated for violation the terms of service. Bad parenting there --- Jager602
    your kid already had issues you chose to ignore & now you need someone to blame because you depended on social media to raise your kud instead of doing it yourself! --- Ka Wilson
    Seriously wondering why this parent feels it's FB fault??? Be a parent. It's your responsibility to monitor what your children are doing! --- Jenny Barger
    Years ago the tv was the babysitter now Facebook. Just get up and take responsibility for the poor decisions you made raising your child. --- ChosenOne

    Umm maybe that’s why they have age requirements? Maybe the parents shouldn’t circumvent them for the child. It’s called accountability. Don’t blame fb for your actions.
