Facebook's appetite for new users knows no bounds. Not to mention that Facebook already has 900 million active subscribers, but CEO Mark Zuckerberg considers it's time the company lifted its ban on child users (the current minimum age is 13), saying young people can learn from social networking sites.
"Because of the restrictions, we haven't even begun this learning process." Zuckerberg stated. "If they're lifted then we'd start to learn what works. We'd take a lot of precautions to make sure that they (younger kids) are safe." Zuckerberg conceded that allowing kids to join Facebook could draw plenty of criticism but added, "That will be a fight we take on at some point."
What do you think?
Should children use facebook and why is it so important to join the social network at a such young age?
