My Mom wants to be my friend on facebook!
My mom is dying to be my friend on facebook and wants to "check what im doing". I have nothing to hide from her, I just dont want to be her friend on facebook. I deserve the right to have my privacy. what should i do/tell her? She complains I always clog up her newsfeed, so I dont know why she wants to be my friend.

As a future parent, if she wanted access to your facebook you'd be kinda obliged to give it to her. Friends, however... Facebook is for networking. I'd just disarm her with "I don't really need to network with you. We live in the same house. I'm on this specifically for my friends, and no offense mom, but you're my mother before you're my friend."
Then again, I'm not exactly the type to shy at making things uncomfortable if it serves my purposes. Being clear is the easiest way to get what you want. Beyond that, no idea what the potential fallout is, so use your best judgment how to approach it.

well tell her that she can make it so she dosnet see your news feed, your able to do that. And if your putting up a status you can make it so certian people are blocked from seeing it. i do that with my extended family so they dont see all the i love you to my boyfriend lol U can make it so that she doesnt see certain things. and just let her know that, if she doesnt want to see it she can delete you or hide your stuff, or just deal with it.

Well, talk to her. Maybe she wants to get close to you, like a daughter-mother relationship.
