Today, my mom turned off all internet access in our house because she thought I spent too much time on the computer. She later asked me why she couldn't get on Facebook. FML
Oh_So_Klassical tells us more.
OP Here, and I spend up to 3 hours a day on the computer because I take a computer class and all the homework is online and that's why she turned it off. She called our provider and told them to turn it off, since she didn't know how. I didn't find out until I came home and attempted to do my homework, and by that point, my mom was in a fuss about not being able to get on Facebook. And since I'm her daughter, and clearly know nothing, she refused to believe me. My neighbor is the one who finally convinced her the internet was needed for Facebook.

I think you should let her figure this one out on her own.

The world uses the internet. It is mayhem to not be on it at least some time in the day.

I'm curious as to how OP posted this without Internet.

A phone.or a friends computer.

81- Either after her mother realized the Internet was needed for Facebook (shocking, i know) or from a 3G enabled cell phone.

#54 Due to my computer recently being screwed over by tech guys, IE actually runs faster than command prompt. That's good and bad. EDIT::::::::::::::::::::: This should be an FML.

As true as it is, I don't think OP would appreciate you referring to her mother as a "dumbass". No matter what, she is her mother after all.

Unless your mom is Andrea Yates. If no one knows, Google is your friend.

Tell her that cleaning out her part of the registry will remove the block on her account.

Tell her to delete System 32 to make it run faster

Maybe she would try to Google it. Then wonder why Google wasn't working either.

I'm actually surprised she knew how to turn off the Internet.

Awe, parents and technology. Explain this one fully and slowly to her.. Sounds like this is the best way to go.

ha ha, sound like the same shit my mom would do.

Parents now a days, eh? If I were you, I'd tell her that I really had no idea, and let her figure it out on her own. Revenge. Or maybe I'd just act like an adult, and tell her the truth and suggest she turn it back on for the both of you to use.
