You’re trying to protect your mom from online risks, which is admirable. But Facebook’s privacy settings are notoriously confusing. Have you tried setting her account to private and adjusting the audience for her posts? That’s a good first step. For filtering content, you could use the “See First” feature to prioritize posts from trusted friends and pages. As for messages, there’s an option to filter who can send her friend requests and messages. But honestly, Facebook’s controls aren’t perfect. You might want to look into third-party apps or browser extensions for more robust filtering. Have you considered educating your mom about online safety instead of relying solely on tech solutions?
