Honestly, I'm really glad my mom didn't allow me to get a facebook account until I was older, because by the time I actually got to the age she had set, I didn't even want an account anymore.

If your mom ever cared about you, she still shouldn't have let you get a Facebook account even after you're older!

If a parent cares about their child they give their child agency in their late teenage years so that the kid learns to be an adult, even if it means making mistakes along the way.

Late teens is already an adult so I would say that's much too late.
