    Post on DC FB Page

    When you post on your daycare facebook page wishing everyone a happy Thanksgiving and that you appreciate all of your families and you can see that 13 people read it and only one person "liked" it.

    I loathe FB so much. I have an account but hardly ever look at it. Don't put much into it, I never check likes either. Maybe people are too busy?

      Don't put any stock in fb posts and likes. People are weird!

        I don’t understand the point of liking a post. :confused:

        If I agree with someone’s point of view, I guess I would say that agree but if I “like” it, I don’t see the benefit to myself or the poster (other than knowing we agree... !)

        In all honesty I see even less sense in liking a post that wishes others Happy (whatever the occasion)!

        I don’t mean this rudely to you (or anyone else) but to me “likes” are a form of validation and I see no sense in validating a good tiding kwim?

        I don’t know, I probably have a very different view of FB “etiquette” than others do but I will admit, I do not understand a lot of it....

        I’m sorry you didn’t receive the responses you were hoping for though. :hug:

          To me a “like” is both an agreement and an acknowledgment. So if someone posted “baby girl arrived 7am this morning” I would hit “like” as an acknowledgement. If someone said “I hate Christmas traffic” I would hit “like” in agreement.

          Either way I think it is rude to not acknowledge that someone said something. If I went into a room and said “Happy Thanksgiving everyone” and everyone looked at me and then returned to doing whatever they were doing wouldn’t that be rude? I think so!

              This was my thought. I just thought it was rude not to say Happy Thanksgiving back or something similar.

                are you sure that the all 13 people who have read your post are your customers?

                  Yea, it's a private FB page and it says "seen by" and their names.

                    Oh lord. If this is expected I am the rudest person alive. It's facebook, it's not like you actually told the individual and they didn't respond. Personally if I expected each individual to provide some type of response I would have said "Happy Thanksgiving" to each individual.

                      I made the same post on our daycare fb page, only two responded. But honestly, it did not bother me. But I do have to say I love on the private fb page that it shows who has seen my post. I'm just waiting for the day a DCP says, "oh I had no idea......" and I can say, well it was in the newsletter as well as on our fb page, I see that you did see that post.

                        Oh, I definitely wouldn't read anything into it if I were you. I rarely "like" or respond to anything on FB. I mainly use Facebook for marketing my childcare. That and the childcare group chat. All my friends do the birthdays and the "hashtag blessed" stuff I rarely reply to much of it. Unless something is actually really amusing or interesting. I would have to reply to 20 or more "Happy Thanksgiving" posts if I were to reply to them. It just seems silly. Because then the next day it's 20 "Black Friday, Everyone!" And then it's everyone's "I'm Thankful for..." And then it's "Small Business Saturday" and then it's "Cyber Monday" by then it's someone else's birthday and the next day it's "HAPPY NEW YEAR!" and on and on day after day I just cruise through.

                          I’m glad I’m not the only one who loathes Facebook. I used to have an account and almost never posted there but a few months ago I deleted my page. I got tired of seeing all my friends posting silly selfies and telling me what they ate for dinner.

                            You mean...you don't care if a friend several states away ate a burger? But...what if they cooked it themselves? What if they were at a restaurant? Don't you NEED to KNOW?:confused::confused::confused:::
