Question : FaceBook is good for Business & users in order to connect with others but the only problem which i have with this service is that, its actually bringing in many kids and children waste their time. My nephew is wasting most of his time on playing games on FaceBook like Farmville, Poker etc and creating multiple accounts just to send gifts to different accounts everyday. Hence, he has also created an account using my office email address and i want to get it closed, can you suggest me on how to delete the FaceBook account completely so that my privacy is secure and no one can find that my FaceBook Profile was every existed.
Solution : First of all i would suggest you to think twice before deleting your account because this is a one time deletion and you wont be able to retrieve any of the data once you have performed this action. If this step is taken mainly to safeguard your Privacy then you can go ahead with this step. The only problem with ‘FaceBook Account Deletion’ is that it’s a Permanent step and no restore option available unlike the Delete Google Mail Account.

That’s good guide on deleting the Facebook account, but why would anyone like to delete the Facebook account? Is it not auto deleted by Facebook system itself?
