<P>Woman, 104, forced to lie about age on Facebook
[February 23 2013]

<P>Facebook is apologising for a problem that makes a 104-year-old Michigan woman lie about her age on the social media website.

<P>Marguerite Joseph’s granddaughter said, Facebook won’t let Joseph list her real age.

<P>Gail Marlow said when she tries in putting her grandmother’s birth year as 1908, Facebook changes it to 1928. So for the past two years, the Grosse Pointe Shores centenarian has remained 99 online, anyway.

<P>Joseph is legally blind and can’t hear well, but Marlow reads and responds to all her Facebook messages.
