Okay? Facebook lets you create multiple profiles using the same account.

In your example the problem was that someone's mom was reading all of their posts and not that they wanted to use different login information for each profile.

For one thing, I wasn't aware of the Profiles feature (and couldn't figure out how pt create another one even after reading it exists, though I'm sure I just wasn't careful enough reading the settings in-app).

Still, the comment above used both profile and account to refer to the same thing ("create a new profile", "your hobby account") so I'm not even sure which they were suggesting.
