Facebook – Public profile information

facebook-privacyprivacy

How do I stop Facebook naming my mother as a Parent in the "Born" section of my timeline that is viewable to the public?

I don't think I made this information public and I have even updated my profile details and deleted all family members, who apparently I could only see anyway.

Any ideas?

This is probably because your mother mentioned you on her profile?

I would ask her if she could just make it more private, or delete it all together (but for some mothers this can be a tricky subject ;-) ).

Update: If that didn't help, and you are still related on Facebook. I would suggest contacting Facebook. Because Facebook has probably learned that information from you, and it isn't that easy to 'unlearn'. Try the 'Report a problem' button via the settings menu on the top right.
