1.) up and coming users have almost been conditioned to desire "inverted privacy" - location services broadcast where we are and presumably what we're doing, and the up-and-comings are going to have to be taught the value of keeping that information private.
2.) Let's replace his statement of "what? you don't have a facebook?" with someone not having a telephone and see how people in their 50's would react. Heck, go back in time and say that to virtually anybody on the street 25 years ago, regardless of age. Odds are, they'd all say "what? you don't have a telephone?". Facebook is an extremely common method of communication. When people are in a substantial minority in the perception of the other party, it will come as a surprise. This has nothing to do with Facebook.
3.) Teens will resist when ADULTS tell them to do stuff. Teens will, however, cave rather easily when other teens encourage them to do something. It's called peer pressure, and there's a huge difference between the two of them.
