My Friend or Child's Account is Disabled
If your friend's account is disabled, they'll need to submit an appeal using the email address that was connected to their Facebook account. Please bear in mind that we can't release information about an account to anyone but the account holder, and we won't take action on any appeals sent in on behalf of friends..
Your child can submit an appeal using the email address that was connected to their Facebook account. Note that because Facebook members aged 13 and over are considered authorized account holders, we can't give you information about the account or take any action on the account at your request.
WARNING:
There is no guaranteed way to get back an account that was disabled by Facebook. The best you can do is submit an appeal, which only guarantees that Facebook will review your account.
Tips:
If you deactivate your Facebook account and don’t set a recovery date, it can technically remain disabled indefinitely until you log back in.
