How do I add new friends to Messenger?

To add a new friend to Yahoo! Messenger, do the one of the following:

• Add the friend with a Permission Slip.
  1. Click Add at the top of the Messenger window.
     This opens a panel where you will tell your parents about this friend.
  2. Type the ID of the person you want to add.
  3. Type a note to your parent about who that person is.
  4. Click Send.
     This sends a Permission Slip to your parent. When they think it's all right for you to have this friend on Yahoo! Messenger, you will receive a message that he or she is now there.
• Get instant approval if your parent can come to the computer
  1. Tell your parent about who that person is.
  2. Click Add at the top of the Messenger window.
