Baby pictures on facebook.

(I guess this is sort of an extra item carried over from the last entry.)

 

I’m grateful to have been born in the era that I was for a variety of reasons. But this is just another one.

I feel sorry for all the babies whose mothers decide to post a billion photos oft them on facebook… buck naked.

I don’t mind looking at your baby on my facebook feed, I really don’t. Congrats, parenthood is an adventure, and rewarding, etc. I get all that, and much respect.

But… uh… would it kill you to make sure your baby is actually wearing something in said photos? It wouldn’t even be THAT bad, if not for the fact that there is a professional watermark on most of them. You have PROFESSIONALS taking photos of naked babies like they’re centerfolds. If it was just you and your digital camera, I could still deal with it just fine.

So… next time you have a baby, and want to take high quality photos, at least give your baby some pants. Please? I’ll thank you. Your offspring will thank you, and sooner than you think, unless you want them to give you death stares whenever you pull them out to show friends, relatives, and prospective significant others. Seriously, are you trying to just blackmail them?

But yes. Please. Think of the children. And my eyes.

Thank you.

YES! THANK YOU!! I have hunted down and BURNED every naked baby picture that was ever taken of me and threatened all my siblings that if they subject any of my nieces or nephews to that kind of humiliation I will hunt my siblings down and beat knots into their dumbasses. *shakes my head* I’m sorry…but what’s the point?! WHY??? Someone please…just tell me WHY?! Why would you ever do that to your child? Why would you possibly think that was a good idea?! I mean…would you like people taking naked pictures of YOU and posting it all over Facebook…? Nah…didn’t think so. If you wouldn’t want your privacy invaded like that, don’t do it to your poor kids. And DON’T give me the whole, “They’re babies…! They don’t care…” Yeah. Well, they won’t stay babies forever, genius… *shakes my head*
