Parents who post pics of their children on Facebook

A friend of mine posted a long rant on her wall. Apparently she was banned for two days after someone reported her for indicent photos of a child. From her post, the pics in question are one of the kid (around 3 years old) nude from behind. The other is one of him in a bathtub from the chest up.
She is furious that she was reported for this and suspended for a few days. While I understand the innocence of these pics, they seem more appropriate for a family photo album, not the internet.
There are so many deviant, sick people who could see those pictures as something else and the thought of some sicko looking at pictures of my child online is enough to make my skin crawl.
She's arguing her right to post these pics, and I just don't agree, regardless of how innocent they are to her.
So what do the parents of the OT do? Post pics of your kids online? Even the "eventually embarrassing" baby photos?
And yes I'm sure the "delete Facebook" comment will be added, but this isn't my issue and I have no problem using Facebook.

You can get suspended from Facebook?
Wait a minute, people get really mad if they are suspended from Facebook?

Even if it is harmless, I am pretty firmly against photos of babies on Facebook solely based on the reason that not a fricking thing is sacred or private anymore and I don't believe that posting photos of your kids on FB could do anything but potentially bring you or them harm. A lot of fricking weirdos out there, if you want to share the photos, email them.

See, the thing is she really isn't one. Her posts are pretty normal. She's an every-day woman raising her child and posting pictures of him. Nothing wrong with that, but the nude/bathtub pics of kids are a bit naïve.

I think it's a bigger deal to post pics of your kids on Tinder.

And maybe more important than that, no one gives a single frick about your child unless you are a family member or close friend.

From her post it looks like she is mad that someone decided to view those pics as indecent and report them to Facebook.

She has to remember that some of those photos they put up on their Facebook could be considered child pron on someone else's computer.
If her Facebook is set to private and one of her friends reported her, she should reconsider those people and address them.

Im not taking sides
However i would like to point out this story as a "pandoras" box of problems when people fail to obey a common sense principle.
And that is....We have only one arse we can control ........our own.
When people start telling other people how to parent .....it violates that common sense. IMO
FWIW i wouldn't do that but i also have no horse in this race

I watched Pollyanna with my kids the other day and the first scene in the movie is a bunch of boys swimming bare arse in the river.
People are freaking puritanical and prudish

I don't have kids, but my kids pictures will not be posted on Facebook. Maybe one or two a year but not picture after picture. We have to keep in mind that the internet is going to be around forever and it's way too easy for people to save shite. I'm sure my future children will thank me when they are 18 and there aren't pictures off their baby arse all over the web.

My only "friends" on FB are family and close friends. Many from out of state. We have an 8 month old. I've posted pics of him. Always clothed. It's easier than a mass email or text. My wife and I have a separate shared stream on our iPhones for every picture we ever take of him. Only a select few actually make it to FB n

Post shot of 2 year old in tub: banned from Facebook.
Post shot of engorged exposed breasts while breast feeding: lauded as a women's rights pioneer.

I have set my own internal deadline for getting off of Facebook as when we start having kids.
