Am I wrong to feel uncomfortable about this? He is v cute and you can't see any of his bits, as he is in a baby bath seat thing. But I still felt a little weird about it being posted on the internet. AIBU to feel this way? Should I voice my feelings to the parents?

Why on earth would it make you feel uncomfortable?

ImperialBlether · 01/04/2012 20:35

Only if you want them to think you're completely barmy.

TattyDevine · 01/04/2012 20:35

How sad. YABU. Sad

There are baby photos of my DDs on my FB, any of my FB friends can see them. Doesn't bother me, or the DDs.

I do think this obsession has gone far too far now.

I see where you are coming from - the "eeeek, if it's on the internet, anyone can see it" sort of thing. However, anyone can see kids on the street/at the swimming pool etc. And what are you worried about? That a pervert will find it?

However, I think YABU and I certainly wouldn't say anything to the parents.

Yeah I guess. How would you feel about embarrassing baby videos of yourself being posted on the internet?

duckdodgers · 01/04/2012 20:43

Why is a baby having fun in a bath "embarrassing"?

toweraboveyou · 01/04/2012 20:43

''Yeah I guess. How would you feel about embarrassing baby videos of yourself being posted on the internet?''

I'd probably jump off a bridge.

If you cannot see his 'bits' then there is nothing to feel uncomfortable about.

Teeb · 01/04/2012 20:43

He is a 1 year old baby.

Having a bath.

How bloody embarrassing is that really?

YABU.

Chubfuddler · 01/04/2012 20:43

Completely unbothered. Why would I be? Babies are lovely. I was a lovely baby. Everyone was. Why would I be embarrassed?

winnybella · 01/04/2012 20:43

Why would they be embarrassing? I don't get that at all.

YABU.

LoopyLoopsIsTentativelyBack · 01/04/2012 20:43

Oh. Was just about to post a video of DD in the bath.Nothing showing, just splashy fun. Is this not OK nowadays?
