To put naked pics of your 10 year old DD on FB

[KellyElly]

Was just looking through some holiday pics of my friend and her family on FB and linked are pics of her friends DD (10 years old) naked and being thrown about in the pool by my friends husband and various males friends.

This made me feel really uncomfortable not because I think the men r peadophiles or anything like that but I just don't think a girl that age should be butt naked in this situation. Please tell me if I'm a prude, IBU etx as I hace a young DD (only 3) and this made me feel really uncomfortable.

I have childhood issues that make me feel like this and need to know if its that making me feel this way or if others do too. I don't trust my own judgement on this sort of thing.

It's not acceptable to post nacked pictures of your chid on the web as you are exposing your child to harm, anybody could see pictures of your child and get off on them, would you want that! A job of a parent is to protect your child by posting nacked pictures on Facebook is not, despite what some otherson here who are lacking in common sense might think. Te argument that not everyone are paedophiles and you cannot keep your child wrapped up in cotton wool are rather naive and misguded

Reading back on my posts, the auto correct on I pad is having a field day today

I wouldn't put naked pictures of DD up anywhere, regardless of age tbh. One of two when little in your own album at home is very different.

My DD is 10y and there is no way she'd have her photo naked anyway, and wouldn't be in that kind of situation naked. She will wander round home naked, but not if anyone else is around. She is well on her way down the developemnt stage now and she would not be comfortable with others seeing her naked, other me and her dad.

Yes it's a fact anybody could see those pictures on facebook, friends you added who you dont know that well, friends of friends. Privacy setting on Facebook are hardly watertight. Those pictures can be copied and circulated around, whoever says we are overreacting about nacked pictures on FB are naive and do not know the severity of exposing your child on somewhere where anyone can bays anonymous as tey want

To answer thr posts asking if I'm reporting it to FB I haven't but I did speak to my friend and suggest she tells her friend to take it down which she's going to do. The girls parents aren't together and I'm surprised the mum posted it as I think the dad will go mad if he sees or hears about it. My ex would be annoyed with me for posting that on FB but he would be furious if I let my DD be chucked about naked by grown men at ten.

10 i am surprised fb has not taken them down

If someone wanks over picture of my child on the Internet, how does that harm me or my child?

I can't imagine any child being comfortable in this situation, no matter how well she knows the adults. I'm trying to imagine this situation with DD (who is currently six) and I just really, really can't. Even with her older cousins (who she adores) I just can't imagine she would be happy naked.

And then there are the adults. I can't imagine any of my friends, male or female, being comfortable chucking my naked DD around a swimming pool, as described by the OP. It would just be really odd. And all this is quite apart from the fact that all of the chuckers are male, or perhaps this is my problem/hang up.

The whole thing is beyond weird imo and posting pics of it on FB is utterly bizarre.

flatpackhamster it's time to stop drinking the Kool Aid dear.

ItsAllGoingToBeFine actually no it's not going to be fine if someone wanks over one's child's pictures on the Internet.
Maybe you need a guide to why paedophilia is wrong??

That's a really bizarre attitude itsallgoingtobefine.

Exactly it'sall, what a crazy attitude, just the thought of someone wanking ver images of my child sends shivers down my spine. Yes it oes hrm your child, the images can be copied and circulated to,other paedophiles

ItsAllGoingToBeFine - you're saying that a photograph wanker isn't going to harm your child personally. Partly , I see your point. The fact is, there are people out there who get off on pretty much anything you could think of. None of us can guarantee that (let's say), the hairdresser isn't getting his/her kicks out of cutting our child's hair. If that was the case, we would never know, and our child wouldn't be harmed in the slightest.

However, photographs online are a wider issue than whether the subject is personally affected. The sharing of photos between paedophiles creates a "community" that couldn't have existed (or would have been much more difficult) pre-Internet. It "normalises" the behaviour within that community, as they give each other validation and permission to do it. It isn't just a lone weirdo that we'd be talking about - and the more validated they feel, the more likely they might be to take it further.

Completely agree itsallgoingtobefine

I really don't see what the big deal is about other people seeing pictures of your kids on the internet. Yes, an awful thought that someone might get off seeing your kids on the beach, etc. but how would you know? What you don't know doesn't hurt you.

That kind of worry can just go on and on...

westyorkshire it has been widely understood for ages that access to child pornography creates further demand.

Westyorkshire pictures of kids on FB fine, pictures of caked kids especially nacked 10 year olds not fine, totally wrong

Meant nacked doh stupid autocorrect will throw my iPad out of te wind in a min

Despite what others think, posting nacked pictures of a child on the Internet s violating that child's privacy as the child is a minor and has to be protected, the child as no knowledge and has nt given their permission to it. This would not be acceptable to do this to an adult, why th ell is it acceptable because it's a child

So westyorkshire should I just leave my main door unlocked and let the thieves come in then?
In the same way as helping paedophiles have an eyeful of my child's privates.
Maybe you'd like me to leave my debit card poking out of my pocket to help the light fingered?

Just because Its a child does not mean they are a free for all with no rights to privacy, you respect them as you would an adult.

YANBU, unusual child that is happy to be naked around people at 10.

I think they should have kept them off FB, precisely because it's unusual for a child of 10 to be happily naked around non-related adults. Most of them at that age are much more self-conscious, so presumably there aren't that many photographs of naked 10-yr-old girls out there.
