Sorry a fb one. Someone I knew from years ago has just posted about 6 photos of herself in the bath with her niece and nephew. Kids are 3&4 ish. One has the little boy standing up so you can see stuff.
I'm not sure how private her profile is so I've reported the pics. I'm not overreacting am I? I'd never put bath time photos of children up on the internet Confused

It just seems like such an odd thing to do.

I don't think you are overreacting. I think people forget its not a safe little photo album on the coffee table sometimes!

MillyStar · 30/11/2013 21:08

YANBU I completely agree!

Hate these type of pics it's just weird

Tee2072 · 30/11/2013 21:09

FFS So what?

Yes, you're overreacting. It's a naked child. Do you never see naked children running around your park or at the beach? What's the difference?

You have reported the pics? It didn't occur to you to send her a message instead - or you know, mind your own business.

bundaberg · 30/11/2013 21:12

yabu... they're her photos and up to her what she posts online

FlipFlippingFlippers · 30/11/2013 21:13

Agrees with Tee

KerwhizzedMyself · 30/11/2013 21:16

Naked kids on a beach. Naked pictures online. There is a difference?

Tee2072 · 30/11/2013 21:16

Thank god there are normal people on MN after all.

I was beginning to think the place was nothing but PO.

Kyrptonite · 30/11/2013 21:17

She's naked as well. And sending a message would result in a barrage of abuse as seen yesterday when someone reported something.

Isn't it exhausting to be on the lookout for things you find offensive and worrisome all the time?

Kyrptonite · 30/11/2013 21:19

Naked kids in RL- no big deal
Online photo- potentially could be copied etc

That was my logic. Perhaps I've overreacted but you never fully know the people on your friends list.

I sent a message to a FB friend once after she commented on her friend's photo of kids in the bath - I wasn't friends with them but could see their photo. Might not have been any of my business but thought I'd flag up, what strangers (well, friends of friends) could see. However, I wouldn't have reported the photos!

Tee2072 · 30/11/2013 21:20
Hmm
PansOnFire · 30/11/2013 21:24

They aren't actually 'her' photos once they are on Facebook, they belong to anyone who chooses to take them from her page. Yes, she might only have real friends on Facebook but what about the people connected to her? I don't just mean through Facebook. She has been completely irresponsible, I really hope she has tight security settings as if she hasn't then who knows what type of person could end up with possession of them.

Unfortunately there are too many disgusting people in the world for 'minding your own business' to be an option anymore. Stupid, stupid girl. YADNBU, at all.

Kyrptonite · 30/11/2013 21:25

If they were all fully covered up by bubbles I would've left it but it's the fact that the little boy is stood up facing the camera with his penis on show.

Tee2072 · 30/11/2013 21:26

There actually aren't that many disgusting people in the world.

You just think there are.

Kyrptonite · 30/11/2013 21:26

But there are some.

tethersend · 30/11/2013 21:30

Surely the issue is that the photos break FB rules?

Anyone who disagrees with those rules should take it up with FB.

YANBU.

minionmadness · 30/11/2013 21:36

Actually since they aren't her children I hope she sought permission from the children's parents before posting pictures of them in the bath.

It's been removed along with an arsey status. It is bloody stupid especially since they aren't her children.

You should be able to tell how private her album is by the little thing in the corner. If its a globe its public. If its an asterisk she has customised which friends see it and if its 2 heads then its her friends only.

Tbh - its not something I would post but I dont think I would report it.
