Please don't put your child's naked pictures online.........anywhere! I recently discovered online, a naked picture of a distant relative's child. This is causing me a lot of distress. I've told the family my concerns, but the picture remains on MySpace where it is common knowledge what school these parents went to school, which could make it easier for a predator to locate this child.
I've discussed my concerns with members of Psych Central, a large Mental Health website. Some members say parents do this because they love their child and are proud of their child and want to show off their child. Others say parents are trying to teach their child to have a healthy view of sex and their bodies. In my opinion, and that of many other members of Psych Central, when it comes to putting a child's naked picture on the Internet, their number one concern needs to be to protect their child from possible predators. If parents don't protect their children, who will?
Another concern which parents need to consider is how will your child feel someday, knowing that you put these pictures on the Internet for anyone and everyone to see? Many of us suffered embarrassment as children when our parents showed intimate pictures of us to family members or close friends. I urge you to consider your child's feelings and more importantly their safety, and keep your naked photos of them in an album at home.
Predators will find online pictures and use them for their own purposes even if they never attempt to have contact with the child. As a senior citizen, mother of four and grandmother of two, I believe I have the knowledge, experience and wisdom that is required to give advice to young parents. Please do not put your child's naked pictures on the Internet!
