So I've seen alot of posts about photos. Ex: What aren't people liking my photo the way that others photos are being liked??? Why are people posting photos with adventurous backgrounds trying to look amazing? Why are women posting photos with their kids inviting pedophiles to date them??? What are these peopel trying to convey? Etc, etc etc. So I had photos with my kid because 1) he is my life and my DNA and comes with me. 2) YEAH in a way I AM looking for a parental figure for him as well. He's only one and if I ever find another partner I want them to play a part in his life. I don't think there's a damn thing wrong with that. 3) they were my most recent photos and I don't have any that aren't with my kid. So, given that I've maybe put him in danger, I deleted him from all my pics. Then I also uploaded some halloween photos just to confuse the general public as much as possible to add to the ridiculousness of all this photo convo. Enjoy.

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.I’m completely confused. But you do a great job with Halloween. Hang in there, I’m still getting my feet back under me after my divorce.
And I’ll treat all of you to an ice cream next time I go through.

This whole "getting likes" thing confuses me. When did we get so damn needy?
As to posting pictures of children, I know people who do it, but I've worked in the computer industry for most of my life, and I tell all of my friends, "for your kids' sakes, don't do it." I've manage Web content for companies like Microsoft, Starbucks, Orion, as well as smaller companies and startups. Any time one of my clients wants to post a picture of their kids I strongly discourage it.
Here's a very brief article on why:
[commonsensemedia.org]
I have dated men with children, but my rule is that I don't meet the children until we know we're "a thing." Kids bond easily, and I don't want to create more havoc in their lives. I love kids, which is why I do it this way.
Other than that, I don't understand why we're so up in everybody's business about what they choose to share on "their" space... I say be you. If it bother's me, I'll be me someplace else... We've gotten way to up in each other's business lately.

@thatgirllaura I wish it was. I also cover my cameras on my laptops with duct tape. People gave me grief for that. A few months ago a picture of Mark Zuckerberg was released showing black tape over the camera on his laptop. There are thousands of Dark Web sites that do all kinds of horrible things.
Like I said, it's what I do for a living. It's my job to understand this stuff.
Awwwwww......you caved, Laura!! C'mon girl -- we gotta be who we are. I thought your photo was adorable. And, I agree with your reasons about why you had it up. If my daughter was a [minor] child, I'd post a picture of her too -- because she was and always will be number ONE in my life. We didn't all agree with the naysayers, and we don't all agree it is an invitation to pedophiles and kidnappers. It's not like you posted naked pictures of your kid with your address. That would be concerning. The beautiful picture of you and your little boy was perfectly perfect!

Post what you are comfortable with. I suspect you have the good judgment to sniff out the rats.

I applaud your honesty. But some have a good point about images of your child on the net. Since you have taken the pics down why don't you add a line to your profile about having a child who is part of the package deal? That way you can have the benefit of screening for men who are sincere about both of you.
