I feel like the person that posted the picture on facebook should've been tagged carolyngrace , if this will be continued to be talked about.
ETA: video. And it was from our private board.
I am sorry but I have to disagree with tagging Carolyn, she posted the video on a private group, it should be her choice to come discuss it on a PUBLIC board. Not ours. Cc belle0720 since she did it too.
It was not my intention to call her out. I felt bad because it was being talked about and thought she should know. I'll happily delete if that is what she wants.

This is a good point. Something I posted on the private board has been brought up on the public board before. It didn't upset me or I would have asked that it be deleted, but sometimes it's really hard to remember what was posted where and know where the boundaries are.

Good point. I guess I just thought with the timing of the UO that it was being directed at her.
You have to think about digital footprints, too. We have no idea what the Internet will be like in 5, 10, 15 years, but do you really want your kid out there like that? My mil gave us some pictures of h as a baby and there's one of him fully nude in there that is super embarrassing to him. Can you imagine how he would feel as an awkward teenager if his mom was like, "oh, look how cute he is cuddled with these teddy bears!" And shared it? I share pictures of my kid of social media, but j can understand why people don't - because of the whole digital footprint thing.
I mean, we just proved a private place isn't private. People always say "I posted it on my private Facebook!" But guess what? Facebook isn't private. Instagram and snapchat aren't private. This board isn't really private.
I was looking through our family photo albums last weekend and came across 2 photos of the same baby, a family friend, fully naked (taken by his mom and given to us). One of the photos was of him with a Santa hat naked in front of the fireplace. I really hope that was just sent to close family and friends. It was pretty weird to find it in our album. The old fashioned social media.
My UO has to do with baby butts too. I hate Honest Co diapers. Some designs are cute but my guy never runs around in public with just a diaper and rarely at home, too dangerous. My nanny girl wears them, they are smelly, seem uncomfortable, and come undone easily. I almost want to tell her mom to send her in different diapers, I won't, I'll just deal.
I love Honest diapers, they're almost the only thing we use for DS.
Also, how is running around in just a diaper at home dangerous? Because honestly, my child is frequently pants-less at home. He doesn't like putting them on, and if we're just hanging out around the house, why are pants required? I could understand if it's cold or something, but right now in the summer, his shorts aren't exactly protecting his legs or anything. I put them on when we go outside, mostly for the sun factor - but inside? Not worth the battle at this point for me.

I was just going to jump in on this. Private board stuff needs to stay on private board.
Agreed. I didn't think of that at the time and am waiting to see if I should delete.

I appreciate being tagged so I can be aware of this convo since I haven't had time to catch up here yet today..
Point taken. I can't say I necessarily agree, since I posted the video in the first place, but I do see what you're saying and the video has been deleted.

Yeah, not safety dangerous, in case of a potential poopy diaper dangerous. My kid still poops like 3 times a day sometimes and with climbing and running it could explode much easier! Pants give an extra layer of protection.
I should add that it hasn't happend lately, we're not hanging out in poop land at our house, I just don't want to deal with it if it does.

Makes sense, I read it as safety dangerous, which is why I was confused. When DS was younger, he had on all the pants all the time as well in case of blow outs!
I'm not on FB but I'll be honest and say I had an inkling it was about someone specific. Because 2 people had the same UO and then madymoiselle said it could get interesting. Obviously I had no idea who. carolyngrace took it in stride but if it were someone else it could have been a big deal. Everyone (myself included) should just use this as a reminder to be careful what you post and what you are discussing where.
ETA if your tapatalk is like mine and no pics show up...my child is wearing a onesie, for the sake of our conversation and I can't see anyone's photos either.
I love croutons, but the ones at Ruby Tuesdays (I think they are a pumpernickel rye and then DEEP FRIED) make me want to gag. Normal croutons FTW, though. Salads are immensely better when they are included.
Is this where I admit that I've been drinking gin and sparkling water? I wake up hydrated and refreshed because of the H2O. Don't hate.
Gin is great with so many things. So versatile. Grapefruit juice and sparkling water.. watermelon juice.. freaking vermouth and olives.. you can't go wrong with gin.
Baby butts = no big deal, although I am not comfortable posting my baby's butt (though it is visible in a few of her newborn shots). But I can see why it's not a good idea.
Baby genitals = They shouldn't be a big deal, but we live in a sick and fucked up world, so it makes me uncomfortable when I see it, although I thought CG's video was cute and thought differently since it was in a private group (I know, I know...internet privacy is a magical unicorn that doesn't exist).
ETA - This message brought to you by the delicious 7 layer burrito I am currently shoveling into my mouth.
7 layer is my taco bell go-to. Also the cheesy bean and rice. I love both TB and DT but I think I appreciate DT more because I can't get it very often.
UO with J15: I'm shocked at the amount of highly sensitive and personal stories that are shared on behalf of people in your life. Would not want my struggles/heartbreak/issues shared with others without my knowledge.
In what sense? A lot of times people share these stories because they are also affected. If it's just to share the story for entertainment purposes I see your point.

If someone shares a story because it directly affects them and they need advice or support, I totally get that. When the story has nothing to do with you and you share it, I can't really get behind that. I would feel like total shit if some people I had never met were discussing my life and any problems I might currently be having. And I would be pissed off at whichever "friend" of mine brought my personal drama to discuss with other people. It just doesn't sit right with me, but I'm sure there are plenty of people who think it's NBD.
I see what you're saying. Do T&P requests for non board members fall into this category for you?

My intention wasn't to just share someone else's business for the fun of it. I'm genuinely hurt that this is how it was taken. I had felt bad for her and thought I could talk about it on the private board, because it's a private place for us to talk about important and private things and [loved ones] in our life. I know now to not be so open with my life because then I just end up looking like an inconsiderate asshole when that is the last thing I want to do.
Eta: I think budders explained my thoughts much more eloquently than I ever could.
