Sew very nice to receive a reminder now and then. Just goes to show how we try to watch each others backs. Thanx

My kids are in their 40s and 50s. No worry about them.
My two purebred dogs are never outside without me. My alley cats are never out of the house. Lots of info on ancestry and census websites. If you are dead or alive all your info is out there. Telephone and address are easy to get. |

I would kindly like to remind our family here of something. Please, Please do not publish private information here on the forums. Information such as addresses, phone numbers and emails. All it takes it one scoundrel to register here and something bad may happen.
If such things need to be exchanged, this is what PM's are for. Chase Please do not post addresses or other personal contact info on this or any forum where "mean" people can find them. Even though one might feel safe here cause it's our "home". There are still people trying to "peek in the windows". |

Yes anything you wouldn't post on Facebook shouldn't be posted here.
People post the dumbest things on FB. Emails, address, phone numbers, etc. I would bet that most photos posted have the GPS co-ordinates imbedded. Scary. sandy |

I try to not use my children's names or pictures on here, but had a momentary lapse several years when I posted a picture of a completed quilt. My son's daughters' pictures were on the back. Several weeks later, I was on Pinterest looking for a particular type of quilt and there were my granddaughters. I was sick about it - I called my son who was a police officer for eight years just to let him know. There were no names or addresses, of course, but I felt terrible putting the pics of those two beauties out into the world. They post their own pictures on FB all the time, but I don't.

The first thing they do is add the picture to their catalog offering to custom kidnap YOUR child for pedophiles! Police have warnings about this all over the Internet. Please be careful with your precious Angels. (I have even heard of the same thing being done with purebred animal pictures posted online!)
