Newsflash to mothers: Noone cares about your child. Stop posting pictures of them all over the internet before they have a say in it. Also, don't bring your spawn to the office. It is obnoxious and, once again, no one cares about your child.

Most annoying shit ever - when someone sets their profile picture/avatar/whatever as their baby. It's just fucked up and weird.

I don't believe that. I know a few two year olds and the most they enjoy doing is watching TV and drooling over everything. They don't have the intelligence to type in a URL. Shens

The article was referring to children having an online record (courtesy of their parents), not actually using the computer themselves.

People do care - other mothers. Or at least they pretend to care. This is exactly why when my wife and I have kids they'll have their own social networking profile which will essentially just consist of pictures. If someone cares about my kid, or wants to pretend to care about my kid, they can follow my kid. If they don't care about my kid, they won't get bombarded with crap from me.

And of course I'll register their domain names as soon as they're born - not that there is a whole lot of demand for domain names that include my (very rare) last name.

Not at my house they're not. I don't have any children under the age of 20 living in my house.

I email pictures of our daughter to family, but I don't have a facebook account or host them on my webpage or anything. I don't have the same reaction as some of you though, I'm not appalled when others want to show pics of their kids online.

People do want to see them though (at least women). Every woman I know and see at work is constantly asking me if I have any new pictures, expecting me to carry a whole album in my pocket. So I understand why people post them online. I wouldn't look like a dick for not carrying tons of pics everywhere if I had someplace for people to go see the pics on their own time.

Yeah, my buddy and his wife set up an FB account for their son maybe 2 weeks after he was born (he's 2 now).

Initially his Wall was filled with updates of when he puked or had his diaper changed :rolleyes:.

My buddy currently has his son on his own profile pic too.

Sensationalist bullshit, include third-world countries and watch that number go below 50%.
