I think as long as their genitals aren't visible then it's ok. I draw that destinction for 2 reasons...1)creepers on the internet and 2)even childrens genitals make people uncomfortable and I don't think that facebook is the right kind of forum for that
@mcklough: Just to clarify in this case, genitals were FULLY visible
I dont think it's a big deal. That's the beauty in the innocence of a child, its harmless. I dont think it would be inapprorpriate at an older age though.
Given the fact that so many people anymore have umpteen thousands of "friends" anymore, I'm pretty sure your naked baby is none of their business. Print a picture, show your mom and your friend and call it a day. I can appreciate that it *can* be cute given the right photographer. But I honestly don't want to see your naked kid sloshing around in the tub that you happened to capture on your iphone. It's awkward and there are 1 too many pedophiles out there. If you're gonna post on facebook you need to customize the visibility.
On FB NOOOOO. If its your own scrap book or photo albums, yes. Cause who doesnt love cute naked babies. But only to a certain age. Like 2 being the oldest. After that it seems alittle creepy. My grandma go pictures of some cousins kids, and they sent naked "bath" pictures, and one of the kids was like 5 in them....it seemed alittle wrong, and even she agreed.
Absolutely not. I also am hyper-sensitive about this because in the newsfeed at the side, if someone comments on it, all of that person's friends could see it. So for instance, "Brielle commented on Bakerella's photo" comes up in all of Brielle's friends newsfeeds, and any of those friends can click on it and see the photo. So you're not just sharing it with your friend list only.
Pictures of kids, fine. Pictures of nekked kids, no.
Nope. I have put up pics of my bonus son in the bathtub, but you can't see any of his body parts, that's where I draw the line. You never know what weird, perverted people are out there. Plus, in all of those horror stories about people doing stuff to kids, it's always a friend of the family that the parents didn't suspect. More than likely those creeps are on your fb.
No, not genitals, not on FB, not a chance, never. Like @mwitter80: said, maybe a bathtub picture where everything is covered, but that's the absolute limit.
My account is very private, but when I post pictures or, well, anything, I do so with the understanding that as private as I try to keep it, chances are someone I don't know will see it, and I won't take that risk with my child. Not with so many creeps on the internet. The last thing I want is for a seemingly harmless picture of my child to become masturbation material for some pervert.
If a family member wants to see pictures like that, I can email them privately or share them in person.
They are the cutest pics, but I couldn't do that without thinking of all the pervs out there who might be getting off on the pic of my child. Children are at high risk, so why would you want to take a chance by ID'ing your naked child on the net?
I mean, I wouldn't do it out of respect for my children...once it's on the internet, it's always on the internet.
Mostly, I think it's innocent, esp. if genitals aren't obvious.
I don't have an issue with the cutesie baby butt shots (though I don't know if I'd post any of my own kid) but posting a naked picture of a toddler or older is totally inappropriate. Genitals are NEVER okay unless it's a just born shot and even then, I'd try to avoid it.
no way. especially if they're 2 or 3. there are too many creepy people on the internet. I'm hyper sensitive to this though, especially just-post-birth pictures. I think it's seriously strange to share a photo of a newborn covered in my... kaschlopa goo... with everyone.
Don't like it.. when they are babes fine but NO genitals, never. Little girls with no tops on (i mean like babies) doesn't bother me, but nothing below the waist boy or girl - no matter what age. In this world of facebook, social media, internet searches i would be so afraid some creepo would end up with my little one's picture on their computer for their own twisted reasons.
Don't like it at all!!!!
I think the worst baby picture I've ever seen on FB would have been taken when the poor child was only seconds old.
THE Dad took a photo of bubs being born by c-section and the camera is literally pointing at the poor child's scrotum! I understand taking pictures at birth but I just didn't need to see THAT view on my news feed!
No, those photos are to be kept for close family and very close friends. They're still little people after all, and posting a pic on FB is kinda shoving it in people's faces.
I think, 10000%, that child genitalia (or any genitalia!) needs to be kept off the facebook wall. I can think of no reason it needs to be there. Hell, take 5 seconds to blur it out if you simply MUST post a picture...but please. I don't like seeing it pop up in my feed, I won't ever do it to my future kiddos, it just makes me squeamish and uncomfortable for the child.
I think the shots done by photographers where you can see the baby butt is...eh? I mean, I wouldn't do it, but I can see how it's cutesy and artistic. It doesn't make me want to throw up at least.
Definitely not! Bathtub photos are cute when everything is covered - completely nude pictures with full on view of the genitals is not ok. I don't even like the brand new, just born baby photos with the genitals showing. I think they're fine for close friends and family, but definitely not for the internet world, no matter how tight the controls are on your facebook page.
Always have thought its weird. Even the ones with the topless newborn baby girl in a tutu skirt. Those seem to be popular as of late. -_-
Yea I dont want to see baby junk ever anyway so dont post it on your FB! Topless boy/girl shots and baby butts are okay though...
No way - and not just because of the pervs that might see. Once you upload those photos, Facebook "owns" them. Plus, parents have gotten in big trouble over these innocent baby pictures because in some areas it falls under child pornography. I don't need child services or law enforcement knocking on my door to arrest me for disseminating child pornography.
This is the world we live in now, unfortunately.
I would say no on this one. People can never know who actually can see the pictures regardless of the privacy settings etc!
If you can't see the genitals, I don't have an issue with it. But if genitals are showing, keep it in the personal family photo album and off Facebook.
If genitals are showing I would flag it and I think facebook will make them take it down. 100% think this is wrong.
I think this is so wrong. Once you put a picture up on the internet it is out of your control where that photo goes. Even if you think you have good privacy settings there are ways other people will see the photo, as bakerella said. Way too many perverted people out there for a naked picture of my child to be floating around.
Any nudity is also against facebook policy as well. I'd flag the photo and have facebook take it down. It's sad that parent can't see what's proper on their own.
I worked at JCPenney portraits and we couldn't even take pictures of kids over a year old - was considered "too close" to child pornography. Some parents were upset but most understood.
I personally don't think it's acceptable to post a picture of anything naked on FB, let alone your 2-3 year old child.

to post nude pictures of your children (babies/toddlers) on facebook? I think no and one of my FB friends just did it and I think its inappropriate. Its fine to show a family member a photo of your child in a bathtub or whatever but to post a nude picture of your two year old standing in your kitchen for all to see on the INTERNET? I don't think so. What are your thoughts? Am I wrong?
ETA: In this particular case the child is 2 or 3 and genitals are fully visible in the pic posted.
