Am I paranoid?

I posted a pic of my LO to facebook and one of my friends shared the pic on her wall.  Her friend's list is private so I am not sure who or how many people can see it. I know everyone on my friend's list personally and don't like that she posted it to her wall.  I told her that I am flattered that she reposted it but asked her to remove it and explained why. Do you think I am being paranoid?  I just don't want his pic all over cyber space.

    I used to be kind of like this, but it's impossible to really control it so I just let it go. My friends are always taking DD's picture and posting it, and all her grandparents/step-grandparents/aunts are sharing pics, and I have no idea who's all on their friend lists. My news feed is a pretty constant stream of babies, and I guess I just figure what can really happen. I'm sure that's really naive of me, but it's what I tell myself! So I guess I think you're a little paranoid, but I don't blame you at all.

    Absolutely not. DH and I have agreed no pics if DD up on the Internet. We both don't have Facebook but my best friend does and she looks out to see if anyone does post a pic if DD and she lets us know. So far just my dumb cousin posted a pic but we asked her to take if down right away and she did. Everyone else respects our decision and doesn't post pics of DD.

    We are right there with you. I actually did ask a friend to take own a picture that she took with her phone then instantly put on FB. I just said that I know she love s LO but we really didn't want his picture on FB and would she mind taking it down. It was no big deal.

    We do keep a online album of his photos so that our family can see how he's growing but it is a private album on picass and we only share the link with family. I like it a lot better than FB.

    Honestly, if you don't want your LO's picture on the internet, don't post pictures on Facebook. You have no control over that picture after you post it.

    I'd say unless your babies a celebrity .. I wouldn't worry about it.  I dont think it is to a point where someone can come and steal your baby or steal your identity.  In fact, on a positive note the way I see it with my DS.  The more pics I have of him out there, if he were to go missing.. someone would notice him sooner!
