Easily - imagine your parents posting your fully nude pictures on FB? Would you be 100% ok with that, even 20-or-so years later?


Why the hell should that be embarrassing? My body looks totally different now.


I can look them up. Drunk Polish guy laughing at you ;-) Enjoying it yet?


Sober Polish adult still doesn't care.


> imagine your parents posting your fully nude pictures on FB?

There is a small but very vocal element in the UK who would be horrified by that, and who would call the police and child protection social services.

I know it's stupid, and that parents have photographs on their children in baths, but these people have caused some problems for parents wishing to take photographs. School sports days, school plays, your child playing at a playground or in the park - all of these have been made difficult places to take photographs at.

Luckily, it's less of a problem now than it was a few years ago.


To be honest, I wouldn't have a problem with that. Of course, it would be quite different if those pictures were taken when I was an adult.

The crux of the issue is that I'm not who I was. Baby chad_oliver was a different person.
