I am part of a moms group on Facebook for moms with babies born the month bs1 was. I was asked yesterday why I don't ever take pictures of my skids. I just said that I take them but don't tend to post them. That's sort of a half truth. Yes I take some.....but far far less than of my bios. And even of the ones I take, I take them more for dh than anything so I don't even post the majority of what I take of them.

I'll post the occasional groups shot a few time a year and a candid of each kid if I am taking one of everyone in a specific shot. But generally I'll post many one or two per outing just to keep people off my back about it.

What do you guys do?

My SS27 posts totally inappropriate things about his drug use/possible dealing.

No way I want to be associated with him at all. Even DH defriended him because of it. I posted on pics of SS on HIS FB page but no connection to me at all. I was signed in as him when I posted (at his request).

I am pretty sure I don't have any pics of SD16 on my facebook unless I took a pic of the 3 kids together and posted that. I have to go look. I try not to take any pictures of her at all!!!

I really don't like taking pictures of my skids either. I love love love photographing my boys.....but I get this frog in my throat when I have to take their pictures.....mainly SD. She's so full of herself already that posing for photos just ups the ante to be a brat.

Its like I see their pictures and remember all the shit they put me through that day/outing. Even looking through old photos from when I actually liked them....my first thought is.oh that the day SD faked the asthma attack and we had to leave early.....or that was the day SS kicked dirt in the other boys eyes at the park....that's the day they got into a physical fight of who got the hold the receipt.

The way I see it MY Facebook page is just that.....MINE. But I do throw up a few to keep from having to hear too Mich squawking.

I have never posted their photos on my FB page. I don't take their pictures, anyway. Blech.

DH can post pics of Skids on FB. I have in the past but I really don't like to post pictures of them, my world knows about them, if they want to see pics they can go to DH's page. I also don't post pics of my BS, he has his own page.

I have a couple of old pics of ss on facebook-maybe from around 2008 or so. I stopped taking pics of him around that time. Literally. Our last "family" vaca in which ss was included was in 2010. The only photos of him are ones in which he is there accidentally-I am taking a photo of my child and he walks into the edge of the shot or something Smile I'm not his mom, nor his dad. He doesnt like me, we are not "close" by any means, it was a very difficult relationship. So, why on earth would I want to take photos or him or post them for the world to see?

I actually plan to remove the ones I posted back in 07 or 08 when I get around to it.

I RARELY post pictures or status updates about SD. And I also un tag myself if anyone else tags me in her photos (a grandparent or my husband.) I will post a few of her with my baby, and maybe have posted 3 ever of just her. Nothing personal, just not my first thought when taking pictures or posting on FB.

I post pics of my skids pretty often. BM and everyone I can associate with her are all blocked. I regularly check my security so only my friends can see photos.

DH has access to my FB since he deleted his account last year. We mostly use it to share pictures with his family (only one family member lives on our same coast).

This will likely change in the next few months. My cell phone contract is up and I'll be downgrading to a simple talk/text only phone. Without FB at my fingertips, I don't think I'll be uploading/posting anywhere near what I used to.

0. I don't post anything about her either. I figure its a possible can of worms I don't really care to open. When BF and I marry, I likely will feel less reserved about it.

I have more pictures of my dogs than of my ss on mine. We don't do too much that 'needs to be captured' but when we do go out I try to take some of him and his dad (and i'll post those on my guys fb). he may not be mine, but I know my guy likes having pictures of him and his kid.

NONE. lol never had fb back then, but never had her pics in my house...and before anyone bashes me, NO, I didn't have pics of my BIO son either so that she wouldn't feel bad even though I would have loved to...I STILL don't have pics of my bio up at my house and we never see her.

I don't take any pictures of SS. DW keeps taking pictures of him and keeps giving them to me in one way shape or form. I am still trying to figure out a nice diplomatic way to get her to stop. Right now I got pictures of SS on my desk, on my coffee mug, on my keychain and a couple of wallet size photos as well.

I steer clear of Facebook. I only go on there when I am drunk. FB has better meaning for me that way.

I don't post any unless I absolutely cannot get out of it. Like the family dinner we had awhile back. I posted pics of everybody else there (my family) so I had to post a pic of her or DH would have noticed and resented it.

I used to post pictures of SD for my DHs family could see how big she was getting. I would tag them, but now I don't. She has her own FB page and she can post all the pictures of herself she wants.

Group photo only, I never post just a skid or two, ever. I do send nice photos of just skids to DH with the suggestion he post for his family so he can't say I play favorites, I flat out told him if he wants the skids up for his family to see, he will be the one to put them up because his XW is a bitch, period. and . dot .

My FB is limited, I only friend very close friends and family, I stay on top of my security preferences, but online is public and that is always under consideration when I post photos.

BD13\SD13 are both friended to me, which I am also very aware of, my FB postings are very general and rarely personal for reason as well.

I tag SD13 in group photos so she doesn't feel left out to be polite - and sometimes I send a cute photo of BD13 asking her to post it up herself if she wants.

But I never ever just post skids.
