Seemingly a great idea for sharing photos and information between distant friends and family members, in reality an open invitation for paedophiles to use as their main source of information, revealing age of kids, what they look like, usually home location and school. What more could they require - and so easily obtained too.
So lets say someone aquires this information, how does it put my children at risk?
Anymore than say them walking a dog past school at 3:30 liking the look of some child? What is the percentile risk?
Possibly if the person lives within 100 miles of my child, they could observe him/her but how does this put my child at risk?
There is zero risk really of of a paedophile finding a picture on facebook, looking for a way to find that persons school, then trying to abduct them?
How many times has that happened?
What really happens is abusers find children who are known to them, or vunerable adults (in care homes, on the streets and mentally ill) befrend them (known as grooming) and then abuse them.
There is ZERO chance of them finding a picture of a child they like on the internet, that child being close enough to observe,then them getting access, then being able to befriend the child and then abuse them-its bizzare logic.
The arguments that posting images puts children at risk is not based upon facts or logic.
