    Default Can I ban children pictures on facebook?

    Seriously, I quite like facebook for 10 minutes a day but I could cut that down to 5 if people didn't post so many pictures of their ugly children on there. Don't do it. Aside from grandparents nobody gives a goddamn ____ what you're child is doing. Really. Nobody cares. Whatever your child is doing we have seen it before. A picture of the socks you plan on wearing tomorrow would be more interesting.

    Do you mean that you want to hide some children pictures taken by your Friends on your Facebook ?

    Other parents care. We like to see our friends kids.
    The only thing in Japan that is harder than being a foreigner in Japan, is being Japanese in Japan.

    yeah facebooks privacy is starting to ____ me off really. Everyone can see your likes and comments, privacy has been shot to hell.

    You can hide the pictures by going to the item and on the right side click the small arrow (drop down list) and hide this post, of hide everything etc. If you go to the users profile in the top right corner there is a more advanced menu for hiding ONLY pictures etc.

    I don't post the pictures for grumps like you.
    His grandparents get to see him 3 maybe 4 times a year.
    If it weren't for Skype and FB, our living in Japan would suck even more than it does for them already.
    Peace out.

    Can we also ban pictures of children for GaijinPot avatars?
    Come as you are.

    I wonder how happy the kids will be in 13 to 16 years when they find their baby pics plastered all over the internet. Nothing better than googling your own name and getting 100+ hits of little James-Olivia taking a dump on a training potty with a larger than life grin.

    I'm not even kidding. I've seen a godamn potty training pic on FB.

    Parents who are posting kiddy pics without setting their privacy settings so that the pics aren't plastered all over the net are fools. As ate parents posting potty training pics.

    Did you just call Effected After's son butt-ugly and less interesting than a pair of socks? That's rather uncalled for even if it happens to be true. If I were him, I might climb on a few of your flyweight threads (ja, there are scores to choose from, most of them drearily unfunny and unoriginal) and remind you what a middling, underachieving half-a-hard-on you really are.

    And no you can't ban anything...at all, ever. You may stand up and shout 'Away with you!' as you flush the toilet but that will always be the limit of your power.

    If seeing pictures of happy & innocent children on FB compels you to rage about the same on GP I think it might be time for an internet disconnect - go get hip-deep in the soil with your pumpkin friends, know what it's like to be a vegetable in a typhoon.

    Fugly kids and boring travel photos cured me of any desire to do FB any longer (only lasted a month). I just don't care what anyone is doing anymore (unless it involves something free for me--like beer).
    I think it's true and that's good enough for me.

    Hey Drongo,
    I just posted pics of my kid taking his morning constitutional. They're arguably even more perfect than yesterday's typhoon adventure series (also featuring the lad). Shall I send you a friend request so you may admire them?

    W*nker...

    Like, seriously, you sound like a valley girl.
    If you call your friend's babies ugly, then they can't really be your friends. Why don't you stop playing the popularity contest by adding "friends" who are not really your friends. Oh, but, wait, maybe you don't have real friends judging by the horrible attitude displayed in your post. That would really cut your facebook time down. Friends: 0 Time you took to check facebook: 1 sec
