GOOD LORD. I finally bent to peer pressure and signed up for Facebook. Am I going to regret it? Any fannish horror stories to share? Anything in particular I should be wary of? Facebook. ::shudder::

One of our workshops at school was about online safety, and they had several examples of people who had been prosecuted for not reporting photos of kids with drugs and alcohol. They made it very, very clear that it was better not to know than to open yourself up to liability.

I think it only applies to "mandated reporters" (teachers, social workers, therapists, doctors, etc.) but better safe than sorry.

Their mother, my mother, their aunt and a passel of other relatives are all on their lists, too, and their mom has all of their passwords. I'm confident these kids are covered. But any others? No dice.
