We feel it necessary to post an important announcement on an issue that is a growing problem amongst bloggers everywhere. I myself have taken my family blog private because of this issue.I won’t attempt to retell the story of what happened to a friend of mine, so I’ll gladly add the link here so that you can read the story first-hand:
You can decide for yourself after reading her story what to do with your own family blog. We just wanted to make sure we did our part to make you aware!

Ashley, I went private several months ago, but did not change my blog address, is this necessary? Of course my only reason was to keep my ex-hub out! Also, do you know why new posts won't update on my approved readers dashboards?This must just be one of those things we must deal with. I feel for your friend and cannot even imagine.
ReplyDeleteIo ho deciso di non inserire foto mie e della mia famiglia nel mio blog proprio per non avere problemi...
ReplyDeleteI decided not to post my family photos just to avoid this problem. Thanks for information.

OMG - thanks for sharing this information! This is why I don't post ANY pictures of my kids on my blog. I wasn't sure at the time if I was just being overly-paranoid or not, but this post has clarified that. Thanks!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing, I also went private a month or so ago. Had a similar situation where someone became a follower who I did not know. It was enough to creep me out.
ReplyDeleteI can not even imagine what your friend must have felt...
Sharonda - no, there's no need to change your blog address.
ReplyDeleteTo everyone else, thanks for your comments, there's some yucky people out there!!
Wow, thanks for the information. I have a couple posts on my blog with my kids but no longer do that so I can keep my family stuff private! This info was great to read. Thx
