  1. She’s awfully cute, Rey. That hair reminds me my 8yo when she was that age. Fortunately it’s calmed down a little since then.

    Serious question – how did you decide to put pictures of your kids on your site? I know other bloggers are firmly against it citing safety reasons. Any thoughts on the matter?

  2. I grew up in the city, surrounded by hundreds of thousands of crazies and was usually under the vigilant stare of my parents eyes…that may sway my opinion a bit.

    I’ve found that when it comes to maintaining an online presence for business purposes (rreynoso.com for example) a lot of my privacy goes right out the www-window. Worst, I have a very unique name which even a marginal search would yield results. People can easily find information about me and my family and even the home I own with a few moments of extra perseverance. Since I pretty much had my identity on the web since before my kids were born I knew there was no way to erase that information; I must merely increase vigilance where I am…just as my parents always did with us.

    Now there are some people who have the grace to have a very common name (like a John Smith) and who managed to post online and conceal everything about themselves because they aren’t aiming at income through the web. I think these folk are better able to protect themselves from the crazies online but even so, I don’t think that they should be lax: crazies online live offline.

    A quick search on registered sex offenders can tell you how many were caught, after a legal age and convicted.

    That being the case, I don’t make my blog a daily kid post but I don’t hide the fact that I have them either. I increase vigilance where I am and embrace the non-celebrity status of my sites. (Tim Challies and Jeremy Pierce will likely draw way more crazies than I would but I think they both do a good job of being careful with how often private information gets brought up even though they’re relatively well known in a couple of circles).

  3. Man, she has got your look DOWN, especially that look you get when you’re right about something and know it. ;) Maybe that’s just her perspective she’s emulating.

    (Although she’s totally channeling Paz in that second one, which strikes me as odd since she obviously didn’t go to college with us…)
