One of our big supermarkets chains is in the news today for refusing to print a photo of a five month old child with a naked butt. The photo is deemed pornographic. Actually, the child in question is now 21 and his mother wanted a baby picture of him put on his birthday cake but staff refused to do it until the butt was covered with a star.
How utterly ridiculous is that?
A few years ago, Boots, another high street chain store, reported customers for having naked pictures of their children on their camera. The child in question was a baby enjoying a soak in his bath.
I have to confess to having taken pictures of numerous cousins, nephews and nieces in various states of undress, particularly cute ones in bathtubs with bubbles all over them, or on changing mats. So, does that make me a child molester? Should I confess my sins or burn the evidence?
I totally want the children of the world to be protected by predators but sometimes these things get out of hand!

Oh, what a silly nonsense of them. It’s reactions like this that actually causes un-normal situations. If all acted as it were natural - which it is - it wouldn’t be that much problem. *sigh*
It’s the wrong way to go.
Pssst. Note my changed emailaddress!

Idiots! I can think of nothing more constructive to say, it makes me so irritated. Why can’t people use some common sense?
