Is it fine to post an image of a child on social network sites?

Shavkat @Shavkat (140119) • Philippines 20 Apr 13

For some reason, some people are against into this. They are insinuating that posting pictures of children in social network is against the child's rights. If the parents are so proud to post their photos, then it is fine. Is it...

sixntombstone I would not call it a crime unless the pictures are of abuse. As long as the parents or legal guardians of the child are ok with relatives posting innocent pictures of their kid then I don't see a real issue. But what parents and legal guardians may want...

We've been looking for a professional sized wood chipper for a long time, but they're hard to find and very expensive. We have just taken the opportunity to buy one at a knock down price, BUT it's broken. The clutch is broken and...

sixntombstone First I would try to get an estimate of what it would cost a repairman to fix it. Maybe get two or three estimates. After that I would see if it would be cost effective for me to fix it myself or hire someone else to do it. Then I would compare the cost of...

What Would You Call This?

STOUTjodee @STOUTjodee (3573) • United States 19 Apr 13

Say you own a trailer home park. Some of the people own their own trailer houses, while others are renting. You've kept the same rent at the same rate for several years, but within 2 months you've raised the rent about $100. There...

sixntombstone In my state if a landlord wants to raise the rent they can but they have to give 30 days or more notice. That depends on if they have a month to month agreement or lease agreement with their tenants. If it is month to month then the 30 day notice is needed, if...

sixntombstone Your SIL sounds a bit out of touch with the world around her. Does she not realize you have family outside of her, who you want to see as well. I don't think there is anything you can do to please her. Just think if you had brought your tired cranky child to...

Why exactly do people feel like spreading rumors?

Sissy15 @sissy15 (12303) • United States 16 Feb 13

I began to think today about why non-professional photographers take pictures.

Barbara Radisavlejvic @bagarad (14283) • Paso Robles, California 12 Dec 12

There is a new fee out there

CraftyCorner @CraftyCorner (5600) • United States 7 Feb 13

There is a new fee out there waiting to ravage your pocket book while you are not looking as you innocently use your credit card to make a purchase. It is called a 4% transaction fee for every cent you spend on that piece of...

sixntombstone For years merchants absorbed that fee as part of doing business. But since the economy has gone south, merchants now want to pass certain fees on to their customers. My problem with this is that they already charge for that fee in the price they charge for...

Wedding Venue

sixntombstone Maybe try making your own memories at that spot, with your boyfriend. Then it might become as special to you as it is to him. Or maybe look into a compromise. Have the reception at the lake and the wedding at a place you consider special.
