With the phone number most people didn't knowingly put it up, but if you signed up to mobile alerts it puts it in your details anyway and you then have to go and change the settings/

I was quite amazed at how many folk put that up on a social network.
Frightening, isn't it? I do get worried about how many young people who don't yet appreciate how valuable their personal details can be are already giving those details away - quite probably without any chance of regaining their privacy in the future...Although as Croc says, a lot of people don't realize their data's going to be made public - which is another reason why I have a major problem with FB...
I just had a look on mine and about 8% of my friends have their mobile numbers visible.
How do you go about deactivating FB ,I have had a change of heart about joining ,cheers peeps.
Account - account settings - deactivate account
You can deactivate it,but it's not totally cancelled it's still there(not visible) in case you want to re-activate it again.
Thankyou Croc ,I just have an uneasy feeling about FB so I am going with my gut instinct and deactivating.
Job done
Funnily enough I have about 650 people on my FB - all of them fms from C4/here or people added for games etc that I don't know really and I've never ever had a problem at all with any of them.
As I said earlier, the only problems I've had on there were with family members so I would just say to anyone who is put off of FB by what they hear to maybe give it a go and see what they think.
I haven't been to FB much for several weeks but the games are great and it's wonderful to keep in touch with online friends who don't/won't/can't come and chat here

It's people that hack your account and info though as far as I can see Veggie
yep I blocked a r/l mate who isn't a mate anymore because she had a baby and turned into nutter 
We obviously weren't great mates to start with 
And myself and Bov argue all the time and end up blocking each other kind of like a slamming the door after an argument kinda thing. The only thing is you de-friend the person at the same time so you have to re-add them when harmony is restored

omg @ the poop skating
Yep, but that's the type...'I am so lucky to have such a wonderful baby, anyone who doesn't have one is living a sad lonely existence and doesn't understand the meaning of the word love' type thing

what would make you take the time to go get a camera & take a picture of that, and then post it proudly on facebook... surely you would freak out... snatch the baby out of that contraption... clean it up... and then clean the floor..
AND THEN BLEACH EVERYTHING!!!
yeuwwwwwwwww!

I am so glad my days of cleaning horrendous poo events up are over!
I remember the day I walked into my son's room.. he was in his cot, happy as larry, having ripped his nappy off & decided to redecorate everything within reach with the contents of it..
I remember being stunned and unable to move for a good 30 seconds

Ditty
I will NEVER forget the day i had to cut Finn's vest off...the poop was all the way up his back, though I laugh, the worst is yet to come. I bought him a potty last week so bring on the poops

oh the joys of potty cleaning...
neither of mine liked the potty.. we had to get one of those little person loo seats that clips onto your own loo seat... and has a little step for them to get up on it....
suited me.. the loo flushes

pfft, what is wrong with you two... clearly you should have been taking pics so you could share the joy with your friends 
they're a bit old for all that now Saz.. but should any horrendous poo moments happen in the future, I will, just for you, be sure to take pics & post them!
(I seriously hope I haven't just tempted fate..... if something extreme happens in our household it will be all my fault)

Saz....I think I did make a status about it if that helps? Oooh Ditty I didn't even think they made such things! Oh how great would it be if he went straight to toilet

both mine did
Temps it's twice the work doing the potty stage first coz then you have to do the transistion from potty to loo 
My first kid went straight to loo but the 2nd decided he was going to make me do it the hard way and it took MONTHS to get him on the big loo. I regretted even buyin the potty in the first place but I suppose it was better than changin the nappies which as you mentioned, sometimes clattered the kid and clothes in the mess which was escaping from them.

All mine went straight to the loo....with the clip on toilet seat....
ooooh thanks Bella....I might try the loo thing then...so it's just a step and some sort of clip on seat I need?
How do I start off with it? Is it that's it no more nappies or nappies and toilet for a bit or what?
So sorry to the OP for the extreme turn in topic

It depends on the kid...mine all came out day and night at the same time...once they cracked the day i left the nappy off at night too....
Its easier when the weather is a bit warmer though cos you can let him run round in just some pants and keep getting on and off the toilet

Well I've only got 2 so I'm sure other people are more qualified in this but with mine I waited til the months were a bit warmer not because of the clothes but because you know yourself the shock you get when you sit on a cold loo that;s enough to put kids off too lol then I got a big box and wrapped it in colourful paper and put lots of crap from the ÂĢshop and sweets into it and told my son everytime he actually went to the loo he could take something out of the box. This worked well with the first one who was toilet trained in the daytime in ONE day....and then after a few months his nappy was dry every morning so that part sorted itself it. Younger son was different though, he found the box under my bed and ate all the sweets out of it and because there was no mystery to the toys he wasn't bothered. Took months to get him from nappy to potty to the loo but as soon as he was on the big loo he insisted he was big enough to never wear a nappy again so nights were very quick for him.
Oh and it's Ells

A thread about FB blocking turns into potty training
I never used a potty with any of my kids,straight to toilet.I used to keep a little basin in the loo that they upturned to stand on to reach the loo to pee to sit on the loo to poo ...I got my grandson a little step which folds out,he uses that to reach,his parents got him a gadget that went from a potty to a little loo seat.he progressed more up here just using the loo tbh.
Thats a very clean baby in the Poo picture,not a Poo mark on its clothes or legs.I think the picture is set up.
I love this topic swerve!
Temps.. my daughter basically decided for herself it was time for the loo .. the boy was different though.. he hated every change, and fought them all with the tenacity of a pitbull. He was quite old when I decided enough was enough with the nappies.. .. so when he wanted to go there was only the loo to go in. He was definitely old enough to physically control himself, and to mentally understand what was going on.
I have seen some of my friends tie themselves up in knots, and make life very very hard for themselves trying to potty train kids that just weren't ready for it.
Don't stress about it, don't make it a battle... bear in mind that they're all out of nappies & going to the loo by the time they start school

Thats what someone said on the comments on the blog... i'm clinging to the hope that it is in fact chocolate mousse and the pic is a setup
I just accepted a friend request of someone I used to go to primary school with and it appears that she has a lot of BB forum folk as friends on fb aswell 
It's a small world........I think she's here on gaga aswell I'm actually quite shocked that we might have been posting here together and never actually realized 
Ella block them QUICK!!!! 
Ells, so sorry, I knew it was you, but I get confused when I see the full names Loving the smartness of the second kid nicking the sweets Ditty & co I'm not sure if he's ready or not, he just seems pretty fascinated with the loo, so thought I'd give it a whirl, if it works great, if not I'll wait till he's 2. But i never knew you could go straight to loo, so will try that first, I'd love it if it worked
Again, so sorry for the hijack, just wanted to reply to those who offered their advice, now back to blocking the world..not the toilet
