I do not use Facebook, based on a long-ago request from my "kids". They

I trust them even more now. They requested that SWMBO and I not join Facebook
so that they could have their privacy. We went along with that request.


Please consider another father talk with your
kids. Anything posted to FB is public info.
Regardless of privacy settings. Sounds like
your kids need some instruction on how to NOT
post personal information on the computer.


Why do you think I need to talk to my kids? What in my original post
indicates that my kids don't understand how Facebook works? Why do you
think that they are posting "personal information on the computer"?


1) Some thing they are posting, they don't want you to see

Not true. Wanting their privacy is very different than not wanting us
to see what they post. That might be hard for some to understand, but I
get it. In addition, we have lots of family members, including my
(and SWMBO's) brothers and sisters who are FB friends with my kids. If
my kids were trying to hide things from us, Facebook would not be the
place to do it. They simply asked for some separation and we honored
that request. It's called trust and respect.

2) Nothing. What, in my reply, makes you think I said any
thing about your kids knowing how FB works?

I quote: "Please consider another father talk with your
kids. Anything posted to FB is public info. Regardless of
privacy settings."

Why would you suggest that I have "another" talk with my
kids and then follow that with an explanation of how Facebook
works unless you thought that they needed it explained to them?

If the talk is not supposed to be about Facebook privacy
settings/issues, just what are you suggesting that I talk to
them about?

3) Because they asked *you* not to be on FB

That was addressed in #1 above.


Hey, if you don't want to take my advice,
that's fine. Why spend post after post
blathering on and on about it? Methinks
thou doth protest too much. If you were
truly comfortable and secure, you could
easily have said no thank you, and been
done with it. Why are you making so much
effort, and changing the subject?


Is that the best defense you have for your erroneous post?

You know, you could just admit your error. Yes, it is legal
and ethical to apologize on usenet.


I'm not defending any thing. I'm suggesting
to you that there are other ways to handle
a moment when you don't like a suggestion.

And, no, I will not apologize for making a
sincere suggestion. You may wish to apologize
for goal post shifting, changing the subject,
and taking offense when none was meant.


Your suggestion was based on your assumption that my kids "need some instruction on
how to NOT post personal information on the computer. " (your words)

That assumption was incorrect. That assumption was also a change of subject.

You are assuming that I took offense. That is another incorrect assumption. I was not offended
by your suggestion, but I do have the right to ask you why you made it. When you give your
reasons, I have the right to point out the error in your thought process. That's called a
conversation.

You say that I don't want to take your advice. That is also incorrect. It's not that I don't *want*
to take your advice, it's that I don't *need* to take your advice. Your suggestion was based on an
incorrect assumption related to my kids' knowledge of internet privacy issues. You brought it
up, I responded. Again, that's called a conversation.


Well, for a guy who's not offended and not
concerned what I think, you sure ramble on
a lot. Have you considered just taking my
suggestion, and apologizing for wasting so
much of your and my time?

Yet another goal post shift. You're flailing

I make a simple and correct suggestion, and you

I bet you do this with other people in your life.
When your doctor tries to write you a prescription,
do you spend the next three days trying to get

I bet you do this with other people in your life.
When your doctor tries to write you a prescription,
do you spend the next three days trying to get
your doctor to admit that he's mistaken?

You sure appear to be defensive about some thing.
I've found that when a simple comment draws THIS
much rambling and diversion, there is some thing
under the surface. I hope you can figure out what.
I'm concerned for you.


Probably the fault of all the mail from Honda!

Yep, we went from Derby having a conversation
with his kids to Chris and his suggestion.


...to Chris not seeing that his suggestion doesn't
even apply to the situation because it is based on
an incorrect assumption.


The longer you try to prove there is no
connection, the more obvious it is that
you are troubled by some thing about your
kids posting without your observing.

Possibly, you, DD3, Trade4, Micky, MMacaw, and DonY should get together for OCD discussion? (I probably left out a few, sorry for that)

Thank you for your concern, however misplaced it is.

I hope you don't waste too much of your time being
concerned about something that doesn't exist.


It would have been so, so easy to end this several
posts ago.

So why didn't you? As soon as I pointed out your error, you could
have just said "OK, bye." Yet you keep implying that I have some
kind of issue because I keep responding to your posts.

You keep going on, which is evidence of
concern on your part.

Yes, I am concerned that you don't see the error in your
thinking. It seems to me that instead of admitting your error,
you just want to make sure you get the last word in.

Of course, you're the one who is going on. It
would have been easy for you to thank me for
my suggestion, and it would all have been over,
many posts ago.

And instead of politely doing so, you keep
dragging the matter out with goal post shifts,
and requests for apology. It should be clear to
all who read this, who is embarassed to admit
that he has family problems.

thinking that your suggestion even remotely applies
to my family situation.

Wrong, big dummy. WTF are you to instruct a father about "privacy"?
Derby was speaking about "personal privacy" with his children. A
right to be left alone. Had nothing to do with "online privacy".

You stepped into a turd pile.

How many children do you have? And. You are trying to psychoanalyze a
father of near grown children. Who are you to give advice on the
Internet, when you have no children?

Did you get your Psychology Degree on the Internet?

That's my rulin'

Thanks for the support, but odds are he won't get it.

He took a simple explanation of why I don't use Facebook and ballooned
it up to "an embarrassed father with family problems". I am blessed to
have 4 of the hardest working, well-rounded and polite kids I've ever
met. I couldn't be prouder of the adults they've become and I couldn't
be happier with the loving relationship I have with each of them.

Chris barked up the wrong tree.

Will your grandchildren be named "Derby"?

No, but I might have to change my handle to DerbyGramps, assuming
they get into Soap Box Derby racing. :-)

However, none of my kids are close to having children at this time (Hey
Chris: I'm OK with that) and the minimum age to race is 8. The DerbyDad03
handle is safe for quite awhile.

Funny photo, considering a message I recently sent to a friend.
