They talk about vacation plans, little league schedules, doctors appointments, etc. Recently my adult daughter posted a flag football schedule on a social media site. Not only was she revealing when she wouldn't be home, she was also telling others when I would not be home while I was at the game. There's so much to consider here. I'm constantly warning people of the dangers of these practices. It's fun to be in touch, however, think of such "here's where I'll be" information as if you were in a public place. You'd never behave like this in a real world crowd. So, why behave like this in a digital crowd. If ya wanna tell people where you are use the phone. Much more secure. Thanks for the article People have NO idea how dangerous it is to post when they are NOT going to be home or where they’ll be at any given time.
