Facebook is now letting giddy parents add a new status to their Facebook called Expecting a Baby. I personally do not use Facebook for a whole host of reasons, but there are many people out there that do. This post is for those people.
The idea of letting people know where you are in the world at any given time doesn't seem like the wisest of options to me. Orlando Bloom, Megan Fox, Paris Hilton and other stars were set upon by thieves back in 2009 that used the Internet in combination with their online status to figure out when the best time was to rob their homes.
Now this brings up the new and creepy option of letting people know if you are expecting a baby, the gender, the due date and location. The information is voluntary (so is using Facebook BTW), and I would recommend you dont' put any of this information out there. There are too many disturbed people in this world to let them know when and where you are having a baby. That information can only lead to bad things in my opinion.

You can find more detail at the following link at Forbes. As always, try to stay safe on the Internet for you and your kids sake, and when in doubt, don't put personal information on the Internet for 7 billion people to see.
