think before you post

Imagine an internet savvy father & son, both on the same social network. The 12 year old hates being told to do what's best for him (meaning: be careful with your postings, about your private data). The 12 year old actually is surprisingly careful: he seems to understand the issue ... him and his many friends all use the same kind of f***k-off attitude with regard to 'strangers' looking at their profiles. Which is a good thing. However, the internet savvy dad isn't convinced. So he sends his son a message saying something like: 'be careful here, my son'. Alas! the internet savvy dad does mention his name and profession on his own profile. I can't wait to point out to him that if anyone breached the son's privacy .... it was him.
