Debating.

Steve and I were talking to one of our good friends last night, and he told us a couple things that got me kind of worried. I never really thought that weird-o's could be looking at our blog and see what's going on in our lives. So, I'm thinking we should make our blog private.
Is it really that creepy to not have it private? Or should I just leave it as is? I haven't had anyone that I didn't know write on our blog. And we don't have kids yet, so it's not as creepy...
I'm still just debating on if it's really worth going to the trouble of making it private. Anywho, shout out your input please if your reading this post. :)

I didn't make mine private until I had kids. It really creeped me out to know that some pervert could be looking at them! As long as you don't give out private info...where you live, work, etc...then I don't think you need to worry about it until kiddos come.

Im am debating on doing the same. It's just a pain. I have had a comment of two from people I have no clue who they are, and it really weirded me out. I think that when you get around to making it private that thats what you should do. No hurry. I need to do the same though.

I didn't go private until I had Caprie. I didn't want random people looking at my baby (you never know what they could do)!

I love all your great cooking ideas; they are always so good. Grandpa likes the new dinners also.

Hope you are doing well. Hope you received the Christmas present.
Love Grandma

I love being private. I have thought about unlocking it but I hate having to constantly think about what I am saying or what info I am giving out to the world. I love knowing just who is looking at my blog and it really isn't too much of a pain. Worth it, I think!

I guess it just depends on how much personal information you post. Ours is private.

I am definitely a fan of private. I feel so much better knowing exactly who is looking at our blog. We didn't make our blog private until we had Flint though. But I've heard A LOT of crazy things about it...we'll have to talk!

Honestly? My blogs were public till someone posted something mean. Then I switched to private. Then I discovered you can monitor comments made. And that it was a huge pain to invite people to have access to read the blog, making sure they clicked on the link, etc. It just became easier for me to keep in touch with everyone by having it public. So unless something else happens, I'll be keeping mine public. I don't post anything uber private, don't give out personal info, etc. Either way, good luck!

Tough call... I have always heard of people hearing stories, but I have never heard any of the actual stories before! Just try to be careful I guess.

Ive been thinking of going private when we have the baby but Im not too worried right now about being public. But it is up to you on how comfortable you feel with it.

Yeah, I definitely wanted mine private with my little man all over it...and it's honestly not a big deal for people to access it even if it is private. Anyway, I will definitely still read yours either way!!!

I like mine private, because I don't think everyone one needs to know what is going on in my life except for the people who I would like to share me life events with. :) It's really not that hard to go private, it just might take a little while to invite all your friends to your blog.
