Well, its nice that you don't have a twisted mind, and you can't conceive what someone might wants pics of a child for, but unfortunately there are sick individuals that would want pictures of children, and anyone with internet common sense knows that you don't ask for pictures of kids on an open forum. You can't afford to be naive about things like this, the way the world is nowadays.

To the original poster, please don't expect us to send pictures of our kids to strangers. You could be ANYONE. We have no proof you are who you say you are, thanks to the anonimity that the internet gives.

Good luck with your research

Riley, I hope this person is genuine...but for all we know its a paedophile collecting pictures and while that may not result in your own child being harmed (although it is possible to track you down from the information being requested for someone with the right knowledge) it may well end up with someone elses child being harmed. There is no mention of which magazine and therefore no way of checking if this request is genuine. From the post there is no way to guarentee where the pictures would go.

And apologies to the poster if it is genuine but frankly only someone who wasn't would object to a parent ensuring there childs safety.
