I wanted to add to this thread that I did in fact become FB friends with a daycare parent, and the result was unpleasant. I said I'd never do it, but she got engaged and wanted to show me the pics; she mentioned that she'd add me that night so I could look.

Well, a couple of weeks later, my kids were away for the weekend, and dh and I decided to hit some pubs downtown. When the mother showed up on the Monday, I mentioned to her that I think I caught her daughter's cold. She said, "or it could be the result of all the beer you were drinking this weekend". Yipes. I changed settings so she can no longer see much of anything I post.

NEVER AGAIN.
