Your baby could be in danger

The National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) has warned parents about taking naked pictures of the children.

Parent24
reported that the NPA will consider the posting of naked child pictures to be pornography.

If you share or post a naked picture of a child on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram or any other social network, you can be charged with a criminal offense. 

We asked our readers what their thoughts are on this warning issued by the NPA; if they think uploading pictures of naked children on social media is wrong.

This is what they had to say:

Starrene:
There are sick individuals who collect pics no matter how innocent)of naked kids or evn semi naked kids, photoshop them and use them for there own sick games. Trust me I deal with this a lot so be careful!

Landa: For all the above reasons, totally inappropriate and just wrong.

Stephanie: The intention is innocent, unfortunately in this day and age people are so corrupted that all nude exposure, no matter how old, has to be frowned upon and the measures extreme to prevent such innocence being corrupted.

Fly: Of course its Wrong! Even before the so called NPA realised that...#It took em too long.

Brigitta: I upload pics of my kids all the time, yes they are fully clothed, sometimes in their bathers but really sad that some people have such sick minds.

Tanya: Yes, I think it's wrong - as per other comments, there are far too many people who wouldn't see the innocence, because of their own distorted minds.
