How honest should you be with your kids about your past?

[SpookyZalost]

Again, in this day and age it's rare to find people who don't have something about them online. The only ones who don't are the boomers who are, and I don't say this in a rude way, dying off. The younger generation, even people in their 50s and younger, are on social media in some form.

and yes. Kids will curiously stalk family online. Hell, I still stalk (I use this term loosely) my ex's FB out of curiosity from time to time.

0_o sounds like there's some lingering attachment there. However small.

It's more so out of curiosity for how she is doing.

Having to agree with @SpookyZalost here.

The two rules of parenting (according to me): Travel and tell the truth.

I do the same to my real father from time to time, who disowned me years ago when I was barely 15 years old. He has a Yahoo Flickr account that is public. Honestly, I don't know why I do it.
