Privacy Issues - Childhood Disabilities
http://www.bellaonline.com/articles/art176616.asp
The availability of a national and even a world-wide audience for sharing information, experiences and support for parents of children and teens with childhood disabilities has caused concern over privacy issues that may negatively impact individuals with disabilities or developmental delays.

Getting together with family and friends over the holidays may mean that we are more sensitive to family members sharing personal secrets and other intrusions on privacy. It isn't always helpful to have our most private moments exposed, either.
