Elysiana:
I was the last of five children, but I came along 10 years after my next closest sibling... I sometimes think there are more pics of me than there are of all my siblings combined.
Akima:
"Memorializing the achievements of individuals considered as members of families (as well as of other groups) is the earliest popular use of photography. For at least a century, the wedding photograph has been as much a part of the ceremony as the prescribed verbal formulas. Cameras go with family life. According to a sociological study done in France, most households have a camera, but a household with children is twice as likely to have at least one camera as a household in which there are no children. Not to take pictures of one's children, particularly when they are small, is a sign of parental indifference, just as not turning up for one's graduation picture is a gesture of adolescent rebellion." On Photography, Susan Sontag, 1977.*
Or in other words, if your parents have lots of embarrassing photos of you as a little kid, think yourself fortunate. They thought you were special!
*Still very much worth reading, incidentally. Sontag's total lack of interest in the technicalities of photography means that it mostly hasn't dated with the changes since the 1970s (Though I will go on using my Nikon FM2 until they stop making 35mm film. Why do modern DSLRs have to be so bloated?).

Ahhhhaha. This reminds me of my poor sod, best friend, who bravely told me his childhood story which I will share.
He was probably under 5 years old or so, and managed to get into his mother's bedroom. Ever the curious cat, he picked up a dildo and was fascinated by it. It vibrates, and rocks around to his amusement, but to this day, God why did he do it... he still doesn't know, as for some strange instinct he actually put the dildo in his mouth like a baby would with toys. At that moment his mother came into the room, looking down upon his son with a dildo in the mouth and shrieked......
(P.S. He is now happily married with beautiful wife and a son, and most likely doesn't have any dildos in the house to avoid repeating the unfortunate incident.)
(P.S.S. Oh Hi everyone :-D )
DonInKansas:
Now I'm wondering when Dino-Marten makes a guest appearance in Dinosaur Comics.

Excellent first post there. Welcome here; if that was any indication I think you'll fit in just fine.
