Today, my mom gave me and my brothers each a cd of her recent photoshoot for her book. I found out later that my mom didn't know how to burn only SOME of the photos on the CD, and ended up burning all of the photos onto the CD. Some of the photos were provocative. FML

That's terrible! I hope you have some of them digitally backed up because in the future there won't be a lot of childhood photos she can look upon!

WHAT?! Babies are supposed to be fat and (adorably) weird-looking! But yeah, I'd have a chat with her if she's THAT image-conscious.

I'd keep my eye on her to see if she develops an eating disorder.
