@[email protected] @[email protected] #genchat As someone who is still "the secret" to some in my family, I ask you to consider that the need that some feel for these secrets is rooted in shame & this kind of shame is quite unhealthy for everyone involved. Of course, I'm not proposing that no care should be taken or that anyone should be deliberately outed via a public family tree. But I do think that #genealogists should be concerned with truthfulness in their documentation & shouldn't perpetuate misinformation.
