ANNOUNCEMENT
There have been a few folks who've expressed concern with one of the RBB fics that included older versions of the actors' children in its character line-up.

Actually, they can hide their children. No one forces them to do anything. There are musicians and other celebs who have kids I have actually never seen. In fact, I have trouble keeping their names straight sometimes because they are somehow kept out of the public eye. Good example? Jon Bon Jovi. For years, I didn't know how many kids he had or their names and had never seen a single picture of any of them. Even with the popularity of the internet, I still couldn't tell you much about them and didn't even see a pic of them until the last few years. I couldn't tell you what their middle names are. I've never even heard them speak. And he's been my favorite singer for 30 years. It can be done. I'm not saying that J2 and Misha deserve to have lurid fics written about their children because they post many pictures and videos of them on the 'net. I'm just saying that fics are bound to happen when we are let into their lives as much as we are.

I don't understand why this is an issue. This could describe a large amount of the comms that host SPN fanfic period.
