My soon to be ex-Dh's girlfriend keeps posting pics of my kids on Facebook. Can I stop it?

But she does have permission from a parent.

This is such a minor thing, save your energy for something that is negatively impacting the kids, not just annoying you.

I completely feel for you, please contact your attorney. I agree with your stance on social media and I also do not post photos of our child on fb. DH is in agreement with me and this has been our policy since she arrived.

Before you filed for divorce, did he share your view on sharing pictures of the kids? Can you prove that you had a limited fb presence for your children and now they are splashed all over the place?
Good luck

This, though technically she probably can if she took the picture.

Ok so OP, this is super irritating. I'd be really annoyed!

But can we try to see this from another angle really quickly? This woman is in your kid's lives whether you like it or not. And she is showing affection for your children by posting their picture. I know it's not your ideal way to show this, but if you zoom out a little, it shows some good intentions. She loves them and wants to brag about them to her own friends! This is one good step towards being a decent step-mother.

I know this isn't the whole picture of what's happening in your life with your ex and this woman. But for your kids, strain to see the good in her.

If your ex is so difficult, this might be the least of your worries. Save your time and energy for providing the most loving and safe home for your kids.

Have you tried talking to him? He may genuinely not realize this is bothering you. I would start there. Express your concerns and exactly why you are concerned and maybe he'll ask her to dial it back. Because it is absolutely his place to ask her. If she doesn't have kids of her own, she may not realize why anyone would be concerned.

But then you could copy protect their name and images. And report every post to Facebook as enfringment

You could also snoop on her fbook and ask key people what the deal is with her home wrecking.

Just ask her nicely to limit the photos that she posts. People talking about a lawyer are insane and live in another world like uranus. If I hired a lawyer for every little conflict in my life I would be miserable and broke!

Why are you on your almost ex-husband's girlfriend's facebook page?

Petty nonsense
Get your feelings under control

OP what did you end up doing?

This is so petty and clearly an issue of control. Do you keep YOUR friends or family from posting any pics that include your children? Of course not. You're just irritated because it's his gf. You need to realize that this is one of many things that you have no control over.

I feel for you! My husband's aunt posts on public setting, photos of my kids ALL. THE. TIME. I cannot ask her not to because she is an unreasonable, raging alcoholic who will turn the request into WWIII. So I just miserably complain to myself.

Ask your dh to tell her she needs to stop for privacy reasons. If they refuse the court will enforce it.

Her child's father has the same rights. Presumably he gave the GF permission to take and post photos.
