Thanks to Char, IGSI's Facebook editor, for sharing a thought-provoking blog posting in which Genealogybank advises us to consider the impact our actions have on others.

I recommend you read the entire article, but here are the main points:

• Not Everyone Should Be in Your Tree
• Everyone Deserves to Make an Informed Decision
• Some Secrets Should Remain Secrets
• Black Sheep are Fun But at What Price?
• Genealogy Ethics -- keep in mind the feelings of the living
