After I read your post I did the same thing. Took me all of 5 minutes to know her name, age, address and more. That was done through a simple Google search.
It shouldn't pose a problem usually but people need to be careful how much personal info they share on any site if they really want to be anonymous. But honestly... our days of anonymity are pretty much over I think.
Speed, you may be able to have the posts that gave clues to your personal identity deleted.
I'm sorry you had to go through this and I'm sorry for the loss of your son

OP, I found you from information you posted in one of your threads. I'll pm you the specifics of that so others don't repeat my process. But... Just know that it's a lot easier to find people than one might think.
