I don't know about you, but when the warning went out a few weeks ago that everything you have ever plugged into Google could soon be fair game for advertisers, I got a little worried. I am a good girl, I swear! But ever since I became a mother, I've found my Google searches have been a little . . . odd.
It's both the blessing and the curse of being a parent in the digital age. When we asked bizarre questions, our parents told us to go read an encyclopedia or better yet, go play in traffic. But when our kid asks or even does something that's just a little off, we can't help ourselves. I mean, the Internet is right there, it would hurt to look, would it?
Well, that depends, does your Google search history look anything like this pile of bizarre entries from parents around the states?
