Change your profile picture to raise awareness about child abuse!

Yet another facebook chain message is going around asking everyone to change their profile pictures in support of raising awareness against child abuse. Before I go off on a rant, I'll just keep it simple by saying I think it's another silly thing that does nothing to fight a very real and serious problem. Much like the "I like it" for breast cancer chain, this is not proactive, and virtually does nothing.

If I was not up to my ears in papers, projects, and exams, I'd probably be doing a post of my own about this, however one of my dear friends posted this blog on the issue, and his words speak much better than mine possibly could. Check it out and decide for yourself whether this is a worthwhile way to support the cause.
