It's pretty apparent the things that a kid would be embarrassed about are not the same thing I as an adult would be embarrassed about. I'm 20+ years removed from those events in my life where these kids aren't. To them this is recent memory and more importantly still stuff they will get made fun of for. How many people do you know who carried a nickname all throughout middle and high school from one dumb thing they did when they were 8? I know some who still have the dumb nickname 20-30 years after the fact.
This isn't child abuse by any means but it's just incredibly dumb on the parts of the adults around them. By writing/posting about kids you make them public figures and open them up to all the abuse anyone on the internet wants to heap on them. And this is all happening at a time when they are going through painfully awkward transitions and just starting to discover who they are and want to be.
There are absolutely going to be lawsuits about this sooner than you'd think.
