I uploaded my family tree to this site (to its old program) several years ago. To my amazement I could not find myself now. I am told to start a new family tree in which I will be assigned a new ID. Then add my deceased parent(s) to the tree, my ancestors will automatically be added. It works! yeah!
The problem that my mother was then alive but now deceased. I could not find her either. I have to create a new ID for her and then input all other info to my immediate family.
I am now able to upload all photos, documents and stories for myself and my parents. But because I am the only one can see myself on this site. After I die my family tree will be gone.
Yes, my children can create a family tree for their own (individually) in which each of them will have new IDs for me and for themselves. But that will be different IDs which they input info separately to their individual tree. Neither one will have any info that I uploaded to myself.

In summary, I would recommend Family Search to a friend.
