We share a lot on social media, making sure to let our online ‘friends’ know (sometimes a little too much) about what’s going on in our lives. Often our kids get roped in to our online world as well: announcing Mom’s pregnancy, posting Insta-stories of swaddling babies, kids doing the latest dance moves or modelling their fashion looks, even those cute pics of our children in the bath.
With the plethora of family-centric content (that tends to get a lot of ‘likes’), there’s pressure on parents to know how much privacy they should give their children. Will you share every waking moment of your child’s life and become a blogger for thousands of strangers to view? Or can you leave sharing to a minimum? And how do you keep your kids safe in a digitally dominated society?
