‘SHARENTING’ and your children’s rights to online privacy
Most of us take to social media to share stories, images and videos of our kids reaching milestones, achieving things we’re proud of, or sometimes just… existing. We do it because we’re proud parents and we want our friends and family to see how well they’re doing – after all, is it really so wrong to want to show off a little when it comes to how incredible our kids are?
Yet sharing information about our children is often more morally complex than simply expressing our pride and can result in a variety of unforeseen circumstances – some of them harmful to our kids’ emotional wellbeing and future success.
