Should I Post Photos of My Child on Social Media?
Parents, Here's Why Consent Matters When It Comes to Posting Photos of Your Kids on Social Media
3
In a "no means no society," where we're teaching our children to give and respect boundaries with their peers, how does it come across when their own parent blatantly disregards an easy limit they put in place? While we don't propose letting your kids make their own rules for everything, letting them know that their voice matters is very important.
The bottom line? Although it might be hard to swallow, giving your kids the room to say no is a good thing, especially when social media is involved. Regardless of your privacy settings, if your 10-year-old doesn't want a certain picture floating around Facebook, that's his or her right. Period!
