Navigating the Complexities and Consequences of Sharing Your Child's Life Online

Tara's Take - Parenting, Education & Life With Kids

14-08-2023 • 18 mins

What if your sharing about your child online could negatively impact their mental health later in life? In this episode we'll look at some of the possible implications of sharing your child's photos and personal information online.

We'll discuss the complexities of parents sharing childhood memories on the digital stage while acknowledging why it happens. Parenthood can be a lonely journey, and social media feels like it provides an avenue for connection, but at what cost?

Drawing from my early career interactions with teens worried about their online image, I'm reflecting on the ability of young children to provide consent for online sharing contrasted with a parent's desire to be connected to a community.

Join me in navigating the digital dilemmas of sharing about children in the online space.
