never on twitter or linkedin or insta. some on FB (have lots of family around the world) where i very tightly control who i friend and within that who sees my pictures.
I only do on Instagram where I have a private account that I only permit family to see (not even friends). I want my kids to be able to control their online presence when they’re old enough to decide what they want of themselves out there. That’s impossible if I’ve slapped their face on every vase (and anywhere on the Internet).
I have always had a zero tolerance policy and have been quite rigid with it. I have found it more and more difficult to manage with family and friends who don’t have the same point of view. For example, family photos or my siblings taking photos of the kids (cousins) always make their way online. Anyone having similar challenges? How do you manage?
I don’t think having absolutely zero presence is realistic or worth worrying about. Your option is to not show up at places where pictures will be taken.
We use a family photo sharing app for our kids parents and siblings and that’s it
Private Instagram. Family photo sharing app.
Wife sometimes post pictures of the kids. Our accounts are not public, but we’re aware people could see them as friends of friends.
For the people that said zero tolerance are your kids near ages were they ask for their own phones?
No, my two children are 4 years & 10 months so they definitely do not have their own social media accounts.
My fear is what will others be doing with the data. For example:
Our first born came a few weeks early and we hadn’t yet had any discussions around social media guidelines. My wife posted a photo on Instagram the day she was born which included the location of the hospital, my wife’s maiden name (part of her Instagram name), and of course the date of birth (date it was posted). This pay be an extreme example but fear of the unknown 5, 10, 20 years from now is why I prefer a zero tolerance. Otherwise I find it hard to manage.
