Daily Coronavirus Check-in: Is it a violation to share our children’s pictures on social without their permission?
Sharing children’s pictures on social is something everyone has an opinion on, and before I had my first child, my husband was pretty vocal about us not showing pictures once the baby arrived. I’ll be honest, I didn’t get it. But I decided that if he was that passionate about it,then, of course, I wouldn’t do it, but I wasn’t quite sure why it meant so much. In time my husband changed his mind and now we both put up photos but I didn’t get his initial issue… Recently I posted a pic with my youngest sitting in the pram, with two fingers firmly shoved up his nose, joking that he wasn’t destined to be an astrophysicist. One person asked me about my son’s rights in this situation. Was it fair to not only post pictures of him when he’s too young to say he’s ok with it, but pictures that show him in an unflattering light?
