Should children be on Instagram?

In the age of social media, more and more parents are documenting their children’s lives online, from their first steps to their successes at school. However, this trend, known as sharenting, is raising more and more questions: where does sharing joy end and violating a child’s privacy begin?

Some parents post photos and videos almost daily, treating social media as a virtual family album. Others are more cautious, wondering who is really viewing this content and what the consequences might be in the future. Experts point out that nothing disappears from the internet, even an innocent photo can end up in undesirable places.
