Sharenting: Solving the Problem of Parents and Kids on Instagram
What happens when the heartfelt ambitions of parenthood meet the ubiquitous opportunities of social media? “Sharenting” happens any time an adult in charge of a child’s well-being, such as a parent or a teacher, transmits private details about a child via digital channels. The problem, of course, is that even though we may be the parent or guardian, kids are human. They’re vulnerable, and they know that a picture posted is now “out there” for anyone to see at any time in the future. The debate over “sharenting” remains: is it a right or is it a request we make of our kids? In this episode, Tim Elmore and Andrew McPeak discuss how to solve the problem of parents and kids on Instagram.
