Parent Tips: A Guide to Responsible Sharing of Your Kids’ Photos
31/08/2023We’ve proudly partnered with Safe on Social this year and asked Founder and CEO, Kirra Pendergast, to share some tips on a topic that she is seeing a lot of conversation about right now: sharing photos of your children online.
We’re all familiar with the overwhelming urge to share photos of those heart-melting or proud moments of our children online. But wait a minute! Before you rush to hit that “post” button, let’s pause and have a real talk about the social media risks that often slip our minds.
By exercising caution, respecting privacy permissions, and safeguarding against potential risks, we can strike a balance between sharing our children’s moments and protecting their privacy. Ultimately, as parents, we have the power to shape their online presence and create a safe online environment for them.
Topics covered in Guide below include:
- Consider their cybersecurity
- Communicate and Establish Family Rules
- Explore your motivations
- Respecting their privacy
- But what if a school shares their photo online?
- If in Doubt, Leave it Out
