086: Sharenting: Why I Stopped Showing My Son's Face Online
I'm back from an almost 2-month long hiatus from posting on social media, and kicking things off with a topic that's been on my heart to bring to the show for years! As a mother who also happens to have a company that resides in this AI-driven, and ever-changing digital space, my stance on showing my son's face online has changed drastically over the years. Many of you have watched a lot of big pieces of our lives happen over the years, but with how things have evolved technology-wise, I have found myself with a strong desire for more privacy. I've also contemplated how my stance on the necessity of personal autonomy is reflected through my choices on whether to share or not share my son's name and face in the online space. I don't claim to have things all figured out in life (none of us do!) I'm simply sharing my personal thought process as an imperfect mom who wants to do right by her kid, and who holds a strong desire to ensure his safety and freedom to choose how he presents himself in the digital world (when he is old enough to actually understand the implications of putting pieces of himself out there to begin with!). In the end, we're all just doing the best we can with the information and understand we have. Please know that I love and respect you, regardless of whether our thoughts on this topic align or not. Diversity of thought is what makes the world go round. Don't forget to check out the show notes for this episode (especially the video I mention by "Jose Monkey"!) over at www.wellandfree.io/blog/086. Enjoy!
In great health,
Michelle
