What are moms doing about posting their kids’ faces on social media?
I saw this image on Facebook late last night and I’m having a hard time deciding whether I want to obscure my child’s face when I post photos of her on social media. My social media is really locked down, same with my husband’s. And I have thought about other considerations too, like the fact that there are surveillance cameras everywhere and there will be public images of her accessible anyway, especially if we travel. Then there’s the issue of electronic ID for kids that’s being implemented in the UK that I feel would make censoring my kid’s images hard to police. But then there’s also the thought that the school photo company in the states was named in the Epstein files, and that was before the internet. Plus, Grok is now making CP on X. I just don’t know how I feel about it because it seems inevitable. What are you all doing with regard to photos and online presence?

Minimal online presence. I'll post a pic of me with her but with an emoji over her face or the back of her head showing. Aside from anything else, that's her image and we want to try to respect that by not having her all over the internet without her understanding or consent. My husband works with computers, it's something I hadn't put much thought into really but I'm glad I listened to his opinions because the more I know, the more it concerns me. I don't judge anyone else for sharing pics, it's not my business. But this is the choice we've made for our daughter until she's ready to make her own choices.
