I don’t disagree, but I feel the need to share a small bit of anecdata for perspective:
My kids often say, “this is so cool! Can you get a photo and share it with our friends online?”
Of course, anyone can take that last sentence, render it in their own context without the availability of any details to conclude that I’m a terrible parent. But that’s kind of my point: parenting is partly about making informed, nuanced decisions. You never have the information necessary to make an informed, nuanced criticism.
- chillbill 3y agoIt’s the responsibility of the parent to work on gathering their data. Not knowing any better is not the responsibility of the child, but the parent. I would accept this probably in the early days of social media, but there is mounting evidence now that parents who monetize their kids are doing it intentionally and willingly. It’s child abuse in my book.
