I think the point is to give your child the right to choose what (if any) they want to share at an age when they are old enough to responsibly make that decision herself, and not forcibly thrust into it before she could even talk, or walk.
- zhemao 13y agoI think we all understand that part (the "no posting pictures of our kid" part). It's just that many of us (myself included), don't understand the purpose of creating a bunch of social networking accounts for her at birth. Wouldn't it be better to let her create her own accounts when she's older? I mean, maybe she would rather have a different email address or Twitter handle. I think she should be allowed to discover the internet on her own terms, with some guidance from Mom and Dad, instead of being handed the keys to an "internet trust fund".
