The Problem
New parents want to share precious moments with close family and friends but are terrified of photos ending up on public social media, being misused by AI, or shared without consent. They face constant boundary violations from well-meaning grandparents who post to Facebook, creating family tension. Current solutions force a choice between total privacy isolation or losing control of their children's digital footprint.

Opinions on sharing your kids on social media
Pre pregnancy & during my pregnancy I was always AGAINST posting kids on social media. For obvious reasons with how the world is & how weird people can be. That opinion got even stronger while I was pregnant and saw parents posting their kids, seeing how many people saved those videos, the disturbing comments the kinds of accounts commenting.. I wouldn’t want to expose my child online to what someone could possibly do w the content. Aside from that I did my pregnancy solo & am now a solo parent. My relationship w my family has been on/ off since I was a teenager but we’ve kept in touch and always kept trying to work things out. When I got pregnant I had a very cold reaction to my pregnancy it made me feel like they in a way rejected my baby already so I stopped going out of my way to reach out and just focused on me and my health & baby especially bc I had no partner to lean on and have that extra support. Bringing it back to the present time, my baby was born he’s a couple months old & I’ve had no contact from any friends or family. Few people here and there have reached out but really I know it’s just to see the baby not even ask how I am how baby is or even bother asking the baby’s name… I’m back on social media, I work with social media as well & part of me SOMETIMES really would love to post my baby, my baby is just so cute, looks like a freakin doll!! But the other part of me not only bc of weirdos (which sometimes I think, am I really that special that someone would do that to me? My kid? I don’t think so but wouldn’t want to take the chance?) but also bc NO ONEEE was there for me at all, not a call not a text nothing from anyone friends or family so part of me doesn’t even want to share anything about my baby for them to see. And again the other part of me wants to bc do those people even really matter end of the day? No f em I feel like this was a bit jibber jabber but I had to kind of give a backstory. If you were in my shoes, what would u do or not do? I see so many people post their kids and make fun and memorable content & it would be perfect for my social & UGC career but I don’t want to expose my kid and regret it? helllp me

Posting kids on the internet?
So I’m not for posting kids online but is there a safe way to share photos with close family and friends? Like I have a cousin who only posts photos of her baby on a close friends story in Insta. But I don’t want a social media platform having my photos. Is that way safe? Or are there any other ways?

New Dad - thoughts on posting online
Hi all. First time post first time dad here! 😊 Our daughter was born just over a week ago but during pregnancy we both strongly agreed no pictures or videos will be posted online or sent around to anyone but close family. A lot of people agree as we probably all know that the world is full of creeps and once online always online. I just wondered people's opinions as we have also had the 'dont be so awkward and silly, it's only Facebook for friends..' etc. We are sticking to it either way but wondered what people are choosing to do, and for the people that do post pics / vids on social media, how do you feel about it? Any worries?
