8. Should We Post Our Kids Online? Exploring Child Consent, Safety and Digital Boundaries

Dela

This conversation explores one of the biggest questions modern parents face: Should we post our kids online? Rather than offering rules or easy answers, we unpack the nuance behind child privacy, consent, safety, and the evolving role of social media in family life.


Drawing from our own experiences—including navigating public platforms, motherhood, and raising toddlers in the digital age—we reflect on the responsibility of protecting our children's autonomy while also honoring our own need for connection, community, and authentic storytelling. From digital footprints to intuition, we explore what it means to parent consciously in a world that's changing faster than any generation before us.


Whether you're a parent who shares often, rarely posts, or is somewhere in between, we hope this conversation invites curiosity instead of judgment—and helps you think more intentionally about the boundaries that feel right for your family.


In this episode, we discuss:

  • Why one of us decided to stop sharing our child's face online
  • Child consent and respecting your child's future autonomy
  • Digital footprints and what we're creating for our kids before they can choose
  • Safety, privacy, and navigating the realities of social media
  • Fear vs. awareness when protecting our children
  • The role of intuition and discernment in parenting
  • Sharing our children as context vs. making them content
  • The impact of social media on family culture and parent-child trust
  • Statistics around parents posting their children online
  • Modeling a healthy relationship with technology for the next generation
  • Where social media culture may be heading in the future
