Summary

In this solo episode, I dive into the ongoing conversation around sharing children on social media. I discuss how Joe and I navigate sharing Liam now, how that has evolved over time, and how it might change as he gets older. I also unpack the feeling of being out of control of your child’s image, feeling exploitative of your child, and recent experiences that have shifted the way I view this topic. Finally, I share listener comments and questions about my process with protecting Liam’s privacy, how others feel about publicly sharing their children, and how to set boundaries with your family on sharing your child.

Key Takeaway / Points:

How Joe and I have navigated sharing Liam on social media
Feeling weird about recognizing influencers’ children in public
On being the first generation of parents on social media
On feeling out of control of your child’s image
Sharing listener polls on comfort with sharing children
On considering future implications on your child’s mental health
On feeling exploitative of your child
Answering listener questions on my process with protecting Liam’s privacy, how others feel about sharing their children, and setting boundaries with your family members on sharing your child.

0:11.9	I get a lot of questions on it. I have a decent amount of thoughts on it.
0:15.7	I think it's an ever-changing conversation.
0:18.3	And really, I think it's such a new topic as we're the first generation to kind of navigate it,
0:24.1	that I do think it's going to continue to be more and more of something that is discussed.

0:59.9	I don't know what the actual correct right way to do things is. I don't know if there's one
