To post or not to post: kids’ privacy and parents’ social media

February 01, 2022

 The internet was made for posts about cats and kids. But it’s also a massive network storing information about all of us — including kids. How should we think about kids’ privacy online? How do we respect children’s autonomy and help them develop skills to navigate a networked world, while still sharing the most important aspects of our own lives? Listen in as we talk to parents and privacy expert Dr. Michael Robb of Common Sense Media to discuss:

●     How kids feel about their parents’ social posts

●     Digital “kidnapping,” medical privacy, and other big concerns

●     Tools for negotiating what to post and what not to post
