Yeah, we get it, your kid is cute and it is an extension of you to put all your failed dreams into or whatever. But how would you feel if every moment of your life, from your ultra sound to losing your first tooth, was put on social media? I feel like there needs to be laws against this shit. The same people who complain about circumcising children because they are too young to give consent are the same people who post pictures of their young children on social media CONSTANTLY. You are giving away your child’s privacy for likes and follows. Stop it. Let your kid make their own decisions when they can actually consent to it.

Not only for privacy sake, but for safety sake against internet predators too.
Very sad. Some pictures you can tell the kids are sick of their parent’s shit. Some kids will be able to go back on almost any given day and know exactly what they did for their entire life… scary.
“an extension of you to put all your failed dreams into” George Carlin calls it “child worship”. For a good laugh: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h6wOt2iXdc…
