Why I'm not putting my kid on social media

Today, I'm answering a question from Anthea:"I notice you don't really put your daughter on social media and I was interested in the thinking behind that and what you feel about other parents who do it?"

Brave is the person who genuinely admits what they think of other parents 😂

But in this instance, even though I can't get myself comfy with posting my kid on social media, I'd happily watch videos of your kids all day!

Tiny humans are excellent content so I understand why people post about them but my lack of social media content is really just my way of ensuring I'll have a legitimate rebuttal for when my daughter eventually asks me for Instagram (or whatever platform is around when she's older).

That's right.

My approach to putting my kid social media is about planning for a conversation that's potentially ten years away.

Nothing weird about that, right?

This podcast was recorded on the lands of the Wangal people, of the Eora Nation.

I pay my respects to Elders past and present.
