How to Talk to Your Family and Friends About Not Posting Photos of Your Kids

You’re a parent, and you’ve decided publicly posting your baby‘s face on the internet is just not for you. You’ve got a handle on how to actually protect your baby’s photos on the internet (perhaps because you’ve read our guide!). Now it’s just a matter of doing it.

But wait. Minutes after your friends come meet your baby for the first time, they post a picture on Instagram. There’s no emoji covering your child’s face, and it’s visible to all their friends, or worse, everyone on the internet. It’s not your friend’s fault! They’re over the moon for you and got lost in the excitement.

To make this a bit easier on you, we’ve polled some folks, including experts and parents, on how to handle it.
