Should You Post Your Kids Online for Views?Social media rewards authenticity, and for parents who create content, family life often gets the most attention. But when posting your children leads to more views, followers, brand deals and money, where should you draw the line?In this episode of the 3L Podcast, Emmanuel and Miriam discuss the reality of sharing your children online. As parents and content creators, we have faced this question ourselves. Miriam knows motherhood content performs well, but the risks around privacy, bullying, unwanted attention and AI raise serious concerns.We also discuss consent. Children grow up, opinions change, and something a parent posts today might become something their child wishes had never been shared.Then comes this week's dilemma. A content creator built her account to 42,000 followers without featuring her children. After posting her daughter, engagement exploded. One bath-time video reached 200,000 views and brought brand enquiries. Her following grew to 61,000. The problem? Her husband had already set a boundary about showing their daughter's face, and he felt she was starting to view private family moments through the lens of content.Main points:• Should parents post their children online?• Are followers and brand deals worth the privacy risk?• When does family content become exploitation?• Should both parents agree before posting their child?• How much say should children have over their digital footprint?• Are some family moments too private for social media?Where do you draw the line?
