Facebook and Child

"Cuteness Overloaded", I watched a nude photo of a 1 or 2-year-old girl on my Facebook newsfeed and was stunned for two minutes. In fact, there was no such thing as a different one.  Because the little gang is moving in such a state of unconsciousness at home and everyone feels very appreciated.  But I was thinking about how fair it was to post that innocent child on social media.

At present, people have taken this message very seriously, "Write something here" and they keep on posting anything.  Especially I have found child photograph's many times.  In this regard, when I was searching for information on the internet, I found that 1500 photos on an average parent upload to their social sites until the age of 5 years of the child. And in that Facebook is very ahead and then there is an Instagram.  In fact, Facebook is a very useful tool for conveying your thoughts or your personal, professional information to the masses. I always like to reach out to my loved ones or friends, but as my medium is open for everyone, Is it ok to upload information there? We have to ask ourselves this question.  

I had once suggested my friend by seeing such a photo of his child, and I got expected answer from him, "I have set this to be seen by friends who are in my friend list". That friend is a tech-savvy person.   Its understood that this setting will allow Facebook to show this information to your friends only, but do you really have all your friends in your friend list who are known to you? Have you verified them before adding them to your friend list?

Apart from this, all of us do not know an unwritten rule of social networks, or we may forget that, if you post anything online, even though you have privacy settings, you never know how that will proceed further.  You will not have control over it.  And besides, as per terms and conditions from facebook agreed by you, your contents can be used by Facebook for its interest.   In fact, Facebook and Google now know you better than yourself. I will focus on that topic in any of my next articles.

The person's permission is necessary to use or upload any photo of him. But, because of being so small and playing the role of motherhood, all of us do it under curiosity. In a country like France, this type of action considered as crime and person has to pay the penalty of huge amount.

Be sure to think about the following, before uploading anything about your child on social media : 

1. Do you really need to upload this information? If you really want to give this information to close relatives then why not email them?

2. Many of your smartphones, unknowingly, store information about the location captured with photos in that image. While sharing such photos, are you sure that it is safe and secure when you share information about your private locations on the social media?

3. Currently, Child Pornography is very dangerous crime happening all over the world.  Are you inviting that with your child photo?

4. I am uploading this information today and when my son / daughter be at a particular age, will he/she be happy to see that or feel humiliated? Will he have some trouble with that information?

I have covered many of these things in my previous articles. Because I had asked one question about this, I thought it necessary to write this article. It's not compulsory that whatever I have mentioned will happen and even not compulsory that it may not happen.  Therefore, it is your choice how to use social media.   I just wanted to make sure that, all my close friends like you might know about the hacks in this case.
