Age restrictions for some of the world's most popular social media sites. Are 13 year olds truly mature enough to have proper Netiquette (to use ASU lingo)? Are they old enough to make decisions and post things that'll be on the internet forever?...

The ethics of putting children online...
I grew up on social media. I got my first Facebook account at 10 to chat with my family, got Snapchat when it came out when I was 11 or 12, and I have a digital footprint for the ages at just 22. That's also not counting the hundreds of thousands of times I've appeared in other people's social medias either.
I wasn't part of a family vlogging channel and I didn't grow up with a camera shoved in my face all the time, I didn't have my mom posting a video about getting my first period or going shopping for bras for literally millions of people to see.
Still, the fact that so much information about me, from pictures to what my interests were is part of the wider internet and simply not possible to wipe... creeps me out.
So what are the ethics of putting minors online? It's no secret that the internet is a scary place, filled with potential predators and anonymous people looking for the vulnerable to exploit.
It's nothing against my parents or any other parents of my generation either; like everyone, they were eager and excited for the opportunities and capabilities of newer technology. The idea that catfishing was a thing, or kids potentially being groomed through something as benign as an online game, was the furthest thing from anyone's mind.
They didn't know any better. But we do.
Online grooming is at the highest it's been, cyber bullying and harassment a factor too. When we know that predators use social media as their play ground, why are we making content of our kids more accessible? Why are we putting them on the internet in ways that they might not want, in irreversible ways, without informed consent?
Child exploitation online is a real threat, and kids deserve to grow up safely and privately. I don't have the answers to these questions, or a legislative agenda to throw at it, this is all just food for thought, and something that's been on my mind for a while now. Maybe this will help you reflect too...
Adding to my link post and possibly my text post with this one. Not everyone is a family vlogger but every adult can take this and reflect on what having an online presence (of any follower count) means for their kids (or future kids).
âTalking about victimization doesnât end victimization,â she said. âWe need people to intervene. We need whistle-blowers. Parents need to be great role models. Ask your school, church, civic organizations and youth sports clubs to be proactive. Walk the walk in your own home.â
Parenting influencers are now more self-aware, claiming to ârespectâ their childrenâs âboundariesâ. But this type of content can never be et
An interesting and thought provoking article about the ethics of putting your children on social medias in an online environment that's increasingly scary. Is it exploitative or wrong to put them online when they can't consent? Does their privacy deserve protection from their own parents?
