Jesus Christ, can't even film your kids have a happy moment without offending some 20 something year old snowflake, who thinks we want their parenting advice.
Parenting advice from childless young people is like marriage advice from a priest
No one is saying not film your kids, its more about the sharing of said films online to public forms.
Sending a embarassing video grandpa is one thing, but posting it for the whole internet to see is just a breach of privacy. Strangers, aunts, and schoolmates don't really needs to watch little Billy public meltdown, Sally slipping into the pool, or a public review of Jonny's report card and his punishment.
There's espessially creepy ones too, I'm sure you could find things along the vien of "having the talk with Billy" or "Sally shopping for feminine products for the first time" if you looked. There are moments that simply should not be recorded. Those "family vlog" channels are some of the worst offenders.
We spend all our efforts telling kids not post pictures of themselves online or share too much personal information, yet today's 15-20 year olds are finding pretty much their entire life catologed publicly on Facebook by other people,
Having that "life catolog" is cool, but the fact its publicly avalible to anyone is the creepy part.
We advocate for a child's right to their online privacy. Let them to be the ones who choose what is and is not available for the world to see.
