Parents Posting Intimate Details About Their Children Online to Collect Praise for Themselves Are Narcissists, Experts Say

Health experts are warning parents not to excessively share details about their children on social media, cautioning that doing so can have long-lasting effects on their mental health.
According to an article by the Cleveland Clinic, "sharenting" refers to "the act of digital oversharing, of excessively posting information, pictures, stories or updates about your child's life."
Examples of sharenting include publicizing private milestones in a child's life, such as finishing potty training or a girl's first period. Posting about a mistake a child made or an injury could also be humiliating for children.
Even more innocent posts like sharing a child's positive report card can hurt self-esteem, Cleveland Clinic psychologist Dr. Susan Albers said.
"Sometimes, parents unknowingly create pressure on their kids by crafting an idealized image online of who their child is," she explained. "That can lead to dips in self-esteem and self-worth."
Albers added that even if a parent's post has positive intentions, the act of oversharing details about a child's life "comes with a lot of gray areas."
"Sharenting comes with lots of gray areas regarding a child's privacy, autonomy, protection and right to informed consent," Albers said. "Some countries have put regulations in place to ensure parents are sharing safely.
"But we don't have many laws in the U.S. that protect children online. Everyone has to figure out for themselves when their social media use crosses a line."
The full effects of sharenting have yet to be seen, but experts caution that the mental health issues it causes have begun to be observed in teenagers. Albers cited her teenage patients mentioning their parents' digital behavior in counseling sessions.

"Teenagers, in particular, bring it up because their parents are sharing information they're uncomfortable with," she said.
"We need to understand the long-term emotional impact sharenting may have on children -- impacts that we cannot see or fathom yet because they haven't been researched," she added.
What do you think? Be the first to comment.
Fox News medical contributor Dr. Marc Siegel echoed Albers' concerns in an interview Wednesday. He said sharenting can emerge when parents "obsess" over their social media engagement and try posting more and more personal information to get a reaction.
"Keep in mind that kids are already subject to ostracization, marginalization and feelings of loneliness and isolation because of how they are treated or bullied on social media," he explained. "Multiple studies have shown that this leads to worsening anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and even suicidal thoughts in a majority of teen girls.
"The last thing our kids need is their parents throwing gasoline on the flames through what is essentially exploitative treatment of their kids, whether it is intended or not."

I wonder what these experts will discover when they begin examining whether or not it's a great idea to take an 11-year-old's TikTok delusion that she's a transgender cat as an authoritative medical diagnosis.

England has bothered to commission an expert review of the evidence, while the craven, murderous American medical establishment continues lying children into amputations for fear of being cancelled by lunatics on Twitter.

England has halted the use of puberty blockers for "transgender youth."

That headline rather assumes facts not in evidence, no?

England's National Health Service has banned the use of puberty blockers for the treatment of gender dysphoria or gender incongruence in transgender minors.
The NHS has not stated it will restrict puberty blockers for non-transgender children and young people.
An NHS spokesperson told ABC News the agency hopes to have a study into the use of puberty blockers in place by December of this year, with eligibility criteria yet to be decided.
The agency said it made the move after considering an evidence review conducted by England's National Institute for Health and Care Excellence.

John Sexton says this is actually new news; while it was already reported that the NHS would suspend gender mutilation "therapies," the new ban applies to private gender-blender doctors as well.

I don't think my mother would have over-shared about me or my brother. She was a pretty private person. I say "I don't think," because that private-ness went pretty far and concealed some stuff from us kids that I only recently found out about.

She passed away in '86, so I can't ask.

A few years ago, a guy did a whole thing on how the algorithm could be used, to go from one "innocent" picture of a child in a bathing suit or leotard, and with a few clicks, you were into the deeper, darker realm of actual kiddie pron.

Youtube was less able to do this than Twatter, but with Youtube, people would take your vids of the kids on stage, at play, wherever, and crop and zoom in on crotches.

Or someone in the comments section would post time stamps, when the child was in a particularly provocative pose. Then it turns out the guy who made the video was a perv himself.

Such is the internet.

83 What would we do without experts?
++++
Potentially reach independent conclusions outside of their frame. Make fun of the "experts" all you want, but they get to set the narrative.

The expert says, "parents who divulge lots information about their kids on social media might be doing harm" and that becomes the frame of the discussion. Part of that discussion will be, "yeah, no shit" but the important part of it is that the discussion remains bounded within that context.

Many people reading this story will readily agree with the conclusion because it's obvious and confirms what people already know even if they didn't consider it - but how many will break out of the framing and ask, "is social media itself bad for kids" or "is social media boasting and recrimination bad even if it doesn't involve children, and should grown-ups moderate their social media posting about themselves and others because these same phenomena can happen with non-children?"

"Sharenting" is not the problem. Social media clout-chasing, ersatz communication and usage addiction underlies the phenomenon. But the cute new buzzword keeps the real questions from being asked by redirecting them.

My husband gathered an egg that was almost ready to hatch and I boiled it and peeled it. I was so disgusted. I could not imagine eating that. I'm still making the disgusted face just thinking about it. We mark the eggs now. The hens will steal the other hens eggs and sit on them.

The concept of the cemetery itself was meant to be a park, where people could recreate and commune with the dead.

This was done in part due to concerns that dead bodies were carrying infectious material, so having them buried under the church was thought to be a health hazard.

Peak Stupid is purely theoretical and in practical terms does not exist.

Stupid can increase up to the point of extinction. Peak Stupid, when it is achieved, will coincide with the end of the species and as a result, there will be no survivors to pinpoint when Peak Stupid occurred.

There can be local peaks coinciding with, for example, the collapse of a civilization - but that local peak is not the ultimate peak. The ultimate peak is achievable but nobody will know it when it happens.

Paul pointed out while speaking with former special counsel Ken Starr that 60 court cases involving voter fraud claims in the election were thrown out for procedural reasons, which Starr agreed with, saying that the “vast majority” were thrown out for procedural reasons rather than merit.

The quotes are much appreciated, Ace. Instead of this tolerance and eye rolling placation. We should be, point blank, addressing the primary issue. That issue is that "transgender" does not exist. There are males, females, and East German women's shotputters. Trans-pretenders are a farce. The "I'm a Little Teapot" song is not to be taken literally.
Carry on.

Now sort all your old bags of nails and put them in glass jars so you can see them.

Yes. Yak poop. I can't tell you why but yaks do not smell nor does their poop. There is a herd near us and we visit all the time. You can smell the chicken shit but not the yak poop.

P.S. - Yaks are like big dogs - they will let you give them tummy sritches and they love to be combed out.

"The Jesuit Relations say that in 1646, a man 'was sentenced to make reparation, by the Civil authority, and to mount the Chevalet,' and 'a public blasphemer, was put on the Chevalet. He acknowledged his fault, saying that he had well deserved punishment, and came of his own accord to confess, that evening or the next day,' and that another man 'acted at the fort as such a glutton, that he was put on the Chevalet, on which he was ruptured.'--Wikipedia, "Wooden Horse (device)"

381 Got this email. I am not making this up:

"House Republicans have been in the trenches with President Trump since the beginning, and we know you have been too, Friend. It’s times like these where we have to fight back harder than EVER to preserve the America we know and love."

I don't know which party to hate more.

Definitely Democrats.

I hate the Republican Party, but the Democrat Party is the only one I call a historical Blight on America.

385 What should have been an obvious red flag with David French was his inability to not shoehorn his adopted black daughter into almost everything he wrote or said.

386 This is like the backstory of Gone Girl, right? Before the beginning of social media, her parents publicized every moment of her life in a series of children's books, which made her both a celebrity and completely crazy.
