A Big Problem - Sharenting: Is it Possible to Turn a Big Problem into a Small One?

Year 2025, Volume: 2 Issue: 1, 45 - 46, 30.04.2025

Abstract

The integration of technology into our lives today brings with it many problems. Today's parents use this technology recklessly and share every moment of their children and make them public, so to speak. (Brosch, 2016). Growing up in a digital-first environment, these children may face significant privacy issues that will shape their future lives. (Fox & Hoy, 2019).
