A Grandparent's Guide to Sharing Photos Online
|
The latest from the More Than Grand blog is up on the website! A Grandparent's Guide to Sharing Photos OnlinePublished on March 28, 2025 Sharing photos of your grandchild is dramatically different in the digital
age. Learn how to safely navigate digital photo sharing while respecting
parents' boundaries and protecting your grandchild's privacy.
If you are a grandparent, you likely remember your own mother or grandmother having a small photo album in their handbag. They’d whip it out when they met up with friends to share the latest photos of their pride and joy, their grandchild. In this digital age, Grandma’s Brag Book has been replaced by Facebook. For grandparents sharing photos online, platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and messaging apps have become the new norm. Today’s grandparents can share the latest photos of their grandchild with all their friends without even needing to meet up with them. You can’t deny this is far more convenient! However, that convenience comes with a price. Unlike the photos you keep in your purse, you have little control over who sees digital photos. No matter how closely you monitor your privacy settings, a photo you post online or send to a friend has the potential to be seen by a much wider audience than you intend. How can that happen?
