Dr. Phil

2nd November 2022 45 mins Season 21 Episode 38

Nowadays, parents post about their children on social media platforms more than ever. “Sharenting” is the term used to describe parents publicizing sensitive content or oversharing their children on the internet. Proponents feel sharing their family is an expression of parental pride and argue that critics take their posts out of context. Critics say oversharing is an invasion of children’s privacy, dangerous, and harmful to the relationship between parent and child. Dr. Phil speaks with the Furrha family, a popular social media family with roughly 16 million followers, as well as experts and parents, to discuss online sharing and what parents should consider before posting.
