The privacy dilemma<\/h2>\n
While posting adorable pics may feel harmless, parents worry about digital footprints, long-term exposure, and the risks of sharing their children\u2019s lives online. Moreover, once an image is out there, it can be saved, copied, or misused, and you might not even know where it ends up.<\/p>\n

The impact:<\/h2>\n\n- Strangers can see or save photos<\/li>\n
- Risk of misuse or identity theft<\/li>\n
- Personal information can be exposed<\/li>\n
- Kids may feel embarrassed when they grow up<\/li>\n
- Loss of control over their own image<\/li>\n
- Potential for teasing, bullying, or low self-esteem<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Legal risks are real…<\/h2>\n
Kids can take action too. Around the world, more minors are suing parents over posts shared without consent. For instance, an 18-year-old in Austria<\/a> sued her parents for posting over 500 childhood photos on Facebook, including intimate moments like diaper changes. The case is a wake-up call<\/em> about respecting children\u2019s digital rights.<\/p>\nWhat Dubai parents think<\/h2>\n
