(2019·浙江金丽衢十二校高三联考)For several months, Cara has been working up the courage to approach her mom about what she saw on Instagram. Not long ago, the 11yearold girl, like all the other kids in this story, discovered that her mom had been posting her photos for much of her life.“I’ve wanted to bring it up. It’s strange to see myself up there, and sometimes there are pictures of myself I don’t like,” she said.
Like most other modern kids, Cara grew up, immersed in social media. While many kids may not yet have accounts themselves, their parents, schools, sports teams, and other organizations have been organizing online presence for them since birth. The shock of realizing that details about your life have been shared online without your permission or knowledge has become an important experience in the lives of many teenagers. Recently a parenting blogger(博主) wrote in an essay of The Washington Post that despite(尽管) her 14yearold daughter’s horror of discovering that her mother had shared years of highly personal stories and information about her online, she simply could not stop posting them on her blog and social media. The writer said that promising her daughter that she would stop posting things about her publicly on the Internet “would mean shutting down a vital part of myself, which isn’t necessarily good for me or her”.
But it’s not just crazy mommy bloggers who construct their children’s online identity; plenty of average parents do the same. There’s even a special word for it: sharenting. Almost a quarter of children begin their digital lives when parents upload their photos to the Internet, according to a study conducted by the Internetsecurity firm AVG. The study also found that 92 percent of kids under the age of 2 already have their own unique digital identity.
