Since time immemorial we have documented our families lives, but over the years birth announcements have evolved from placing a note in the newspaper (we used to do that!!) to filming pregnancy announcements for your family vlog channel in a Target bathroom. But does family vlogging blur the lines on our children's privacy? What are the long term implications of making your daughter's first period into content? This week I welcome Fortesa Latifi, a journalist who is currently writing a book about family vloggers and influencer children for Simon & Schuster. She's written for places like Rolling Stone, The New York Times, and The Washington Post, among so many others. I think you will learn a lot about family vlogging culture in this insightful conversation.
