Invasion of privacy?
kazitetalibuse
As I was posting my previous question, another thing occured to me.
I had thought about this a few times before that, too.
May be you can help me see this more clearly.
I would hate it if my husband posted questions about how to handle our
relationship behind my back. Actually, I would hate it even if I knew
about it. It would make me feel exposed, and vulnerable, and as if our
intimacy has been invaded. Unless, I suppose I felt like I wanted some
outside input on a particular issue, too.
Does this extend to parenting? Should I get my daughter's permission
before I write about her on message boards? A very young child might
not understand such an explanation.. How do you handle this?
Thanks,
Renata

I would not post about my children without their permission once they were
old enough to understand.

My kids are used to being discussed and they really don't mind.
Sometimes they'll say something and say "Don't report this," and I
don't. It's happened maybe four or five times with five kids in a
dozen years.
There are different "parents" of such discussions as these. My own
first examples were La Leche League (which DEFINITELY depends on real
people sharing real experiences) and Adult Children of Alcoholics,
which involves personal stories in a lighter way, but is more
formulaic and private, and uses only first names, not last. There
is a group/philosophy called TCS, and they refuse to tell any
personal stories. They talk theory only, which makes it useless, in
my opinion. It's a political philosophy at that point.
What if you joined a list about training horses and no one there
would even admit if he owned a horse, or if you happened to know he
did, he refused to answer any direct questions about his horse, but
would only speak of the way horses should theoretically be trained?
That's how it seems to me it would be if we didn't give real-life
examples.
But if you feel uncomfortable, just read and don't share. That's
fine. The group as a group isn't going to tell you whether you need
her permission or not. It IS your experience, your relationship with
your daughter.
