“Privacy is power! Why are you professing your Love to your person if they aren’t on IG? Just tell them in person. Also I wonder when we open Instagram accounts for our babies have we given them an option to grow up and decide whether they want a public life? Smh,” read Lillian Muli’s post.
She went on to caption the post saying that it is only her view, and that everyone should do what makes them happy.
“Musings...thinking out loud. Disclaimer my views are mine and mine only. Do what makes you Happy,” she wrote.

muirituwakabete Especially babies. Imagine your whole life from diapers to adulthood on display before millions of strangers heh
kemboibrenda15 In my opinion, it's okay to do whatever makes you feel fulfilled. What makes me happy may not make sense to you and vice versa. We're different and that's what make life Interesting or rather beautiful
shumicate The kids account part😂😂I once posted my son on Facebook then he had my phone akaona comments he was like"hapa ni wapi picha yangu iko?" Told him Facebook...he then asked "but mum sijasema nataka watu wanione,wengine hata sijui na hawanijui" 😂that is when I deleted all of his pics nd respected the young man's privacy...am gonna let him decide when he grows up
wanjiru3235 Nowadays people r living life like its a competition. Just coz ur friend has all his/her fam all over social media doesn't mean u need to do it too.
jos_wambua Good stuff. What if the child grows to be an introvert and generally not a social media person.
