    I never understand why you’d even want to do that? I don’t share images or videos of my kids as a rule but we do keep a family album app. If my kid is having a melt down, though, I’m not fucking filming, I’m trying to calm down the kid. Wtf is wrong with you is you if your first instinct is to film?

      I don’t typically record things, but I could see the value in doing so if your kid denies having acted in a certain way, so you can show them they did. If they deny certain actions, it’s harder to show them that the consequences of those actions are related to the choices they made.

      Of course, I’m not advocating sharing these videos with everyone, though. Maybe a counselor if necessary.
