"While many kids may not yet have accounts themselves, their parents,
schools, sports teams, and organizations have been curating an online
presence for them since birth. The shock of realizing that details about
your life—or, in some cases, an entire narrative of it—have been shared
online without your consent or knowledge has become a pivotal experience
in the lives of many young teens and tweens."

Via Irreverent Monk, who wrote:

"Do you think your kids will like it?

Would it be ok for someone else to share private and personal things
about you?"
