Abstract: Abstract The increasing use of social networks in almost every part of the world has led to research on various age groups. Because it is important to understand individuals and social media-based transformations in the social media age. Like the causes and consequences of the social media’s intense penetration into social life, it is of course a contemporary importance to reflect on the concepts and practices introduced by social media to daily life. The concept of sharenting, which enters the new media literature as “sharing parenting” or “social media parenting,” is as popular as it is for discussion. Indeed, given that social media itself is in the midst of many ethical debates, it is necessary to discuss the importance of the concept in terms of the privacy of children who need to be protected and whose rights must always be observed. Therefore, in this study, sharenting, which refers to sharing parenting and is discussed today in many parts of the world, will be discussed and the relationship of social media with privacy will be discussed. The aim of the study is to present current approaches and data on social media and children through sharenting. The study also tries to draw attention to the potential risks of sharenting.
