As a person that was camera shy, I regret that I have so few photos of me as a child or teen, and virtual no videos. Anything I come across is worth more than gold, so I envy kids today that will have years worth of memories at their fingertips. My niece has more video and photos of her in 4 years than I do in 36. She will never have to strain to remember what she was like as a kid.
Today it does seem like overload, but as time goes by and photos get lost and destroyed, the value in all of this will become much more important.
Consider EVERYTHING you did as a kid.
Now consider that today’s kids have an electric record of much of what they’ve done good or bad that will never go away.
Every employer, every possible love interest, law enforcement, etc can peek into your child’s past in seconds.
Really think about that. That isn’t an improvement.
