[quote=Anonymous]I have a relative who does this and it really is over the top. The kids all find her creepy because they are old enough to notice she doesn't actually play, but needs to document everything. We had to gently set boundaries with her in 2 important ways. 1.) She needs to ask the children permission to take any photos or videos and ask us permission to post online or we will no longer allow any documenting. I learned this was a presentation by a psychologist. You don't want your kids to think it is normal and fine for adults or peers to take endless photos and videos of them and they need to learn they have agency and the right to say "No." 2.) Even if the kids consent, give them a photo time and then if your child truly enjoys being with the grandparents, let them know how much she adores them and you want them to create memories together. Give them ideas for activities they can do together and choices if they are at a loss.[/quote]
