Counterpoint: they created a separate account and therefore the person following submitted to this when they requested to follow versus using their personal accounts that people followed originally just for pictures of them.

It's such a retarded thing to do IHMO

It's awful. I know a couple of moms (both professionals and college educated, amazingly) who do this incessantly.
If the kid's name is Adam David Smith, every photo is
#BabySmith #AdamDavid #MySweetDavey #BigBoyAdam
What compels someone to do that?

I created instagram accounts for both of my children that I post pictures and videos of them on. I don't hashtag their names but I will use hashtags like OOD (outfit of the day) or #tagsforlikes (to get more likes and followers)

I did this but the account for my child is private. I didn't want to post photos of her to my personal account or my Facebook. They deserve for their lives to be private. Plus, no one (besides family and close friends) wants to see pictures of her every day.

Honest question: Why do you do this?
Posted on 6/19/16 at 9:14 pm to PBnJ
There honestly is at least one semireasonable explanation for it. The parent can go back in and search for the hashtag and pull up posts and media related to that hashtag the same way that folks search using hashtags for other more topical subjects like news, pop culture, etc.
Having said that I do not have kids and would not post their names as hashtags if I did.

I want my children to have a choice in how much of their lives are broadcast to the masses so we eliminated all social media after the birth of our first. I wouldn't have wanted all my awkward kid pictures catalogued and placed on the Internet.

I wouldn't do this-- who the frick has this kind of time anyway?-- but I could see one reasonable explanation being if you lived far away from family members. Our parents and close family have to wait for us to post photos of our kids. If they could search a hash tag, maybe it would be easier. I know most people don't particularly care about our kids, but I'm not creating them their own page or anything.

I think its fricking stupid for people to put any information about their kids on social media, but people are fricking stupid so what do you expect?

Hashtag whatever the frick you want. Why should I care?
