DH will no longer do joint posts on Instagram

[Whatslovegottodo25]

As per the title - Easter Sunday is off to a dreadful start with ‘D’ H and I already having had an argument.

Some background, we have individual insta’s but for any major ‘announcements/events’ as such we will use the collaboration feature so the post appears on both our grids. Think engagement, wedding, pregnancy-gender reveal/birth, anniversary etc.

It’s our DD’s first Easter so I’ve got her a brilliant outfit, some props and of course eggs. I’ve also got a personalised sort of sign which says it’s her first Easter.

I said to H I’ll get the photos done after breakfast and we can joint post. He says it’s stupid to do this and doesn’t warrant all the effort as it’s ’only Easter’ so he won’t be putting it on his grid.

AIBU to feel pissed off with him? It will look strange if it’s only on my page.

I did think what a pile ........ of but then I thought of someone I know and thought maybe it isn't

Interested to know what your definition of a boomer is considering Generation X are the generation with children who are now adults. Surely, the boomers are now grandparents (as are some Generation X'ers!).

This is pathetic

You have to be kidding about this surely? Please let him decide for himself what he’d like to do. First Easter is this also a thing.?

OP grow up

DP and I both have social media. We’ve been together for 6 years. Neither one of our profile pictures even looks like we are in a relationship. In fact from our posts you wouldn’t even know we were a couple!! But we very much are and are happy - because we don’t live on social media and have a real life relationship that nobody else really needs to know about

God I actually feel sorry for you OP, and not because there’s a pile on but because it’s actually pathetic that you care so much. Can’t stand the look at me posts on Facebook and instagram like this.

It's actually astonishing how frequent this sort of threads is becoming. People need to realise that social media is not real life.

Yup. We have business in cyber security and it never fails to shock me at how people don’t realise that once you upload it. Then meta Own the photo…

people do not realise the danger of posting their children’s faces. As someone who never ever ever posts their kids faces online and I would really really ask you all to consider not posting your child

would you be ok if someone from say Russia started sharing your kids photos? From Facebook? You’re all ok with someone from some random country share photos of your child….

Really really really please consider not posting your child’s faces

just really think about it. If your family wants to see them then send them through messages.

I haven’t and do not allow any photos of my child on any social media and it’s the best thing.

please please be careful posting your kids.

I've known couples who post on Instagram about how much they love each other, and then it comes out that one of them was cheating. Social media isn't representative of real life at all.

There’s new laws in the making and some have come out in America where if you make money off your child’s image that it is to be kept in an account till they’re an adult. Except in Texas. One family moved to Texas so they could continue making money off their child’s images.

there are laws coming I believe.

again though from a safety point of view and cyber security. Think carefully about sharing anything.

I wouldn't be using "insturgram" because I'm not 15 years old. I imagine your DH isn't 15 either.

I would think you were strange if I saw your post. Are you trying to be an influencer of something?

I promise you it won't look strange. We mums are generally the ones that fuss over big online announcements, photoshoots, "firsts" etc, the men aren't too bothered about that.There is nothing wrong with that, he might just not care. Don't worry about what people will think if you post it on yours alone, you can always tag him in the caption if anything.

Clearly he’s not the one ‘pulling a stunt’ 😕

Agreed - do not be GenX shaming!

Excuse you all, this has millennial written all over it!

Thank you. You know my tricks.

Definitely not millennial! We were born between 1981-1996 - we’re in our 30s and 40s now!

How very sad. Enjoy Easter as a family and stop selling a story to social media for ‘likes’.

" Easter Sunday is off to a dreadful start with ‘D’ H and I already having had an argument."
On the other hand, Christ did get resurrected!
I'm not even a Christian but the sheer shallowness of your post and apparent total ignorance of what actually matters to many people on Easter Sunday has brought out the ex Anglican in me! Also, your child is not a Barbie doll with accessories. Also (I'll join the chorus) are you 12?.

Millennials are the family vlogger generation!
Fess up OP we need to know lol

Enjoy your baby and have a lovely Easter with her, but seriously, you don't need props and outfits and setting up photoshoots to post on social media. Enjoy the moments, take your pictures but do it for you and your family, it doesn't all need to be for the world out there, we all know no family is perfect and that's ok

OP - AIBU??

At time of posting this comment, more than 3,700 MNers say YABU...

OP - 'Well I don"t think so and it's no wonder there's been so many posts like this with these men who keep BU!!!'

🤦🏼‍♀️

I feel so sorry for your DH
