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.

Goodness, the youth of today 🙄😆

I bet you go to zoos and spend the entire time taking pictures instead of looking at the animals.

Seriously, get a grip. Your poor kid won't thank you for spending their entire childhood staging pictures for Instagram.

Oh, we're already waiting for the thread!

This was exactly the poster I was thinking about!! Absolute insanity, of all the things to get worked up about. I'm 100% with your husband.

I didn't even know there was a joint posting thing on Facebook/Instagram. I can assure you, the only person that will care about your DDs easter outfit or a joint post is yourself. No one else gives a shit.

Because it’s easier than sending photos/message’s individually to all our friends and family plus it’s a nice keepsake to look back on in the future.

I’m not someone who obsessively uses social media but for occasions like this I find it important. Fair enough not everyone will agree.

Hey, don’t bring the Millenials into it! Social media appeared in our mid-late teens/early twenties and most of us are jaded and bored of it now. We just want MSN back. 😂

My first reaction

Got to be

You csn change your vote 😉

Sweetie, it is Easter not Christmas! I know the younger generations get their info from Google, but...

Bloody hell.
Op, come on.
I hope this thread has helped you see a bit of sense and you're snuggled up eating Easter eggs Rather than stressing over an insta post.
I'm so glad I'm not in to this.

Pulling a similar stunt?!

As in not wanting to hawk something personal to followers. This all sounds so vapid, tacky and embarrassing. He and your daughter didn’t ask you to buy all the stuff and go OTT, you have no right to get annoyed by him but he does have every right to be annoyed by your attention seeking antics which sound constant

Generation X?? Are you kidding? Generation X is those born between 1965 and 1980 - I can assure you WE'RE not the foolish ones who think that posting on social media is SO important we'd have an argument about it!!

Not on Mumsnet. Gen X can be in their mid 40s, and some women on here seem to still be having children at 46. 😆

I feel sorry for the baby.
Imagine having your life on Instagram.
When will people stop using their children like this.

It maybe the work if a millennial / Gen Y or most likely Gen Z. Something my Younger cousins would do!

Nope, don't tar us millennials!

Mumsnet HQ really dropping the ball with all these tiresome fake posts... Clearly the same idiot who was also insta-upset about her bday and mothers day...

You know social media isn't the real world right? Wel done to your husband for not indulging the nonsense are you going to have a joint separation grid when you throw a tantrum when he doesn't want a joint anniversary post

Bravo 👏 if this is a wind up

Are you related to "Amandaland"!

Not on Mumsnet. Gen X can be in their mid 40s, and most women on here seen to still be having children at 46.

Most people on MNs are boomers who have dc that are now adults

But you can do that without collaborating/dragging your husband into it. Just post on your page
