We Speak. I m Feifei.

00:05
And I'm Roy!

00:06
Wow, Roy! You've grown your
3
6480
2320
00:08
beard back! I thought you'd shaved
4
8800
2380
00:11
it off. I saw this picture of you on
5
11180
2540
00:13
social media without a beard. Here, look!
6
13720
4520
00:18
That's not me. That's a picture of
7
18240
1990
00:20
my son. He does look like me, but
8
20230
2790
00:23
he's a lot younger than me.
9
23020
2409
00:25
Every picture on here is of your
10
25429
2360
00:27
son! You're really guilty of 'sharenting'.
11
27789
5001
00:32
I am not sharenting! I know what
12
32790
2769
00:35
that means. It's for people who share
13
35559
2261
00:37
way too many photos of their children!
14
37820
2329
00:40
I do not share too much! Besides,
15
40149
3381
00:43
he's really cute!
16
43530
1610
00:45
He is cute, because he looks
17
45140
2219
00:47
like his mother! But you need to
18
47359
2610
00:49
be careful how much your share.
19
49969
2191
00:52
Let's talk more about sharenting
20
52160
2169
00:54
after these examples.
21
54329
2091
00:58
There are many pros and cons of
22
58669
1974
01:00
sharenting. We need to think
23
60643
1266
01:01
about them before we post all
24
61909
1330
01:03
these photos of our children.
25
63239
1942
01:06
He needs to stop sharenting -
26
66322
2229
01:08
I see so many photos of his daughter.
27
68551
3699
01:12
Eric, I'm tired of your constant
28
72250
2500
01:14
sharenting. Aren't you worried
29
74750
1430
01:16
that your son won't be happy
30
76180
1150
01:17
about this in the future?
31

This is The English We Speak
32
82410
2110
01:24
from BBC Learning English and
33
84520
2440
01:26
we re talking about the expression
34
86960
1430
01:28
'sharenting'. Sometimes parents
35
88390
3650
01:32
who commit sharenting are known
36
92040
1850
01:33
as 'sharents'. Roy, you are a sharent!
37
93890
4680
01:38
Haha I am not! I'm just really proud
38
98570
4400
01:42
of my son. I do agree that you need
39
102970
2430
01:45
to be careful when sharing things
40
105400
1590
01:46
about your children.
41
106990
1530
01:48
Yes, there has to be a barrier
42
108520
2160
01:50
between public and private life.
43
110680
3640
01:54
That's why I only share videos
44
114320
2060
01:56
and photos of him doing things
45
116380
1800
01:58
like playing football. Have you seen
46
118180
2040
02:00
how good he is? He's like
47
120220
1520
02:01
the new Pele!
48
121740
1680
02:03
I have - he's really good.
49
123420
2880
02:06
And I don't think that's sharenting,
50
126300
1710
02:08
and I suppose even though you
51
128010
1870
02:09
post a lot, there's nothing
52
129880
1790
02:11
too personal. So, I'll stop
53
131670
2560
02:14
calling you a sharent.
54
134230
2430
02:16
I think 'sharenting' is related
55
136660
1950
02:18
to too much information. But
56
138610
2441
02:21
we also need to think about
57
141051
1449
02:22
what we post, because in the
58
142500
1640
02:24
future, my son may be very
59
144140
2470
02:26
angry if I embarrass him with
60
146610
1530
02:28
a silly picture of him dressed
61
148140
1780
02:29
up like a giant parrot.
62
149920
2420
02:32
But there is a photo of your
63
152340
1210
02:33
son dressed as a giant parrot!
64
153550
2640
02:36
He looks ridiculous! You
65
156190
1971
02:38
should remove that photo.
66
158161
2319
02:40
That's not my son it's me.
67
160480
2470
02:42
I like dressing in
68
162950
1000
02:43
animal costumes.
69
163950
1800
02:45
He really does look like
70
165750
1560
02:47
you, Roy. Bye!
71
167310
1826
02:49
Bye!
