Sharenting from the perspective of parents and children aged 10-13
Zavadilová, Tereza ; Háša, Marek (advisor) ; Vochocová, Lenka (referee)
The thesis deals with the topic of sharenting through the perspective of parents and their children aged 10-13. Through the examined phenomenon, space is given to parents and children to express their own position. The research reflects the existing theoretical knowledge that defines the issue of sharenting. Using in-depth qualitative interviews, research with a parent-child dyad is elaborated. Data were analysed using a combination of thematic and conversation analysis. The main findings in this thesis show that children show trust towards their parents, but their attitude varies considerably according to the specific content and towards the subjects through whom the sharing of their own person is performed. According to children, disclosure of their information should only take place with their consent. For parents, sharenting is a new discipline about which not much information is available. Through the research it was found that there is no regular communication between parents and children on the topic being discussed. From participants' statements and the subsequent main findings of the research, it is confirmed that the issue of sharenting should be more widely known to the public. The results of this research can serve as a basis for conducting further research on sharenting.

Adolescents'attitudes to the phenomenon of sharenting
Urban, Tereza ; Vochocová, Lenka (advisor) ; Soukup, Martin (referee)
This diploma thesis focuses on the widespread phenomenon of sharenting, an activity in which parents share photos, videos, or detailed descriptions of their children on social media. The diploma thesis aims to find out how Czech adolescents, who have direct experience with this phenomenon, feel about it. The qualitative research is based on findings obtained through in- depth interviews with eleven adolescents. The theoretical part is devoted to the definition of the main concepts - adolescence and sharenting and puts them in the context of Communication Privacy Management Theory and Impression Management Theory. The empirical part then presents the results and conclusions of the research. The results of the analysis show that adolescents' views on sharenting are largely influenced by their perceptions of the risks associated with this phenomenon. Those of them who had a somewhat negative experience with sharenting perceived this activity as riskier. At the same time, those who perceived social networks in general as a potential threat were more aware of their risks. On the other hand, if the rules for sharing are well set between parents and their children and parents respect the opinion of their children, sharenting can be perceived positively among the adolescents themselves, and they may even...

Sharenting as a form of communication on social networks
Bláhová, Noemi ; Švelch, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Vochocová, Lenka (referee)
The thesis deals with sharenting, i.e. the oversharing of information about children online by their own parents. The thesis itself then looks at what this content captures, who it is primarily aimed at and what parents are trying to communicate by sharing it. The theoretical part of the thesis elaborates the notion of representation and self-presentation. Subsequently, the concept of childhood itself and how it is represented in different types of media is discussed. In the second part of the theory, the concept of sharenting itself is anchored and its characteristics and possible downsides are presented. The practical part of the thesis was conducted on the basis of qualitative research, specifically through the analysis of selected articles and thematic analysis of semi-structured interviews with ten respondents. The results of the research find that the participating parents communicate mainly positive content on their social networks through sharenting content, as well as authentic moments from their lives. They also try to present their children in a similar and responsible way. In terms of their own self-presentation, respondents tend to present themselves subconsciously rather than directly. Although the findings are not generalisable to the population as a whole, they offer interesting...

The phenomenon of sharenting on Instagram with a focus on parents of disabled children
Břešťanová, Jolana ; Römer, Lucie (advisor) ; Supa, Markéta (referee)
The diploma thesis focuses on the phenomenon of sharenting on Instagram. Specifically, it focuses on parents of disabled children who practice it. Sharenting is still a relatively under- researched topic, despite the fact that, in addition to its positive elements, there is also a number of problems and risks for parents and their children. The aim of this thesis was to find out how parents of disabled children perceive, think about and approach the issue of sharenting. In the theoretical part of the thesis, in addition to a summary of the literature on sharenting and its introduction with regard to children with disabilities, the theory of the mediatization of the family as the penetration of digital media into everyday family life is presented. Methodologically, the thesis builds on content analysis (as a secondary method) of the Instagram profiles of these parents and on semi-structured interviews with them (main method). In particular, the practical part explores how sharenting relates to the lives of parents of children with disabilities, what content are they sharing, how they approach it, what their motivations for sharenting are, and how they perceive the positives, negatives and risks of their particular online behaviour. Based on these methods, it was found that the primary motivation for...

Sharing pictures of children by their parents on social media
Švabová, Aneta ; Rosenfeldová, Jana (advisor) ; Součková, Barbora (referee)
This theoretical based bachelors theses is focused on phenomenon of sharing pictures of children online by their parents, so called sharenting (especially on Facebook or Instagram). There are risks connected to this kind of sharing, such as formation of a digital footprint, which could include sensitive information, details from personal life or other problematic information, which would never be shared by children it concerns. This work attempts to capture the consequences this sharing could have for a life of a child outside of online world as well as for their online presence. All these phenomena will be described in theory but also by a legal perspective. Considering the terms and conditions of use published by META or other legal documents, this work attempts to answer following questions: To what extend is sharing this information unsafe? Can the child seek legal defence? And what legal boundaries are there for this kind of sharing? By analysing and interpreting academic and other relevant texts, together with legislation and jurisdiction, this work presents a conclusion, that such sharing could be a violation of privacy of a child, which would go hand in hand with violation of obligatory care for the child deriving from parental responsibility. Furthermore, this work detects a space for...

Sharenting - Oversharing Information about Children by their Parents
HLAVINKOVÁ, Anna
The bachelor's thesis deals with the topic of Sharenting - excessive sharing of information about children by their parents. The work is divided into theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part of the bachelor's thesis is further elaborated in five chapters, which deal with risky behaviour, family, currently the most used social networks, the legal concept of sharenting and sharenting itself. The practical part is mentioning the goals and hypotheses, which were processed using a quantitative type of research, the questionnaire technique. The research sample included a total of 221 respondents, which consisted of parents who are active on social networks and young people (future parents) aged 18 to 26 years. The selection of respondents was targeted, using the snowball method. From the results of this bachelor's thesis, we found that parents know the risks associated with sharing private information, photos, videos on the Internet and social networks. We also found that parents share this information to create virtual family albums, by sharing memories with distant relatives and friends. Parents do not ask their children for approval to share photos, videos, etc. on social networks. When evaluating the questionnaires, we received different opinions from potential future parents, who mostly answered negatively to the sharing of information about children on the Internet. The results of this bachelor thesis can be the basis for further discussion on this issue. Furthermore, they can be an incentive for various educational and awareness programs not only for parents but also for the general public.

Mom influencers - attitudes towards publicizing their own children on Instagram
Mimochodková, Ráchel ; Vochocová, Lenka (advisor) ; Reifová, Irena (referee)
The use of social media by parents posting on their profiles content that concerns their own children has increased the representation of children in the digital environment, especially on Instagram. However, when it comes to children, it is a sensitive and ethically problematic issue, and their publication can be creating potential problem. Not only regular users, but also influencers are active when it comes to publishing their own children, as they have thousands of followers and their activity on social media represents work or at least a substantial source of income. However, individual influencers may differ in their approach, whether in frequency of showing off children or (not)accepting collaborations on children's products. The objective of the thesis was to find out how Czech influencers approach public sharing of children on the social network Instagram. Within the research part, individual interviews were conducted, and the subsequent analysis showed that Czech influencers have individually set boundaries that affect the final form of the published content. They also turned out to be approached for commercial collaborations, but the way they approach these offers differs. On one hand, there are those who try to minimize the number of accepted collaborations, but on the other hand, some...
