ABSTRACT
Conclusion:
The obtained themes were discussed in the context of the child’s safety and the possible harms of sharing their private information.
Results:
In the study, it was seen that most of the posts of the social media celebrity mom on the social media account were the photographs of her child (83%). Four themes, which were private/confidential information, private clothing, emotional moments and commercial purposes, were determined after descriptive analysis.
Materials and Methods:

Document analysis, frequency analysis and descriptive analysis methods were used in the analysis of the photographs and themes were emerged.
