Media: Stop Using The Childfree For Clickbait!
"Clickbait is a text or a thumbnail link that is designed to attract attention and to entice users to follow that link and read, view, or listen to the linked piece of online content, with a defining characteristic of being deceptive, typically sensationalized or misleading."
People interested in the childfree lifestyle will devour as much information on the topic as possible. When a new article, blog, video, or podcast drops – it is typically picked up quickly and spread through the network of childfree sites and groups. The same can be said for people interested in the parenting lifestyle.
Unfortunately, this makes us easy targets for clickbait or overly sensationalized information weaponizing the childfree lifestyle for the sake of getting one more like, share, or site hit.
