I think that depends on your parenting style. My 3rd son knows that he was a happy accident and we have often spoken about how he was my amazing surprise baby. He loves hearing about how his Dad nearly had an actual heart attack when I told him and asked me 5 times whether I was kidding

(our 3rd meant that we had 3 under 5 at one point

I certainely wouldn't be writing the whole tale on a social media a/c open to 900k strangers though.
Some details should remain private I think? I have always thought it's a step to far to tell my boy that I sat in the abortion clinic when they did the scan and realised that the point at which I asked 'Is the baby all ok?' that I couldn't get rid of him. I mean, to me that's touching bcos in my heart that's the moment I knew he was a real person, all mine, and there was no way I was getting rid. It's a moment I will never forget, but not one that he ever needs to know about imo. (guess this doesn't count...hopefully my real identity will not be revealed

I think these guys are either very naive, or very uncaring about the impact of what they put out there might have on their kids. Very sad.
