The singer posted the father-son picture on Instagram, where fans quickly noticed his unbuttoned jeans. Some users called the detail “inappropriate,” especially with his child in the photo. One critic wrote, “Button your pants and act like a father. You are setting an example.”

Others defended Bieber, arguing people were overreacting. “There’s nothing wrong with this,” one fan said. Another added, “Stop reading into everything—sometimes pants are just unzipped by mistake.” The debate highlights how parenting choices online often attract public scrutiny.

Experts warn that “sharenting,” or posting children’s photos online, carries risks. Psychologist Susan Albers explained, “Sharenting opens a window directly into a child’s life, which predators can abuse.” Studies show most parents share hundreds of photos before a child turns 13, often without considering long-term consequences.

Justin and Hailey Bieber have avoided showing Jack’s face, but this latest post reignited questions about privacy.

Would you share personal photos of your child online—or keep family life completely private?
