Summary
Should children be compensated for their appearances on social media, just like they are for chores? We tackle this provocative question as we explore the intricate ethics of family vlogging. With examples like the LeBrants and Ruby Frankie, the conversation traverses the fine line between sharing genuine family moments and exploiting children for profit. Our discussion encourages you to reflect on the importance of giving children a voice and setting boundaries in the digital age.
In a touching exchange with my son Dre, we delve into his journey navigating social media as a 16-year-old. Dre candidly shares how these platforms have shaped both his personal and family life, highlighting the benefits and challenges of growing up online. Together, we emphasize the significance of consent and open communication between parents and children regarding their online presence, while Dre recounts how this digital involvement has positively influenced our living situation.
