In today's digital landscape, child influencers are commonplace, both in their sheer numbers and their potential for exploitation. Although basic laws regarding child labour and child abuse can address the most serious cases, there is no regulation currently. Marketers should take precautions to avoid exploitation and abuse. Here are some points to be aware of. Here are some important facts about child influencers.
Children Influencers may be eligible for work permits
Some critics have voiced concerns about the laws' restrictiveness and difficulty in enforcement. Assemblyman Kansenchu signed a bill exempting child influencers below 13 years of age from working permits. Their performance must be unpaid and not exceed one hour. Critics also say it is almost impossible enforce laws concerning child influencers since digital content can be unregulated and doesn’t have to conform to any set schedule.
Another proposed law would require parents obtain work permits to "Kidfluencers". This permit would allow the government track parents who make a profit from their child’s social media activities. This type of permit would allow lawmakers to gather data on the consequences of such actions, such the relationship between social networking and school absences. This data could be used to guide future interventions. However, this approach has a major flaw.
Child influencer exploitation
Social media platforms allow for the exploitation and manipulation of child influencers. Many children post on these platforms, and they are exposed to explicit content or sexualization. Desmond Napoles, an 11-year-old boy who promotes video games, is one example. Even though he is still a kid, he is making thousands of dollars each month.
Children who are famous for their posts can face greater productivity pressures to keep their popularity and their audience. In addition, the pressure to create content could cause bullying and backlash online, which could lead directly to phedophilia. And there's always the possibility of a child's private moments being exploited for the profit of a company.
Regulating the industry can present challenges
The rise of the child influencer industry has created several ethical, social, and legal questions. Some of these issues are privacy and child labor. Others concern the ethics of displaying children's lives online. France, for instance, passed a law questioning how exposure to celebrities may affect children's mental health or development. French lawmakers also warn of the dangers associated with online child pornography.
Children influencers may have a large audience, more subscribers and a greater reach, but their popularity also means that they make more money. YouTube, for example has more than five million subscribers. Much of this is due to the channel being managed by parents. This channel includes game reviews, challenges, and sponsored videos, and blurs the distinction between a hobby and a business. Also, child influencers can face legal issues such parental embezzlement.
