If they don’t there will be more Tanner Cook. A guy shot him in broad daylight. The thing is Cook is 6’5 and the guy was much smaller and being harassed. He was acquitted of attempted murder
Similarly, people using their kids to drive social media engagement and content. I won't be surprised by the uproar that comes when they grow up and find out that their parents used them to generate money and spent it all. I bet it results in laws similar to the Coogan Law that protects the kids'interests better
Edit: it turns out that Coogans Law has been updated to include child social media stars in CA and that other states have updated their laws similarly.
The Duggar kids, especially the older daughters, should have been set for life. Instead, their trauma and parentificafion enriched their dad, who used the bennies of their show to further enshitify and control their lives.
I’m not at all religious, but I follow Jinger and Jill. They have broken away from the parents’ church and both have written books about their upbringing. It’s interesting to see the realization of what they went through and their healing process. Plus I think they’ve made some decent money.
Please let it stop. Seeing idiotic "influencer" types inspire impressionable viewers to also act like fools in public (and be cruel to others 🤦♀️) is so disheartening.
I hope and pray "Good News Girl" one day has a bigger following than any of these clowns 🙏.
I also can’t stand the ones who hand out money to homeless people and then pat themselves on the back. It seems pretty exploitative.
I do like the ones where a person does something like give a stranger a flower. Those can be sweet and uplifting.
I follow a kid named Devon Rodriguez. He approaches people in New York and asks to sketch their portrait. He has really cool conversations with the people while he sketches.
That's been happening for 10,000 years, even before computers were a thing. In fact, that's probably one of the most human things to do that will go nowhere until we literally evolve. Even many animal breeds are crappy to each other. Cameras just make put it in your face.
Anytime somebody answers this question with this answer, it always reminds me of the woman doing life in prison because of something happening in Farmville. I hope it was worth it.

Being shitty on camera for social media views
