Social media accounts featuring kids are more popular than ever. But labor and privacy laws haven't been updated to safeguard the young stars.
The apparent indifference of lawmakers toward children’s right to privacy is odd, given how much most adults fear their own confidentiality being compromised by data harvesting, security breaches of cloud storage, and terms of service fine print selling our souls to the algorithmic devil.
It becomes even more perplexing when you consider the time and money spent on education around children’s internet safety. This is for good reason; establishing a conduct of mutual respect and trust between parent and child when it comes to online activity could not be more pertinent. Theis thorough in its advice on how to guide children through internet use, referring specifically to “body safety and boundaries … the importance of saying ‘no’ to inappropriate requests.
This lack of ethical consistency in safeguarding and privacy guidelines is hardly excusable, and the failure of the law to keep up with technological advancements has been more than acknowledged in the legal community. In 2012 the American Bar Association amended Comment 8, which pertains to duty of competence, urging lawyers to keep abreast of “the benefits and risks associated with relevant technology.
In the meantime, perhaps the uptick in discussions regarding child influencers could provide a temporary solution. Concerned web sleuths have recently noted the amount of likes, saves, and disturbing comments on Wren Eleanor’s potentially exploitative videos, such as one featuring Wren play-acting with one of her mother’s tampons. Jacquelyn has brushed off the accusations, urging detractors not to “” on account of “different parenting styles.
For centuries, advocacy for the rights of children has pushed for them to be recognized in both law and community as individuals, deserving of the same respect and understanding as the adults who protect them. To deny the inevitability that they will soon develop self-actualization and their own preferred boundaries is to deny their humanity, and there is no greater injustice than that.
