Is Kidfluencing the latest step on the toddler-to-trainwreck pipeline? Kidfluencing is an $8B industry that has very few protections in place for children. Whether they’re a child of family vloggers or proud parents who can’t stop “sharenting,” or they accidentally went viral for a funny video, kids are growing up as digital natives without key mentorship around using technology safely. Alyson examines the areas that platforms and legislation need to address to create safer online environments and career pathways for young digital creators.
