Family Vlog 101

Besides sharing it with the main family channel, you must also invest some time in organic social media marketing. You need to go through a minimum of four steps to have one for YouTube. Videos are going to be viral if their content is like crazy, whether you are shooting with a mere phone or DSLR. What matters the most is quality, funny, and informative content that helps viewers gain actual knowledge. They are the most viral videos of family members reviewing the different stuff.

The law requires at least 15% of a child’s earnings to be deposited in a blocked trust for the child when they are old enough to use it. Imagine all of the other exploitative channels slipping under YouTube’s radar because they are hidden under the platform’s vast and bottomless pit. YouTube at least has some regulations to protect children using their platform, but seem to be ignoring the children actually featured on their platform. They knew when we were $30,000 in the hole and we were trying to get out of it.

London based YouTube family, The Saccone-Jolys, includes husband and wife Jonathan and Anna, children Emilia, Eduardo, and Elessoa, and their six dogs. The name “SACCONEJOLYs” is a combination of Anna’s last name Saccone and Jonathan’s last name Joly. Based in Texas, the family posts a video every day on topics ranging from challenges to vacations to holidays. These children deserve to possess the money that they are earning, not their parents.

“Really disturbing things.” She never knew how seriously to take them. You never really know.” The Eh Bee parents don’t allow their kids to be online unless they are in the room with them. We have an obligation to change our culture and model consent to our kids playing own children. This starts by talking to the kids in our lives when we share a post about them or with their picture, and what that might mean for their online image and safety.

They have access to the videos family vloggers put out and so there is no excuse for not researching the channels they wish to work with. If every company had these kind of checks it would help to reduce the spread of toxic channels. The responsibility should be shared amongst parents, the law and social media platforms, as well as social media channel representatives and brands who reach out to family vloggers for advertisements. There is so much positive family content on the internet and social media is an excellent tool to connect parents by offering support and resources. But engaging children in such a public manner poses a risk to their privacy and emotional development.

But sharing children’s lives online causes issues even deeper than that. With the rise of platforms like YouTube, many families even vlog their children’s day-to-day lives. These vlogging channels, while they may seem harmless, cause a lot more harm than we may realize.
