But the Redditor is not happy about how she utilizes Hailey to boost her popularity and gain more partnerships. Others agreed and pointed out that many of the Bates parents do the same “exploit” with their kids. Many also hope that they’ll soon get shut down for not respecting the privacy of their children.
- “It makes my stomach turn that these people, and many others, use their children in this manner to earn money. Exploiting them in this way should be illegal, in my opinion anyway.”
- “Strong agree though, I’m glad that laws are starting to come into place about children being used on social media in this way. I’d hate to have every single detail of my life blown on the internet the way it is with kids now.”
- “I don’t think they see it as something bad. They realise they can make money really fast from that without “hurting” the kids. I don’t think any influencer family think about their kids future in regards to their privacy.”
- “They need to be called out on it.”
