@@MalailaHarrison-wp2qu You should ask YOURSELF that SAME question? Why do you care she talks about them? You're not the hero in shining armor, trust me.
okay but she is talking about MINORS acting like their MOTHERS. What she is saying is true but still. And no1 said that they were the superhero in the movie 💀@@anyaaa2801
I'm not american and i speak french. Vous me donner du courage car j'ai envie de juger et parler de ce genre de sujet mais je n'ai pas le courage et le matériel pour le faire, mais maintenant j'ai le courage pour le faire. Surtout que même en France y'a des chaînes de parents qui exploite leurs enfants comme Studio Bubble Tea pour ne citer que. Thank you.
As a recently turned 18 year old, I’ve been told multiple times by people my age, that I look and act too young. And lowkey got bullied for it. Social media ruined what teenagers are supposed to look and act like. And it gives us unrealistic expectations
Me too iam 14 and people in my school act grown dress grown and iam like different iam like weird because i dress different act different iam like an alien in my school
Don't listen to them. You both sound extremely bright and sensible. There's nothing wrong with behaving like teenagers, but there certainly is a problem with teens acting and dressing like grownups. Enjoy being young and have fun. I'm glad you're not giving into peer pressure as I'm pretty sure most will regret growing up so quickly when their older. These are the fun years of your life, enjoy them, there's no rush to grow up.
I was one of the kids who “grew up too quick”. I thought i had to become an adult to be cool. Now, as an adult i tend to go back to childish things. I collect toys and like to play games. I feel like i didnt have a complete childhood.
@@why-am-i-always-so-emotionalyou’re the reason women get away with it by making excuses. Crying about every single one of Jeffrey Epstein’s friends yet worship Nicki minaj when she directly supports both her husband giving him a child when and her brother when it’s common knowledge they’re child rapists
Sadly, there’s nothing for teenagers. Even Euphoria a show about teens is not recommended to underage people. We had the cheetah girls, high school musical, that’s so raven etc and it was cool to be a teen but now they don’t have nothing. I feel bad for them.
YES FR! as interesting as euphoria is, it’s not realistic!! edit: ok i see now that to some of you it’s realistic but it’s not always the case. it’s just from my pov how i see most high schools.
I think that's what made anime more main stream. Because, while not completely free from problematic aspects, it has whole genres basically dedicated to that age group
@@Anastasia-ro3oiit’s realistic for teens like me with an alcoholic mom who worked all night. I think it’s a horrible show for kids to watch cuz they’ll wanna feel included and emulate it. The early 2000s definitely had more wholesome teen content lol. Im still angry that Euphoria was allowed to be made. My teen hood left me with crippling PTSD in my 20s and from 21-24 I was disabled. Not a cool thing at all.
Yepp I was a teen in the mid 2000s-early 2010s and we had so many relatable shows that were age-appropriate. It was a great time to be a teen back then. Degrassi used to be my fav show
Blue Ivy is covered from neck to toe on tour with Beyoncé and she looks cute and she appropriate! If she can design multiple outfits for her then i don’t wanna hear excuses for parents dressing their young children in crop tops and shorty shorts.
I agree but it’s not showing skin that always makes an outfit inappropriate it’s the intention, you know what I mean? Like we shouldn’t romanticize the days when covering children entirely was considered good and girls who wore normal clothes are s1uts. Crop tops and short shorts (not booty shorts) r fine. I think (example) pretty little thing loungewear set with ruching on the butt and chest that shows no skin is inappropriate. And I think a hooters crop top is inappropriate. It’s about s3xualizing which can involve showing skin. It’s about how the clothes are showcasing the body. Are they showing skin/wearing it to be seen s3xy? Also you know blue Ivy wears crop tops and short (mid thigh) dresses.
Some people are clueless. My own mother bought my then 9 y/o daughter a crop top and super short shorts. I was like, “what is this?! No!! Absolutely not!! Why you buy her this outfit?!” My mom said, “she needs to dress like this while she’s young because she won’t be able to dress like this once she gets older.”😳 I was at a loss for words. All I could say is, “No!! She’s not wearing that. Take it back.”
i just turned 18 and i really don't understand why teenagers even those who are younger than me want to be so grown prematurely. The responsibilities to come??? the predators that are being invited???? I truly fail to understand.
as someone who will soon turn 18 (in 2 months) let me help you out: surroundings, neglectful/ ab*sive parents, friends, (cs) ab*se, mental health, hormones/puberty, family issues, relationships, the country they live in, the neighborhoods they live in, the people who live in their household, alc*hol, dr*gs, ignorance, health, peer pressure, books, movies, tv shows, social media, fantasies, clothing stores, etc… i’m pretty sure there are a few more i can touch on or expand on but because of youtubes rules i don’t think it will be allowed. hope this helped. /genuine
@@niylane i do get that. I'm from a South African township that has horrifying things going on. literally found someone murdered on my way to school, I also live in a broken home and I believe those are circumstances that *force*us to grow and up because we've got no other choice. but here I think it's people who are privileged that want to look grown and act grown, for example, Diddy's twins and Kylie Jenner when she was younger. those people have no reason at all to want to grow up fast tbh.
I blame everything on the parents, because who let’s their daughters go out and dress inappropriate in the first place? And the worst part is that there are pedophiles lurking through their pages🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢
Yessss … some of the replies I’ve come across on these pages are downright creepy and scary. A lot of them are profile pictures of grown men with full on beards and typical boomer sunglasses - complete strangers to these young girls, creeping on them and calling them “beautiful”. Then you go look at these peoples’ profiles and look at who they’re following … it’ll make you queasy. Let’s not also forget the weird older women who also creep on the young teenage boys, as well. SHEESH. So gross. The terrifying part about all of it is how open these young kids are with sharing every detail about their lives to complete strangers on the internet. They have grown up during the social media era of not understanding the concept of keeping IRL personal stuff off the internet, which was a complete 180° from how Gen X and Millennials were raised with the internet (we had TV PSAs that told the dangers of giving away real names online and everything). Now, since companies make billions from social media from people sharing their every detail to sell off their info to target then with ads … kids today think it’s totally normal to be such an open book as if there’s zero consequences to how much they share. Instead, it’s all out there for everyone to read - where they live, where they attend school, when they go to bed, where they’ll be going when they leave the house, if they’ll be alone with friends, if they’re home alone, etc. on top of giving out the most personal details that just shouldn’t be shared online no matter your age … and their parents? Not a single care in the world. Get those views, girlies~ All for these grown folks to creep on them, following them on all their socials, and constantly commenting trying to get noticed. Then when something horrible happens, the parents sit and act as if they have no idea how it was possible. 😕 It’s incredibly sad … and society has gone so far down this path now where parents only care about their kid being the next big influencer to make bank with no care about the creeps stalking them that I don’t think it’ll get any better unless social media gets the big boot. It’s depressing.
true i am a teen with divorced parents since childhood pretty much noticed this in my own parents, meanwhile my mom wanted me to dress all revealing and "sexy" my dad on the other hand,when i bonded with him again he explained why im too young for what my mom is teaching me and how i should be more like my age tbh i always felt uncomfortable with my mom's behavior but didnt speak up at that time because im scared of her (still am) but im glad she can't force anything on me now
And as far as Alabama Barker it baffles me how her father or mother does nothingggg! She’s BEEN grown for a long time! Especially her dad, what father would wanna see his daughter on social media being that way
Her dad or her mom did not grew up using the internet as kids/teenagers compare to her and her brother Landon; Travis did not know about online predators or grooming and he just like that he let his daughter to dress like a hoe; 17 is still child he didn't step up as much as Kourtney how she is strict with own kids but not her stepchildren.
Ikr I’m 20 but ppl think I’m 14😭 Im kinda jealous that they look older than me. Although I’m grateful for being a late bloomer cuz that means I still had time to be a kid as well.
@@Coco-xq7zhbro fr. I’m 21 and often get mistaken for a 12-15 year old (the oldest any stranger has ever guessed was 18). Some people thought that my 17 year old stepsister was the older one before. I know that I’ll appreciate it later, but it’s really annoying having people assume that I’m a child when I haven’t been one for years now.
I’m 20 and getting out of the age of wanting to be sexual or seen in a sexual light. When I was younger 15-18 I wanted to be seen as sexy or attractive and definitely over did it with certain actions and clothing. It attracted the wrong attention and put me in some bad situations that I regret. Now that I’m 20 and in college with An apartment and bills growing up sucks. I wish I would’ve understood that as a teen and allowed myself to be myself instead of seeking validation.
this!! as soon as i turned 20 i started to realize how i rushed growing up by wanting to act like an adult and seen as one. being grown is not that fun now that i’m 21 and i wish i would’ve spent more time just being a kid when i was younger. i remember the peak of kik and how that was probably what put me on wanting to be perceived as older, that and the rise of instagram. i really feel for the teens that want to rush growing up because of the things they see in the media. god forbid they want to act like a normal child and others their age will ridicule them for “not being grown enough.”
Blame capitalism not adulthood. Capitalism ruins lives so does wealthy corrupt corporatism. If we lived under true communism/anarchism we wouldn't have these problems..
@@ghost1ferIndeed. Being an adult especially as a woman is not fun, it is sad that girls have to follow shallow women like that on social media, to receive care. They need better role models.
Regrets is one thing, but I'm confused why no one's questioning their childhood, as in if something happened to them. I was messed with in my younger teenage years, and I didn't tell anyone till I was in my 30's. However, best believe people knew something happened to me due to my behavior making a drastic shift from 9th to 10th grade. Keeping that pent up anger is revealing as I reflect upon it in my adulthood too. Right now I hate my family, but I thought at the time it's my family and I only have one; finding comfort in the uncomfortable.
I’m 16 (2007) and I really feel for these girls I feel like it’s a phase in every young girls life to sexualise themselves and want to act older but with them no parents are stepping instead they’re being encouraged and payed
@@ihateyt1880 I'm 19 and still watch miraculous and Barbie Dreamhouse 💀and discuss every ,,chapter"(whatever dunno how to call it) with my 21 yr old friend 💀
I'm a teenager, I'm afraid of teenagers nowadays, I always get "jokes" from "oh you don't understand Because you're a virgin. " Or you are So childish for your age. But I'm glad that I'm not like other teenagers, but I'm also worried about the children who follow these teenagers Influencers, why they now want to copy. This is my opinion 😊
You are right, I was the virgin of my friend group and they used to make fun of me for being “innocent”. It really doesn’t matter if you lose it or not, be more “grown” or not because at the end of the day you should enjoy your youth with out any pressure to try to be adult like, your time will come soon haha.
Honestly im a teenager to but im not gonna lose my v card cuz everyone else is I have standards and want to wait until I find someone who I fully trust
I was just watching a video of the cheetah girls and someone made the comment how back then we had things for the tween stage in our lives, as opposed to now how it’s just straight from child to being grown (or trying to be so quickly). It’s really sad honestly how the girls in this era won’t really look back and have nostalgic moments of their girlhood like how us older mid 20 something’s girls do
This is so true. We had tween and teen idols who we grew up with. We also had sitcoms that taught us life lessons such as "That's So Raven", for instance. I don't see that for this generation.
Exactly. A lot of these girl start to wear make up at about 12/13 and lose their virginity’s around 13-15. I didn’t lose mine until I was damn near 20 and started using make up at 17/18. I was 20 getting mistaken for 16! 😂 they didn’t even want to sell me cigarettes. These girls are 17 looking my age! They’re not even old enough to drink but will hold a glass of liquor. Where the parents?
@@BiglizzoosPorchTalkno honestly! girls these days be wearing full makeup frm age 13 and are aspiring for bbls🤦🏽♀️ at that age i was tryna decide between disney/nick
I also noticed I don’t see a lot of stores that have a tween or junior section. I remember as a teen, the mall had actual stores for tweens. No longer the case.
Dear God, it feels like Brooke Shields all over again. Those poor girls will never know what it's like to have an awkward phase and that having one is a rite of passage.
“17 is a child” YES!! Even 19 is a child. You’re a teen still! These parents that allow their children to exploit themselves and get s*xualized are disgusting and despicable.
Natalie Portman was seventeen when she was in The Phantom Menace, and she was playing a fourteen-year-old girl. George Lucas made it clear that she was seventeen, playing a fourteen-year-old girl, and seventeen and fourteen is still a young girl. He even let her skip the premiere because finals were the next day for her, which is age-appropriate for a seventeen-year-old girl. Seventeen was very different in 1998.
alabama barker not only acts and dresses like a grown woman but has been putting on a blaccent and cosplaying as a black girl for a while now 😭 like her dad isn't a rich and famous rockstar. It's sad that kids aren't allowed to be kids anymore these days.
i just turned 19 and i still don't see myself as grown at all, i feel like i'm still a kid really, the fact that these kids are even younger and less experienced with life than i am and doing and posting this kind of stuff is insane...
18 year olds is still practically a kid as soon as you turn 18 your mindset doesn’t magically change to teenager to adult, the reason people made 18 the “adult” age is because their probably pedophiles and like people under the age of 20
It's really scary and sad how there's no protection and boundaries for children that are clearly moving and growing up too fast from their parents. And I agree too, I used to be the same way younger, trying to show out but thankfully, my mom wasn't having it.
Jen is usually behind the camera and she knows the kinda content Dani posted and posts. She literally gave her daughter the choice to let her bf sleep in the same bed, like a couple together in the same house 🤢 sick crappy parenting. Cash cow
My 16 year old sis fell for this grown act & it’s so sad. My parents were super strict with my brother and I (I’m the oldest & my sister came 11 years after my brother) but when it comes to my sister they just kinda let her do whatever because “times have changed”. I’m 27 and my 16 year old sis looks close to my age if not older. It’s super sad but you can’t tell her anything , as I’m sure these parents can’t tell these “influencer teens” anything .
I remember being a little kid and wanting to have a highschool musical, cheetah girl, bratz lifestyle not an influencer lifestyle at the age of 14-16 I hate the peer pressure that they have on them now.
Exactly, I'm 19 and I used to look up to media like that and thought being a teen/tween would be so cool. Little girls don't have that anymore and I feel so bad for them. I would also like to add that I believe Bratz are problematic because of how sexualized their designs are, but that's a whole other conversation.
Being a 15 year old girl (16 in November), I can't even tell you how damaging it's been to grow up watching all of these girls who are my age but 100000x more attractive😞
Frl i got insecure at 10 and even tho I’m rlly not insecure now (I’m 14) & wish I looked better, it has caused me to struggle with anxiety even the slightest noises will make me go insane 🥲
These girls are NOT normal, please know that you are beautifully unique! Social media is so toxic and promote beauty standards that are literally unachievable (plastic surgery, editing). I guarantee you these girls later on will have regrets. Real life is beautiful and so is being a kid. Take your time growing up! You will thank yourself later. Wish you the best 🩷
@@zyriahangdush509 Adult women have baby faces, because they use anti-age creams that makes them look younger... And girls think that looking old will make them feel accepted...Smh🤦♀️
you see this in kpop a lot too. agencies have been debuting literal children, it is so disgusting.. there were so many instances where young idols who were 14-17 had to dance/dress provocatively for viewers and fans.its even more creepy when u find out that most of the company ceos and managers are middle aged men...edit:i also want to mention the double standard that they have,so new jeans, a girl group had a song called cookie which has rly provocative lyrics,and everyone got mad(as they should)but when enhypen,a boy group,released fever,another song w provactive lyrics AND dance,with jungwon and niki being minors and nobody batted an eye?
When I see stuff like this, I always say it’s the parents, not the kids. These kids aren’t raising themselves and they didn’t bring themselves into the world. It’s these parents whose morals left when they see money is involved.
When I was 16, AIM and chat rooms were popular. I never post the photos of myself because I was very shy of myself but I used to write disgusting stuff. I used to be a bully and used talk very sexual. Look back I was so embarrassed of my behavior. That wasn’t really who I am and good thing it’s in the past and it’s not going to follow me. Sad part about these girls past will follow them.
so glad i grew up in the era where a child star looked and acted like one(even tho they went thru alot behind the scenes🤦🏽♀️) kids today dnt even know abt kids bop or the amanda show or rushing to watch disney/nick/cartoon network
Exactly!! No one is saying that these child stars should walk on water or be perfect, but at least in the past it was shielded. I get shocked with the amount of times I see someone on my fyp that look 25 and I click their profile and their bio says 16. It is bad.
I would ALWAYS like religiously listen to Kidz Bop a couple years ago(2014-2019). But now that I’m 13, I see a lot of songs by Kidz Bop that aren’t exactly appropriate. And I remember a year ago I wanted to join Kidz Bop but thought against it bc in an article it stated that they were bullied.
Im 14 now and I’m happy I got to experience Dora and blaze and the monster racers etc it’s crazy to see 5 yr olds wearing long acrylics and 2 yr olds wearing crop tops and stuff I’m terrified for the new generations to come
Aya and Alabama beef online all the time and I cannot believe these are teens I thought they were mid 20s 🤦🏾♀️ these girls are younger than you but look older than you what kinda glitch in the matrix is this and like alabamas mother is a drug addict Travis has hella trauma and issues it’s no wonder she is out here acting like a playboy bunny
What is wrong with these parents. They have little to no talent so they pimp out their children. It's disgusting. I really don't like the outfits these little girls are wearing, its do disturbing. Thank you for the quote of the day, i really needed to hear that message today ❤ Also, your makeup looks absolutely beautiful, i love the blush.
I’m 19 and I still draw, wear plain clothes, spending my day watching Anime and my favorite gaming youtubers after coming back from my work and I’ve been told that I act way too childish for my age by my classmates and even by my close friends. I always get little jokey insults thrown at me by my friends when I don’t get a tiktok reference or wear what they call “outdated fashion”. Funny thing that all my friends were exactly like me like just a year ago until one of them got a lot of followers (I think 40k?)
Same. Currently 17 years old, but I'm chasing to age up around 18 years old. I'm not saying things to act like these "teenagers", I had two people in my family destroyed my life and my self-identity Guess what happened: *mental disorders and major depression.* My body is not in a good shape, I feel sluggish all the time and I'm very cynical when it comes to interacting with people. I cope all of them by watching anime and every day is a struggle. I couldn't even focus on my studies, I give a whole deep thoughts about not able to graduate from high school since the exam format is SPM in Malaysia. Don't tell me to get psychiatrist, mental health does not talk a lot among younger generations in my country since it's stigmatized as well. Similar like Japan, the needs for elder people is increasing. I did reach out for help but they didn't help a lot so which is a damn ass "thank you" (I went through narcissistic abuse for 10 years and here's what they said: "You should reconcile with your mom") Reconcile with a shitty narcissistic mother who doesn't love me back, compare me, sexualise me and so on feels like I'm double suiciding right now- 💀 My mom and my stepsister destroyed what I have and fucking greats, my mom still controls my life She doesn't want to see me happy. Just from those memories I have is enough for me not to care for my SPM at all, my brain have been deteriorated just by living with them Sorry that I vented out of nowhere, dear goodness it just got into me this much
Growing up, my family wasn't the most fortunate and well off,so when i looked at these child influencers especially piper rockelle (who is about 2 years older than me) made me feel envious of the "amazing" lives other people my age seem be having. Although, i remember my mother telling me to never envy somebody because you do not know what goes on behind closed doors, or in context, when the camera is turned off. And as i grew older, i saw the true meaning of it. I can't picture myself being forced to post content and sometimes questionable content and act "grown" in the name of making money, it is all off. I'm glad and eternally grateful my mom allows me to be a kid and still enjoy childhood, because once it's gone, one can never ever get it back, so I'm taking the chance to cherish it while i still have it I feel for these people truly.I feel in five to ten years time (or maybe even less) we'll be seeing more "I'm Glad My Mom Died " kind of books.
As a 17 year old, I hated being limited with clothes and social media by my parents from about 12-15 but now I’ve grown to appreciate the fact that my parents allowed me to experience these things such as shorts, bikinis and even having a boyfriend at an appropriate age
When I was 16 I would see all these unrealistic beauty standards and wonder why I never looked like that. I was definitely a pick-me though and would tell everyone who asked why I never wore makeup that makeup was for insecure people. I know now that makeup is used to enhance what you already have, these influencers don’t just wear makeup. They permanently change their face so they constantly look snatched and damn near plastic. It’s scary, I feel so bad for these kids growing up now, they can’t escape this false reality that we’ve allowed to flourish. They’re seeing people their own age looking like they’re in their 30’s. That has to be so confusing for these kids. I’m 22 now and I never wanna look like those ppl. They all look the same, no personality, just ass shaking and talkin ab making money. This isn’t what life was meant to be, I hope we can figure out a way to change the stigma. We gotta do something for these kids, this shit ain’t right.
I am 16 rn, I can't even begin to tell you how out of place I feel due to my classmates need to grow up. Everyone dresses in super tiny and short clothes, everyone insists on having sex before finishing high school, and it just scares me constantly. I grew so used to sexualization between girls my age, that I really didnt bat an eye when I was being sexualized by a groomer. This is so dangerous, and I really hate that even knowing how harmful growing up too fast is, I just can't help but look at myself and the mirror and think "what is wrong with me?"
Oh wow, I am so sorry Gracie. You will be in my prayers and thoughts for sure. Your comment made me smile❤️ I am so glad you can find a bit of peace and normalcy from watching my content. You are appreciated and celebrated. Can’t wait to see you beat this once again!!
It made me smile when you said a 19y/o is still a child. I feel like the years have been going by faster after I graduated so it was nice to hear that I'm still considered young
I’m also a teen born in 2007 and seeing what other girls my age or even younger, do on those social platforms is crazy to me. I understand that as a teen you want to act older, but what they are doing and mostly the fact that their parents approve of it, is just unacceptable.
In the 7th grade I was asked by 8th graders where I got my clothes after they “complimented them” and I responded “Mary Kate and Ashley from Walmart” unknowing it was a rhetorical question. I am 31 when I was 15 my MySpace song was by Disney teens “aly and aj chemicals react” and I remember being a sophomore and the kids in my journalism class making fun of the music I listened to. I didn’t realize i was low key being made fun of. I didn’t even know what MTV was when I was in Junior High, I only watched disney channels and everyone was watching Laguna Beach. I think I turned out okay!
I remember when I was 17 i was so sheltered, I didn’t know much about anything, I hung out with girls younger than me who were already active. They would be surprised that I wasn’t doing the same. These young influencers have parents who don’t care what they do since they are making so much money. Like why is a 16 year old twerking in a Ice Spice video?? Alabama Barker is on her way to being a rapper baby mama. 🙃 This whole IG baddie thing is really taking over. I’m glad I don’t have a daughter 😬
I literally cannot believe the Piper situation. I NEVER guessed that any of that happened. This is so disgusting. Her and the kids looked so happy but you never know what’s going on behind the scenes. Thank you for talking about it this. It was needed! Your content really help opens people’s eyes💕
They need to ban children and family social media , RU-vid videos because it disgusting and it's not right. This just makes me sick and see how money can destroy lives and soul 😤😔😑.
I turned 18 months ago, and I never really found myself wanting to act “grown.” It’s always occurred to me to be who I am and act my age. I feel sad for these girls, cause they are gonna regret their decisions in the future (mainly encouraged by their parents).
The things these parents allow/force their children to do for money is ridiculous. Social media is still new and we have no idea how this will affect these girls in the future. Even from what we can see now it’s dangerous, damaging, and traumatizing. As for Alabama her persona/aesthetic changed from cutesy suburban girl to grown urban woman. Which I do think is largely due to black culture being very “in right now” on social media. Seeing as shes an influencer of sorts, of course she’ll follow the trend.
The problem is always the parent. I don't care if a teenager started a tiktok account and is now acting grown - it is always the parent who is at fault. Children being exploited from an extremely young age - always online, no privacy, strangers having opinions and criticisms about them, can be detrimental to their mental health. Now these young girls you spoke of. I'm sure there is a multitude of reasons as to why they act the way that they do, but it also cannot be understated that they act like this out of a need for attention and validation. How sad is it that they have to constantly place themselves in such vulnerable situations for approval, attention, and validation - something they should be recieving from their parents/family
I'm almost 17, My birthday is September 20th 2006 and I'm not allowed to wear makeup, crop tops, have a boyfriend, and I got my first phone at 15 ( which my parents didn't buy) and it wasn't on. Couldn't call or text. I have a strict mom ( I don't have my dad in my life) and I'm grateful that I do. I'm not chasing boys, trying to have s*x, I don't wear revealing clothes . Sure I wear skirts, but that's because I like the school girl look, fariycore look, and Goth look. The one time I wore a crop top I took the initiative to put a long sports bra underneath that covered most of my skin and topped it with some High waisted jeans. My hair is usually short bubble curls that make me look a little older but NOT GROWN. I feel the women on the Internet could do a bit better at remembering that little girls are looking up to them, it's not the adult women's fault, but it's just the reality that's they are a main factor. So again I know it's not their fault but they could be a better example.
Ice spice and any adult who exploits or grooms a child should be held fully accountable regardless if they where already acting that way because they are adults they are old enough period and should do the right thing even though the parents are trash and only thinking about money but Ice Spice was only thinking about her video being popular so actually she was only thinking about money as well these kids are being exploited by everyone for money it's disgusting
I'm 15 and I'm nothing like the kids on Tiktok and Instagram. I don't wear full faces of makeup, the only beauty products I have are Chapstick, nail polish and soap which I think is perfectly fair and reasonable. I don't wear bikinis, crop tops and booty shorts. I wear baggy shirts, pants and shorts. I'm not into makeup or having sex like most preteens/teens are, I'm into normal teen things I like video games, reading, hanging out with friends ext. Most teens and preteens are trying to grow up to fast
You channel is so great; you can tell you put so much time, effort and research into each subject you talk about in your videos. This one was really interesting!
Sometimes, I’m so grateful to have been a self conscious teenager with a mom that wouldn’t let me buy clothes that were too mature for me. I wanted to be insta famous at 14 but didn’t even have the guts to post my own face or body in any form. At 16 is when I started feeling comfortable and confident with posting my face and barely started sharing my body. I wanted to have a « hoe » aesthetic so bad but all that was going on in the back of my mind was « what would my mom think about this? Would I be comfortable if my grandma saw my account? ». Now I’m 24 and comfortable and confident. No longer thirsty for male validation and no longer interested in sharing myself in a « grown » way. So glad I didn’t put myself out there like this for my safety and well-being.
Ryan’s parents are so greedy. His mom was arrested for shoplifting n blowing off all her court dates before Ryan ..His dad has branched off into streaming. Now he has twin sisters and it seems like the mom is grooming them for a career. They have to be constantly filming The Walmart toy line has been overkill It’s disgusting.
What I find interesting about the Alabama barker situation is that about 4 years ago she had a 20 year old creeping on her sending her dms (it was one of the members of the band echo smith)
Whew what people will do to kids for money and fame. The kids speaking out about piper’s channel tells me the adults know what they are doing and the pervs they are attracting. Also, why weren’t the other parents protecting their kids from being exposed to such exploitation.
In about 10-15 years after possible drug abuse, alcoholism, possible baby daddy drama these poor young souls will look back and think “where was my mom and why didn’t she protect me”. Sad.
I gave up on social media a long long time ago. Just look at Amanda Bynes and Jeanette McCurdy that's solid proof on how damaging social media and money hungry parents can be. This is sad😔
A good example with this is definitely piper rockelle. Her mom has pushed her to do these inappropriate, thumbnails, posting in a bikini and doing the most disgusting things in media. I used to be a fan but now I’m just over it with the boyfriend thing. Team pavin or team liper like I’m done.
I’m 15 and I have a cousin whose 13 and I accidentally found his ig account and went through it and there were pictures of him vaping and a picture of him shirtless while wearing chains and making gang signs and he shared a post that said “hot city girl starter pack” I was literally in awe😭😭 when I was 13 I was watching anime all day and quoting cringey anime quotes ,dating or smoking were never a thing for me and it still is💀💀
call them out👏🏻👏🏻im sick and tired of people saying kids growing up too fast is normal nowadays when it shouldn’t be!!! we need to bring back childhood bc the memories it gives you are the best but now kids are getting traumatized by adults too young
I remember seeing a video of people streaming count downs till certain kid influencers turn 18 so grown ass men and pedophiles can start harassing them and asking for an only fans which is so gross 🤮
I feel like the reason girls do this is because they want to be validated by older people so they can feel good about themselves. And I know this because my friends are going through this, wearing full face make up, SHORT skirts, crop tops, shorts, etc. It's really sad but it's how society is right now. I wish we could change it. Whenever I go to school people look at me weirdly for not using make up or dressing revealing but I'm only 13!! I shouldn't be doing that stuff and it pains me to see girls grow up so fast instead of enjoying their childhood. They think they own their childhood to someone but they don't.
Im 22 years old. Word of advice stay true to yourself! Don’t let peer pressure control the way you live your life, live your life how you want to live it and never let criticism let you down. You are unique and its better to be yourself than to be a follower like everyone else ❤🦋
This is sad 😔... like oh my gosh. I'm at a loss for words, it's really giving "I'm not a regular mom, I'm a cool mom" from the parents, like YIKES! We have child labor laws right? But no laws & I mean strict condemnation for children in the public eye, social media & the entertainment industry? We see already the kids in professional entertainment, Hollywood & or Dance Mom's etc & what that does to these kids psychologically. Some people should not be allowed to take their babies home after birth, as dark as that is to say. Some people are not equipped to love & nurture children the right way. And lastly on the Danielle Khan girl, you don't need a birth certificate to tell you that she noticeably looks 12/13 in her older vids, without the make-up, very child-like in the face. It's disgusting, all of it. Off topic, I can see where weirdos like Sam Levinson gets his inspiration for some of his characters (ie. Cassie & Maddy) on Euphoria & why shows like that have so much weird popularity & I'll never forget a video that went viral from a Euphoria press tour that they were doing.. or something like that, I dunno where there were fans in the audience asking questions & there was a little girl who was a fan asking questions & the cast was jaw dropped. Our current media & depiction of high schools don't help either. I remember as early as the mid 2000's, kids & even celebrities would dress like they just came out of the mall in child to teen friendly wear (Hollister, American Eagle, Von Dutch, Hot Kohl's, Juicy Couture etc)
I turn 19 in October and the older I get the more blessed I am that I actually enjoyed my adolescence feeling and acting like a teen. My parents were strict, I didn’t have social media till like 7th and 8th grade, I expressed my personal style while still having slight boundaries with my mum (she was pretty flexible in what I wore tho but it was never anything too much, I suppose I was a little modest). It’s unfortunate that young girls these days just jump from 12 years old to 17 way too quickly. Not mentally of course. But caking on makeup and being hyper sexual on the Internet, and it’s scary and sad.
I don’t think”caking”on makeup is a bad thing.Y’all wanna talk about the over sexualization but don’t realize you’re doing it yourself.Looking a certain way doesn’t really determine how you act.
Promiscuous is the wrong word in so many of these examples (clothing, photos etc.) and is even further damaging language for these kids. Promiscuity is an act, a very specific one. Either way, so sad this level of exploitation just continues to grow unchecked. It’s genuinely going to take some big legislation to stop parents from letting their kids become cash cows like this.
Thankyou, that annoyed me too! None of this stuff is ok for 13yrolds, but a girl or woman who dresses sexy isn't necessarily promiscuous, & if it's an adult woman, who cares if she _is_ promiscuous? Let's not be sl*t-shaming.
And I hope you understand what I meant. I never called any of these young ladies out of their name or insinuated they were doing such acts. I made sure to reiterate that when speaking on Alabama and her allegedly having numerous partners. However, in these photos, clothing, etc they can be perceived as such.
@@beth7935 Did I say any of them were "promiscuous"? No, I stated that's how their behavior can be perceived with how they dress and act. Let's stop with the accusation of sl*t shaming. We're speaking on children.
This is a reason I don’t want kids..I can’t handle having a child acting like this. Even though I don’t tolerate bad behaviors from my daycare kids I don’t frequently interact with older children so I have no clue how to correct that. And I’m not having a child to figure it out as I go..I find that irresponsible..I can raise kids up to 12 lol
No hate Toni you make the best content and great commentary but I think we should make it clear that sending a child's underwear to a grown man is not fulfilling his sexual fantasies, it's fulfilling his pedophilic desires. We gotta call it what it is. Again no hate! Everything in this video is so sad and I feel for these children who are losing out on their childhood all because the adults around them failed them and used them for their own greed
the thing that makes the Alabama barker situation even crazier is that my mom rejected Travis barker in the early 2000’s because she was in a relationship that turned into an abusive relationship my mom says she wishes that she would’ve just dated Travis instead if she knew that her ex boyfriend would abuse her
Dude Travis is a POS. Pulled a gun on Shanna and is clearly still getting back at Shanna by sexualising her daughter. Your mom dodged a bullet. Abusers are bad enough without more money and enablers than god…
as a 14 year old, i believe i was around 9-10 wanting to be like piper rockelle and her friends. and being muslim girl, it bring jealousy and wants you to change or leave your religion just to satisfy your dreams. 4 years later and im still muslim and proud, this exploiting little girls like me is just crazy and digusting, no one should go through that and the way it makes younger kids want to change themselves and wear revealing clothes or wanting boyfriends at such young ages is not good at all. i just hope the world can change and not exploit young boys and girls like me.
What is scary is that I know as a teenager I would get dressed up in skimpy clothing and walk around my bedroom pretending I was a super model. But no one saw that. I can't imagine just how vulnerable I'd have been if we had more than myspace when I was a teenager or if I had a mom that let me post any pictures I took with disposable cameras that were in sexy looking clothing. These mom's really don't want to keep their children safe. I hated my mom caring what I did and where I went as a teenager, but as an adult I'm so grateful she kept me safe during those years when I could have been take advantage of so easily. Edit: I wish she was still with us, because if she was this video would make me call her and thank her.
All these people talking ab Aya, Alabama ect being grown but hated on positive child appropriate influencers like Jojo Siwa nd to this day tell her she’s childish and need to grow up. Personally I think there needs no be a nice medium, there isn’t much teen content out there it’s just straight from child to adult content. Growing up we had teen magazines and tv shows for this stage in life. That-girl Lay is the only teen influencer I can think of today that makes actual age appropriate content
as a teenager who is not on instagram I loved this video, you covered a NEEDED topic indeed. I myself see children younger than me being on social media and consuming all the stuff while their parents don’t restrict them at all? it’s sickening.
Selling/pimping your kids out is TRULY a disgusting thing to me!! I could NEVER 🙅🏾♀️ .. and it's funny how you started off with Ryan Kaji! I see his Ryan's World previews all the time when me and my daughter are watching cartoons. Crazy!
Not so fun piece of internet history: remember when Shane Dawson was in drama for calling a 6 year old sexy for wearing makeup and dressing grown? That child was Alabama Barker and Travis called him out
I really appreciate you talking about this. Parents are exploiting their kids for money, companies are exploiting kids for money, and social media companies are exploiting kids for money. When did that become ok?!
Sadly, I don’t think anything will change with teens nowadays. Like you said, in a few years they will look back at stuff they posted and said and cringe and wish they never did those things. Its just maturity and time🤷🏽♀️ hopefully more parents talk to their teens and teach them what’s appropriate at their age and what’s not
Tbh it’s not just teens nowadays but it has generally always been kind of a trend to act older than your age as a teenager (I’m not saying everyone) and a lot of the times they don’t care if their parents tell them what they are allowed to do and what not.
As a gypsy girl (17yrs) to my family from 15-17 you can dress older etc but if my mom was to see me do ANY of this she'd kill me,for us if we were to do any shit like this out "life would be ruined" ✋😭
