Even worse are the kid influencers on YouTube. Kids advertising to other kids. And parents trying to turn their own kids into influencers.
The whole thing is just gross.
- HNLurker2 7y agoyou mean parents forcefully making their children prodigies in teenis, chess etc. is bad? same goes with youtubers
- michaelmrose 7y agoYou don't see the difference between Chess and trying to be famous for being famous?
- sushid 7y agoI think there's huge amount of difference between chess or tennis prodigies promoting their activity by teaching kids the proper techniques vs. Timmy unboxing a new box of Legos and dunking them in Jello #sponsored.
- JasonFruit 7y agoTennis, chess, violin, singing — these are at least skills that may be valuable later in life. "Instagram influencer" is a net negative for the kid's future. But, yes, I'd say parents making their children excel at anything by force are doing it wrong, and not setting them up for lifelong satisfaction.
- smnplk 7y agoYep, some parents are really making narcissistic douchebags
