Mom forbids her 13-year-old daughter from appearing in her boy-mom sister-in-law's family vlogs: 'My sister-in-law kept pestering her to braid hair and decorate cookies for content.'

If she doesn't want her daughter appearing in family vlogs, she has every right to forbid it. Her daughter is acting more mature than her sister-in-law

If you've ever had a weird feeling about family vloggers, you're not alone. I never really understood the appeal of content where parents narrate their families' day-to-day lives to an audience of total strangers. Like, why do I care that you're going to little Billy's Little League game this morning and have to cut up orange slices for the whole team?  I understand if an individual adult wants to vlog their daily routine and make their living doing so, but vlogging your kids just seems like a slippery slope into exploiting your child's labor. An adult understands the ramifications and risks of filming themselves in their home and in public, but a kid does not. Kids are expected to obey their parents, and if their parents expect them to appear on camera in a family vlog, it's not like they have the power to say, "Mother and Father, I do not consent to my image being broadcast on YouTube for the public to see." I mean, they could say that, but the chances of vlogger parents who pay the mortgage with their YouTube videos respecting their child's wish on this matter are slim to none.
