>> WELCOME BACK.

MANY SOCIAL MEDIA INFLUENCERS

USE THEIR CHILDREN AS CHARACTERS

IN THE CONTENT THEY POST.

SOME OF THESE KIDS ARE PURSUING

LEGAL ACTION NOW TO MAKE SURE

THEY'RE FINANCIALLY COMPENSATED

FOR IT.

YEAH.

THERE'S A LONG HISTORY OF CHILD

STARS BEING TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF

BY THEIR PARENTS.

THIS IS STARTING TO FEEL THE

SAME WAY, BECAUSE PEOPLE HAVE

BEEN SHOOTING THEIR CHILDREN

SINCE THEY WERE BORN.

NOBODY ASKED THE KIDS.

NOW PEOPLE KNOW THE KIDS' LIVES,

GOT ALL THEIR BUSINESS.

>> SUING THE COMPANIES OR SUING

THE PARENTS?

>> THEY'RE SUING PARENTS.

>> NOW IT'S IN THE PALM OF YOUR

HAND.

BACK WHEN IT WAS CHILD ACTORS,

PEOPLE GROWING UP ON SETS, YOU

HAD TO HAVE PARENTS THAT SHOWED

UP, KIDS HAD TO GET THESE PARTS,

BE IN THESE ROLES.

WE TALKED ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED.

RAVEN SHARED A LOT OF THAT.

THEY'VE TALKED ABOUT WHAT GOES

ON THERE.

NOW ANY PARENT CAN DO THAT.

>> YEAH.

>> WELL, IN THE ENTERTAINMENT

INDUSTRY, THEY PUT IN PLACE A

LAW REQUIRING COMPANIES TO SET

ASIDE 15% OF EARNINGS TO GO TO

THE CHILD IN A BLIND TRUST, BUT

THERE'S NO PROTECTIONS FOR THE

INFLUENCERS.

>> THAT'S THE THING, WHY ARE YOU

MAKING YOUR CHILD YOUR BRAND?

I DON'T UNDERSTAND THAT.

I MEAN, THESE INFLUENCER

PARENTS.

WE ALL KNOW WHO THEY ARE.

WE DON'T NEED TO NAME-CHECK

THEM.

YOU DO SEE IT ON SOCIAL MEDIA

ALL THE TIME.

THEY'RE DOING STUFF WITH THEIR

KIDS, TELLING YOU HOW TO RAISE

YOURS, AND ALL OF THIS.

SO THEIR CHILDREN BECOME THEIR

BRAND.

THEY MAKE MONEY OFF THEIR

CHILDREN.

I THINK IT'S SUCH A VIOLATION OF

A CHILD.

HERE AT THIS TABLE WE TALK ABOUT

OUR FAMILIES.

WE'RE SORT OF REQUIRED TO DO IT,

IT'S PART OF THE GIG, AND WE'RE

PUBLIC FIGURES.

AS YOU NOTICE, I DON'T PUT A LOT

OF PICTURES UP OF PALOMA,

BECAUSE SHE DOESN'T LIKE IT, AND

SHE AGENCY TO SAY NO.

SHE'S ALWAYS SAID NO ABOUT IT.

GABRIEL, ON THE OTHER HAND,

DOESN'T CARE.

I DON'T WANT TO MAKE MY KIDS MY

BRAND.

I DON'T UNDERSTAND THE

MOTIVATION BEHIND IT.

>> WE TALK ABOUT SO MANY THINGS

HERE, ABOUT SO MANY SCHOOL

SHOOTINGS, WE TALK HERE ABOUT

PEDOPHILIA.

IT FEELS TO ME THAT THE WORLD IS

SO DANGEROUS OUT THERE, AND IF

YOU'RE PUTTING THESE PICTURES OF

THESE LITTLE KIDS, THEY'RE GOING

TO BE EASILY RECOGNIZABLE.

YOU KNOW, YOU'RE PUTTING A

TARGET ON THEIR BACK.

YOU'RE MAKING THEM THAT MUCH

MORE VULNERABLE TO BAD THINGS.

>> THEY SHOULD BE OLD ENOUGH TO

GIVE CONSENT TO IT, I THINK.

FRANCE PASSED A LAW ALLOWING

KIDS TO SUE THEIR PARENTS OVER

THIS KIND OF THING.

IT'S NOT AS EASY IN THE UNITED

STATES, BECAUSE PARENTS HAVE

LEGAL IMMUNITY FOR LAWSUITS

AGAINST THEM WHEN THE KIDS ARE

MINORS, BELIEVE IT OR NOT, WHEN

MOST OF THE DAMAGE IS DONE.

>> 18 AND UP NOW, GOING YOU HAD

AN OPPORTUNITY TO ASK ME, AND

WHERE'S MY MONEY.

>> YEAH, YOU OWE ME MONEY.

>> WE'VE SEEN THE CRUEL

UNDERBELLY OF SOCIAL MEDIA.

WE SEE THE HATEFUL, MEAN, CRUEL

COMMENTS.

I DON'T THINK IT'S FAIR FOR A

KID TO BE SUBJECTED TO THEM.

PEOPLE SAY ANYTHING ON THE

INTERNET.

THEY'LL ATTACK KIDS'

APPEARANCES.

>> ABSOLUTELY.

>> THE WAY THEY SPEAK, THE WAY

THEY CARRY THEMSELVES.

WE SHOULDN'T SUBJECT KIDS ANY

EARLIER.

>> WE TALK A LOT ABOUT THE ILLS

OF SOCIAL MEDIA, BUT I WAS

STRUCK THIS WEEK BY ONE OF THE

BENEFITS OF SOCIAL MEDIA,

BECAUSE BUT FOR SOCIAL MEDIA AND

THE ACTIVISIM AND DEMANDS FOR

JUSTICE FOR RALPH YARL, THAT

84-YEAR-OLD RACIST, YOU KNOW,

WITH A TRIGGER FINGER, WOULD

STILL BE SLEEPING IN HIS OWN

HOME.

>> WELL, I WILL SAY THIS, LOOK,

MY KID IS -- YOU KNOW, SHE DOES

HER THING, AND SHE DOES HER

THING.

YOU KNOW, BUT NEVER WITHOUT HER

PERMISSION EVER.

I MEAN, SHE'S A GROWN WOMAN.

HER KIDS ARE NOT -- YOU KNOW,

ONE OF THE KIDS DECIDED SHE WAS

GOING TO TRY SOMETHING, AND SHE

DECIDED SHE WAS GOING TO DO IT.

WITH THE LITTLEST ONES, NOBODY

DOES THAT, BECAUSE IT'S TOO EASY

FOR PEOPLE TO TAKE THOSE

PICTURES AND DO ALL KINDS OFTHI.

>> YEAH.

>> SO WHEN YOU'RE DOING THESE

THINGS WITH YOUR KIDS, KEEP IN

MIND THAT YOU MAY THINK IT'S

JUST PEOPLE WHO LIKE YOU, WHO

ARE LOOKING AT THESE PICTURES,

IT'S NOT.

IT'S PEOPLE WHO HAVE NEFARIOUS

DESIRES.

AND ALSO, IF YOU'RE MAKING MONEY

ON YOUR FAMILY PUT SOME MONEY

AWAY FOR THE KIDS.

IT IS NOT THE KID'

RESPONSIBILITY TO SUPPO
