Should Family Vlogs Exist? Parasocial Relationships With Other People's Children

  • Summary

  • Family vloggers are not a new thing. Since the dawn of YouTube, people have been uploading edited versions of their daily life to the platform, often featuring (or starring) their kids.

It's often entertaining and cute and excellent escapism (I can vouch for all of this!), but is it okay?
