And the details of his life and e.g. speech delay not broadcast to his mothers 4.4 million followers (and whoever else wants to see as it's an open page)

Imagine having your life broadcast like that in such detail with no consent or consideration of his future Sad

@BenCooperisaGod it's already happening.

That man who was the naked baby on the Nirvana album sued.

Did you consider rephrasing your OP and using additional needs rather than the actual diagnosis or not naming the influencer's child ?

Not the point of your post but many people don't follow her so you've spread what you consider sensitive information to people who didn't know.

I think that SM platforms have been far too slow to react to kids being used for clicks and views. I know that a child in France managed to get a court to force their parent to stop posting images of them on SM but how long until an j influencer's child has to sue to force their parents to remove their videos and images from online platforms?

[quote AChocolateOrangeaday]@Gonnagetgoing and she calls herself "stepmum".

They are not married are they? A broken engagement I think but she definitely isn't that kids Stepmum.[/quote]
@AChocolateOrangeaday

My son’s dad’s gf isn’t married to his dad, she’s been in his life for 7 years, she’s all he’s ever known, she’s his step mum. He loves her and she loves him. Even if they split she will be in his life forever.

You don’t get to label people just cos you see someone you don’t like doing something, this is why missing your business is always the best action.

They might get married tomorrow and split up next month, does that mean that she is step mum an accepted?

Stop worrying about other people’s experiences and worry about why all these people are worried about a kid, Ronnie in this case, worry about why you all even know his every day life so much you feel you can have an opinion about it.
Stop over investing in people’s children and start investing in yours 😂

seriousandloyal · 19/04/2022 09:26

Agree with you OP, absolutely dreadful exploitation of children which needs to be regulated.

IDontDrinkTea · 19/04/2022 09:28

@Daqqe

You think that’s bad - the Sacone Jolys very publically broadcast their 7 year old sons transition from being a boy to a girl. The child now has long hair, a girls name, wears girls clothes to school and at home & had a gender coming out party. All of which is put on full display for millions to watch on social media every day. The kid may genuinely be transgender but he’s 7 and it absolutely should be a private journey done away from all social media.

Jonathon Joly is an abomination of a parent. He doesn’t give two shits about protecting his children at all. He exploits them for all he’s worth. They are his pay cheque.

I hate these influencers. Hinch is one of the worst. People are now obsessed with having spotless, mega organised Insta perfect homes because of her & feel like complete failures when their houses are messy, their kids dare to want non-beige toys or they can’t afford for to make it look perfect. This perfect house aesthetic is as damaging as the perfect body one in my opinion 😒

It was when someone commented on one of his tiktok videos to ask a question about the transition. And Jonathon replied by saying “stay tuned!” It really showed to me how they treat their children like a real life soap opera 😓

Awwww no I’m not but you’ve just shown yourself to be one of tattles finest, you’re sheep will be so proud you’re hating on a post this early in the morning 🤣

FYI you don’t have to be a fan of someone to understand that you don’t have to talk shit about them, or their kids 😊

CareBearsCare · 19/04/2022 09:30

@AChocolateOrangeaday That man has a Nevermind tattoo and has recreated the cover many times.

Newpuppymummy · 19/04/2022 09:32

I unfollowed PTWM for the same reason. Used to like her but now she exploits her children for money and broadcasts their whole family life daily. So sad. The kids have no privacy at all

That case was Hmm. I quite liked Dave Grohl's quote though

When asked about his thoughts on Elden re-creating the photo several times as an adult, he added: “Listen, he’s got a ‘Nevermind’ tattoo. I don’t.”

Back to RH, I think he deserves not to have a thread about him on MN.

AChocolateOrangeaday · 19/04/2022 09:37

@Hertsgirl10 She's your Son's girlfriend until he marries her, no matter what "label" you use.

blackheartsgirl · 19/04/2022 09:39

The ingham family are very worrying. Very much isolating thier kids and putting them in potentially dangerous situations through sheer stupidity. There’s other stuff about them too.

It’s about time laws were passed on influencers and you tubers. But I can’t see it happening in the near future sadly

Butitsnotfunnyisititsserious · 19/04/2022 09:42

I think it's disgusting how influencers decide to remove their child's/childrens privacy to make money for themselves. Everyone deserves the right for privacy until they are old enough to say so. Anyone who defends parents exploiting their children to make money, shouldn't have children. Your kids aren't your meal ticket, they deserve a right to privacy.

CareBearsCare · 19/04/2022 09:42

@Yellownightmare

If you know who Ronnie Hinch is then you're part of the problem.
I know who Mrs Hinch is because of MN and the fact that Flash cleaning sprays have her name printed on it. I've never followed her so she doesn't make money from me but I see posts about her every so often so I know of her.
berksandbeyond · 19/04/2022 09:43

@Hertsgirl10 i’m not on tattle, I just think Hinch is a crap mum and feel sorry for the sheep that follow her and spent all their money in b&m trying to be like their millionaire idol 😂

[quote AChocolateOrangeaday]@Hertsgirl10 She's your Son's girlfriend until he marries her, no matter what "label" you use.[/quote]
@AChocolateOrangeaday

Well she’s my son’s dad’s girlfriend cos son is 7.

Regardless what anyone thinks, she’s been a mum to him for 7 years and that’s what he feels and has had all his life.
What others think don’t matter to him, which is going back to people minding their own.

What Gemma Collins or Mrs hinch does, really shouldn’t affect your day or worry you or anyone else this much.

Bogofftosomewherehot · 19/04/2022 09:44

never seen her site. Never heard of her child. Surely, but following influencers and discussing their content on a public forum you're part of the problem?

Again come with some new lines if that’s what you want people to believe.

@Hertsgirl10 i’m not sure why you think I’d care even if I was on tattle, I used to be on GOMI years ago so no stranger to a forum but don’t have time nowadays 🤣

You seem very invested in defending her, perhaps a hobby would be a good idea?

@berksandbeyond

I dunno what Gomi is and I would believe you didn’t have time if you didn’t just spend all Tuesday morning slagging off a women you don’t know but hey ho.

I have a hobby it’s troll slaying, I’m not invested in anyones lives, I just don’t see why people have to be so nasty.

Calling anyone a shit mum, that you have no proof of, is definitely nasty.

berksandbeyond · 19/04/2022 10:00

@Hertsgirl10 GOMI was get off my internet’s and it was a forum for shit talking bloggers etc before tattle was a thing. I’ve been on mumsnet this morning because my daughter just got her school place, sorry if thats upsetting to you 😂

I’m not a troll- with the information that Hinch has put out there willingly, I think she’s a bad mum. I am entitled to that opinion, if you think she’s a good mum then fine - we all have different standards

Hmm the difference is I don’t have an opinion on her parenting because I don’t know her and don’t make assumptions on her parenting as I have no idea how she parents.

It fits your narrative to say that she’s a shit mum cos you’re determined that she is, for some reason.

Nothing to do with standards, I personally think any mum’s that make other mums feel like shit and feel the need to slag them off on multiple platforms, are the ones with quite low standards themselves and are questionable parents as well.

Silverswirl · 19/04/2022 10:09

@Hertsgirl10 absolute biggest load of shit I’ve read today.
We all should be worried. This is affecting children who don’t yet have their own voice. They need someone to stand up for them, protect them and if others see a child getting potentially harmed then absolutely they should be the voice to say ‘hang on this doesn’t feel right’
You may want to turn the other way when you see a child getting exploited or harmed but thank fuck that others don’t feel the same way and actually do something to protect children when the people who are meant to protect them arnt.

100% agree with you

sweeneytoddsrazor · 19/04/2022 10:14

being an influencer is a legitimate job and hard work. It takes skill and time.

Is it? Does it? So what skills do you need,

@Silverswirl

So by protecting him you think slagging off his mum is the best way to go around it?

And you’re really preaching to the wrong person about child protection here, I get called all kinds on here for telling mums to protect their kids, I have lots of experience within child protection and there’s nothing you can teach me on a thread that’s named a child themselves, about child protection.

So what are you going to do about this child that’s being harmed? Potentially.
What is it that you’re doing to protect all these kids then, or any others that are actually being harmed?
I have never turned the other way from a child in harms way, quite the opposite.

Been called all sorts on this very site for sticking up for people’s children, for pointing out the dangers, When on a thread with Many pages only 3 people agreed a child was in danger the rest were saying I was a paranoid wreck and my kids will be nervous wrecks and a lot worse - all for saying some people need to protect their own kids 😂

Yea I’m not the one to accuse of turning a blind to child protection love.
