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

@Hertsgirl10 seems like we’re the only ones with a brain cell in here

@MrsKC121 once anything is posted online publicly people can do as they please with it. Anyone posting any content of their children on a public platform should only post what they'd be okay for anyone to see and for what purpose, also bearing in mind once it's out there its out there forever and the children have zero say in what's posted. Tattle is not the biggest problem here by far.

@MrsKC121 if you weren’t so busy ranting maybe you would’ve been able to read my posts which discuss all influencers and the need for child protection rules against exploitation of all children on social media.

I also find it very concerning you are downplaying a photo of a half naked child on the toilet exposed to millions of people as not a big deal. It certainly is a huge deal imo. Maybe you are just completely naive about the realities of the internet.

MrsKC121 · 19/04/2022 13:04

[quote berksandbeyond]@MrsKC121 what vile opinion? That I think she’s a shit mum? Who cares! Maybe she thinks i’m a shit mum? I’m not bothered. Doubt she’s losing sleep over it while she counts her cash from the morons 🤣[/quote]
Wow. Who the fuck are you to say she’s a shit mum! That’s beyond disgusting and is a massive reflection on you as a person.

NobleYeats1 · 19/04/2022 13:05

@Hertsgirl10 as suspected you can’t answer a simple question on this.

Downplaying? Ok so what’s your take on pampers adverts that show kids half naked? It’s no different! Your selective outrage is so boring, I think you need to calm yourself down

berksandbeyond · 19/04/2022 13:07

You’re deluded if you think people don’t judge other people on their parenting, that’s half the threads on here 😂

Like I asked of someone else - what’s the difference between her doing that and an advert for pampers? They sometimes show half naked kids as well which are seen by millions of people. What’s the difference??

MrsKC121 · 19/04/2022 13:12

Case in point. THIS is the issue. Weirdos on tattle discussing someone else’s development all fucking day. How is this even allowed? If it’s not your kid, you don’t have the right to an opinion. End of.

NobleYeats1 · 19/04/2022 13:13

@MrsKC121 the difference is the appearance of children in tv or theatre is heavily regulated with rules around how children are presented, the hours they work and the renumeration they get for appearing. How do you not know this? No such rules or regulations exist on social media leading to exploitation of children for profit by their parents.

If anyone needs to calm down it is you. Posters here are trying to have an adult conversation about the need to stop influencers using their children in this way.

I am not sure what you coming on here hysterically lashing out at posters and appointing yourself defender of mrs hinch is contributing.

So how is Ronnie presented any differently? You’re making out like he’s a work horse. You see 5 second snips of their day that is all. It’s no different from you or I taking a pic or a quick video of our children. Please, just stop making this into something it isn’t just to suit your deranged narrative. You are the problem here, not influencers

Jesus Christ exactly!!!!

Everyone’s talking bollox but the thread is about this and this is the reality of it.

But yea keep going on about not answering a question that has been answered 😂😂

MrsKC121 · 19/04/2022 13:17

@Hertsgirl10 yet we are the hysterical ones 😂😂 honestly, this is just an extension of tattle only people can actually have a difference of opinion without being banned for “spam”. Dickheads 😂

NippyWoowoo · 19/04/2022 13:20

@ssd

Its great to be blissfully ignorant of all this shite.
Good for you, you deserve a medal
NobleYeats1 · 19/04/2022 13:20

@MrsKC121 it’s different as it’s unregulated. There is no third party body ensuring that his welfare is accounted for. How is this so hard for you to understand? I note you post some screenshots from a website of people talking about Ronnie. You do know if there were rules about not using your children as an influencer that wouldn’t happen?

You are just further proving my point that it is wrong to put these children out there to millions to be discussed, have their photos screenshotted and used for god knows what else.

The more attention brought to all this the better so hopefully Instagram will step in to regulate or even better influencers will learn it will damage their brand to show their children in this way and will stop using them.

Oh so the fact that there’s no rules means that what people are doing on Tattle is right? I’m astonished that you don’t think that, that’s the real issue here. Ok insta is unregulated but again you have failed to point out what the difference is in Mrs Hinch’s content to that of “regulated” ads. There is none. All you go off is your weird opinion that her children are at harm, no, they are not. You simply just don’t like her content and there’s a really easy solution for you there….

yomommasmomma · 19/04/2022 13:25

There is no debate here, she and her fellow influencers are wrong to profit from putting their children in danger.

I quite like her house renovation content, but when she brings the kids in I ignore those posts because I feel so strongly that it is not a safe thing to do.

I also acknowledge the fact that her content is not reality, but a sugar coated version, designed to sell cheap crap to her fans, thus allowing her to make a lot of money. If she was able to do this without using her children, I would say good for her, but since she insists on giving the kids zero privacy and putting them in danger......yes....she is displaying poor parenting.

Putting them in danger? HOW?! 🤯
NobleYeats1 · 19/04/2022 13:30

@MrsKC121 I hadn’t even heard of tattle until you started going on about it. Again if you would calm down and actually read what I’m saying if influencers didn’t use their children in this way there wouldn’t be any discussion of her child online on tattle or anywhere else and what is more worrying to me the use of these photos by nefarious individuals. It would be lovely if the internet was a super nice safe space with rainbows and bunnies and people could post what they want but we don’t live in that world and it’s up to parents to protect their children. Once their images are out there they are out there and the children can’t consent to hundreds of photos of them being put online.

yomommasmomma · 19/04/2022 13:32

I am sorry to say it but she has made them in to paedophile fodder, with their pictures (including ones of them vulnerable) spread across the internet.

She has also wittingly and unwittingly given out details of lives, including where they live. It is utter madness.

NobleYeats1 · 19/04/2022 13:32

@MrsKC121 Putting them in danger? HOW?! 🤯

Are you really that naive? Hundreds of photos of young children sometimes partially clothed online for everyone to see….

DeyHuggee · 19/04/2022 13:38

I think this is actually really worrying, she is by no means the only one who posts enough to make their home easily identifiable but I'd be terrified. Molly mae was burgled and made a big thing about not sharing anything in the future about her home- but has a house account with tonnes of identifiable features and said where it is, baffling. I guess the allure of free crap is too tempting though.

And if you think that then you’re deluded. By you saying that you’re of the opinion that no one should post pics online of their children. Who are you to say what people can and can’t do? It’s none of your bloody business

ENoeuf · 19/04/2022 14:13

Isn’t the difference that children on tv and films are acting and presenting a character not themselves? I don’t know, I don’t love sharing your childrens lives without their informed consent especially medical or sensitive information.
