Social media influencer Emilie Kiser, known for her glamorous lifestyle and viral content, has revealed that her husband, Avery, refuses to allow their young son to be featured on her platforms. The decision has ignited discussions about the ethics of sharing children's lives online.
Why Avery Drew the Line
Avery, who prefers to stay out of the limelight, believes their son should have the right to choose whether he wants a digital footprint when he's older. "He doesn’t want our child’s face or personal moments plastered across the internet," Emilie explained in a recent interview.
The Growing Debate Over Kids and Social Media
This isn’t an isolated case. Many parents and experts are questioning the long-term effects of growing up in the public eye. Some argue that children’s privacy should be protected until they can consent, while others see family vlogging as harmless fun.
- Privacy Concerns: Children may face identity theft or cyberbullying.
- Future Autonomy: Kids might resent their early exposure later in life.
- Monetisation: Some influencers profit from their children’s images.
How Emilie Balances Her Brand and Family
Despite Avery’s stance, Emilie continues to share glimpses of motherhood—just without her son’s face. "I respect Avery’s boundaries, but I also want to connect with other mums," she said. Her compromise includes posting about parenting struggles while keeping her child’s identity private.
As the conversation around kids and social media evolves, Emilie and Avery’s approach highlights a middle ground for influencer families navigating this complex issue.
