 RAISED BY YOUTUBE

The most-watched YouTube video to date is ‘Baby Shark Dance’, said Susan Wojcicki, CEO
of YouTube, in a Bloomberg interview last year. It currently has over 10 billion views on the
streaming platform. That’s 2.1 billion more than the number of people on planet Earth.

In a 2020 Pew study, YouTube emerged as the most popular platform among children. But
while there is no doubt that huge numbers of children around the world are watching YouTube
videos, and many are watching harmless entertainment such as ‘Baby Shark Dance’, there is
growing concern about some of the unsupervised content being accessed by children.

Over the last few years, YouTube has toughened its approach to policing content for children
but, with 400 hours of video uploaded to YouTube every minute, vetting malicious content is
difficult.

YouTube Kids, the kid-targeted version of Youtube claims to take full responsibility of the
content shared with viewers under 12 years of age. Anything obscene, inappropriate or even
slightly violent is removed. But this does not take into account everything that is problematic
being shared with children. There are loopholes and not all the videos passing through these
filters are trouble-free.

Kids are spending more time on the streaming platform YouTube than ever. It’s not just
content considered inappropriate for young children that is affecting them

Eshal, a preschooler spends three hours daily on YouTube, says Ayesha Malik, 28, her mom,
and a teacher. Likewise, her classmate Fatima spends an average of four hours on YouTube
daily. “She returns from school and, after lunch, watches YouTube, a habit that began in Covid-
lockdowns that we cannot seem to break,” says her mother, Tehreem Khan 34, a government
officer.

Nine-year-old Zayan got hooked on YouTube when he lived abroad with his family. “Without
house help, I was busy doing chores and it would be easier to get things done if Zayan were
occupied,” says Mehreen Sohail, 33, his mother and a housewife.

“Now, that we are in Pakistan and I have house help, I have more time for him. So we have
reduced his screen time to 40 minutes per day.”

But it’s not just ‘objectionable’ content that’s always the problem. Children and parents may
not realise that a lot of YouTube content they are viewing is, essentially, an advertisement,
because sponsored videos have the feel and look of organic content. Children are highly
vulnerable to advertising and remain an important target group for marketers, both because of
their impact on their parents’ buying decisions, and also as future adult consumers. Their
advertising literacy, knowledge and skills related to advertising, are not yet fully developed.

While animated, ‘edutaining’ video channels such as Cocomelon and ChuChu TV attempt to
teach basic manners and inculcate a civic sense among kids, the stars of social media, also
known as vloggers or real-life ‘kidfluencers’ on YouTube, especially Dubai-based ones having
views in billions, have become important influences for consumer decisions of young audiences.
 Since these kid-influencer videos are sponsored by different kid-focused businesses, such as
toy stores or amusement centres, the little vlogs are all about fancy stuff that is beyond an
average person’s reach, no matter where in the world they live. Ask a friend who took a kid to
Dubai and ended up overspending on toys.

Promotions aside, the huge birthday parties and other extravagant celebrations that these
young influencers hold, are no less than a royal affair. You may spend on kids as much as you
like if you can afford to, but flaunting your purchasing power to those who cannot afford luxury
is problematic, as children cannot tell glitter from gold.

For the uninitiated, ‘Roma and Diana’ and ‘Vlad and Niki’ are two of the most-followed
YouTube kid channels and their videos are no different than billionaire-lifestyle vlogs.

Expensive toys, a super-luxurious Dubai lifestyle, first and business-class travel and fancy
cars — these shows have everything that a kid from an average-income household cannot access.
Imagine what happens when these kids begin to aspire to all of that.

Though this doesn’t violate any of the standards set by YouTube, it is still very likely to affect
children psychologically. In this digital age, coupled with the pandemic and lockdowns, kids
have gotten more into gadgets than ever. Since the screen is one of the main sources of learning
for the little ones, they instantly pick up what they see their favourite kid celebs doing.

“A child clearly understands the difference between cartoon and real-life characters,” says
Ozaira Zia, a grandparent and former associate professor of psychology at a university in
Lahore. “When the latter are seen waving a magic wand, however, it becomes a problem. These
videos expose children to some big names in toy manufacturing and retailing. First comes
affordability, followed by availability.

“Even if you can afford the gorgeously gift-wrapped toy your kid has just watched being
unpacked by the influencer, it could take a lot of time to reach the stores near you or get shipped
to your place. Your little ones will soon get frustrated and move on to another toy that they see
in the next video, while you have probably already spent money online. It’s a vicious cycle.”

The availability of fully participative parents, seen 24/7 with ‘kidfluencers’, and involved in
everything they do, is another unrealistic expectation this content creates in young minds who
are oblivious to the fact that they are paid to do this. “In reality, even a stay-at-home parent
cannot spare this much time for kids’ activities,” Zia points out.

“Some content doesn’t make any sense,” adds Sohail. “For instance, a girl making chocolate
handprints on the wall or putting insects in her parents’ food.”

The idea of right and wrong is best taught at this stage, but ‘kidfluencer’ content takes no
responsibility in this regard. “From wasting food to spoiling their siblings’ school books,
everything is casually considered as forgivable acts of annoyance to be laughed off,” says
Tabinda Zia, 33, an executive accountant and mother of a toddler.

“There is no concept of ‘sorry’ or ‘thank you’, and hardly any educational content other than
sponsored visits to expensive aquariums or museums,” she says. “Even if the videos are
commercial, advertising should not compromise the basic set of values a kid must learn.”

Zia is concerned that, with these influences on children, disciplining kids has become
difficult. “I am not against parents becoming friends with children, and playing games together,
but the child stars in these videos often disrespect elders,” she says.

A toy manufactured anywhere in the world and advertised through YouTube channels is
likely to reach a cross-section of homes with different incomes and budgets. For instance, the
push-pop rubber bubbles toy recently became a crazy and costly fad around the world, thanks to
the internet.
 Do toddlers get stressed to a point where they need tangible stress relievers? As opposed to
what these toy manufacturers claim, no parent would agree that pop-its and slime can actually
calm their little ones down.

Taking into account children’s underdeveloped marketing literacy and vulnerability to

embedded advertising practices, these channels must be pushed into assuming some
responsibility and to combine education with entertainment.

With stricter controls in place, YouTube Kids could yet become a safe place for the young
subscribers, even when parents igkfb hyjsyf yrub 7yfjeku7auysq
