If you were the parent of a child actor

Yes, Im guessing you would want to run their social media papers and not
have some studio/pr company do it.

But would you create a youtube/facebook/Instagram/Twitter accounts and then get
your SIX year old kid to create a lot of funny home video moments to share with the
world?

Im talking about Jeremy Maguire parent's the kid actor from Modern Family.

But then I don't have a high opinion of any parents who expose their children on social media at all! Parents should be protecting - not exploiting in order to get attention for themselves - their children!

to perform safely. We need to support community theater and give these kids a chance to do what they love to do.

I follow modern family on twitter and they sometimes retweet this kid's twitter account
and it's real private family stuff they tweet out, etc: Him doing videos on their trips here
and there.

ya would think they want to keep stuff private.
