Are Family Vloggers Fleeing California to Avoid Child Labor Laws?

Family vloggers are facing fresh backlash—not just for oversharing, but for allegedly dodging accountability.

Social media creator Bunny Hedaya, known for her lifestyle content with her son Aden, has gone viral after accusing influencers of fleeing California to avoid paying their kids under new child labor laws.

These laws, SB 764 and AB 1880, require families to set aside earnings when children appear in monetized content and allow for legal consequences if they don’t.

The LaBrant family, long accused of exploiting their children for clicks, is among those highlighted in a recent UserMag.co report.

Cole LaBrant’s mother says their move to Tennessee was about family and taxes—but critics see it differently.

While the laws aim to protect young creators, UserMag notes they’re full of loopholes and don’t cover most brand deals.

Still, with documentaries like Bad Influence and Born to Be Viral spotlighting exploitation, Bunny’s “Quit Clicking Kids” campaign is gaining steam—and asking a tough question: if your kids are part of the business, shouldn’t they share in the profit?
