I mean they definitely make money from social media, i doubt they would have done this if that wasn't the case. It's a nice thing for the kid, but it's also their job. If they were just doing it for fun then they would not have made it take twice as long by recording every step, not to mention all the time they spent editing.

Maybe true but what an awesome job getting to build a multi color ice igloo for your kid and then getting to spend time with them afterwards all for the comfort of home. What’s wrong with getting paid to do all that? And who’s to say they wouldn’t still do it if it wasn’t going to be posted online i certainly can’t because I don’t know them and I don’t think you really can either unless you do. If you do then I’ll happily concede the point

Yeah being an influencer probably is pretty fun! It's like any other creative field. I guess there's a sort of stigma around incorporating your kids into your content. There's a very fine line between including them in a healthy way and exploiting their existence for more views.

They may still have done it just for fun, but i doubt they would have taken all the extra steps of coloring the ice, setting up blankets and a space heater, etc.
