legislation to protect kid influencers from their parents

 Illinois Governor signed SB 1782 (2023 | IL) that requires parents of kid social media influencers to set aside their kids’ gross earnings in a trust that the child can access when they turn 18. It’s kinda like Coogan’s law in California that sought to prevent parents from profiting from their kids’ work in Hollywood. Washington State is considering giving kids the option to permanently delete their kid influencer content when they turn 18. A legislative hot topic.
