In February 2023, Pew Research Center conducted 18 focus groups with adult participants from 11 Asian origin groups in different regions across the United States. These are among the most likely Asian origin groups to experience economic hardship in the United States. Focus groups reveal that Asian Americans’ experiences with economic hardship differ by whether they were born in the U.S. or outside the country. Some immigrants both experience adversity making ends meet and face challenges that come with living in a new, unfamiliar country. These include learning English, navigating daily life in a new place and securing a permanent job. Even though U.S.-born Asians grew up in this country and speak English, they talk about the challenges of understanding what it takes to succeed in America. This includes getting the “right” education, getting access to the “right” knowledge and knowing the “right” people to succeed.

Everybody has heard that eating carrots can help improve eyesight, or that calcium-rich milk is good for your teeth and bones. But what about the brain? From a neuroscientist’s perspective, food is really fundamentally important for brain health, because our brains literally run on nutrients,” says Lisa Mosconi, director of the Weill Cornell Women’s Brain Initiative and author of Brain Food: The Surprising Science of Eating for Cognitive Power. Brains need different nutrients as they age, and early childhood is a particularly __(a)__ time for brain growth, development, and health. “Even just in the first few years of life, the brain is really sprouting neurons at light speed,” says Mosconi, who’s also a neuroscientist. Overall, scientists __(b)__ around 45 nutrients that are key to brain health, including things like protein, zinc, iron, choline, folate, iodine, vitamin A, vitamin D, vitamin B6, vitamin B12, and omega-3 fatty acids. Of course, the words “folate” and “choline” are not likely to make anyone’s mouth water—children or otherwise—so the trick is to target the foods that are naturally rich in the good stuff. Berries, plums, sweet potatoes, and fish are some of the good choices. In addition, consider adding oats, nuts, citrus fruits, beans, and __(c)__ to the menu.

Paragraph 1: Parents share content of their children for myriad reasons, including to connect with friends and family, and to seek validation or support. However, some parents also do this for commercial gain. They manage their children as social media “kidfluencers” – allowing them to work with brands to market products to other children and adults.

Paragraph 2: Product lines for kids are big business. In 2021, the global toys market was projected to grow from about US$141 billion to $230.6 billion by 2028. It is now common to see YouTube kidfluencers marketing toys to other kids through toy “reviews”. However, these videos are not the same as traditional product reviews. They blur the lines between three major genres: reviews, branded content and entertainment.

Paragraph 3: The most popular toy review channels have millions of subscribers, and their hosts are some of YouTube’s top earners. Ryan’s World is probably the most well-known channel in this genre. Conservative estimates suggest 10-year-old Ryan Kanji’s family earns about US$25 million each year.

Paragraph 4: The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission’s latest interim report for the Digital Platforms Services Inquiry has acknowledged key issues relevant to kidfluencers. Some of them are privacy concerns and possible labor exploitation issues. There is a clear need for regulation in this space.

Paragraph 5: So far, the French government appears to be the only one that has taken tangible action to regulate the labor of child social media influencers. Under French law, children below age 16 can only work limited hours, and their earnings must be safeguarded in an account made accessible when they turn 16. France is also considering legislation to regulate “sharenting” – a portmanteau of sharing and parenting that describes the practice of consistently posting content about one’s children on social media.
