So I was watching a show in my room when my 10 year old brother (let’s call him David) walks into my room and asks for help I ask “what are you trying to do” he says “a YouTuber I like is asking for editors and I want to try to be one” (not his words) now I said no to that and told him to get out my room. He left and I went back to watching my show. He came back not even 10 minutes later right after the main characters in my show just defeated the main villain so anyway he came back with his IPad with my mom on FaceTime with him my mom asked about school stuff but after she asked about MY COMPUTER PASSWORD so I told her and my brother went over to MY COMPUTER and I asked what he was trying to do I said “you know what” so I took my keyboard out the computer and into my room wall I was out he took my keyboard and started trying to find out what to do for the editing job I tried to tell him he shouldn’t take a job from the internet at his age he didn’t listen and continued he got frustrated and just now as I’m writing this he started crying because he doesn’t understand how to use a computer.
I just released that I forgot to mention that my mom and sister didn’t want David to get this job anyway
NTA- A ten year old with no experience is highly unlikely to become a decent editor for a monetised channel, and it’d likely cause issues of child labour for the youtuber in question
INFO: did you explain to him what and why your concerns are about him doing that? I can think of many reasons, but they might not be so obvious to a 10yo.
Change your password. No 10 year old should be editing anything for someone, this sounds like it could end up being predatory. Have a serious talk with your mom and she needs to limit access to what he’s doing in YouTube before he becomes a statistic. I’d even consider reporting that individual to YouTube. If they can’t edit their own content, then they have no business being on YouTube. NTA
