no

No, people need to raise their own damn kids themselves.

Nope.

Nope!

No. I understand how some of them have influence(I use that word loosely) on some teens or whatever but that's those kids/teens parents job to tell them right from wrong and guide them so they can have common sense and know they can't do everything they see these celebrities or their favorite performers doing.

I'm the only one who voted yes 'Yes' isn't completely accurate, though. I just think it's something they should be mindful of. Like, make sure pictures of you doing hard drugs aren't published if your demographic is predominantly children or tweens. Otherwise, they should be free to live whatever life they want in private.

Agreed

This.

Yes, it's their responsibility and what they have to pay for being famous. Like if you're studient, your responsibility is study.
They can do whatever they want in their private life. But their publicity action can affect young people who look up to them. If you don't want to be role model, so don't be famous.

Nah.

This post sums it up well.

No. Unless your a Nick/Disney star who is on a childrens/teen's show every week. If you're Rihanna you don't have to be cause none of her music is really for kids and she isn't marketing it to them. Katy Perry has to because 90% of her music is aimed to 15 year old girls. Beyonce doesn't have to be either, she just chooses too.

No. Celebrites aren't parents.

Exactly. I think its unfair to say "look after your own kids". Whilst I understand this statement, celebs have to be mindful that whether they like it or not they are role models for a lot of kids. They are in the spotlight so its only natural for a lot of people to look up to them.

Of course though, parents should be a child's 'ultimate' role model.
