Well-known YouTube creator, Ms. Rachel, with a following of 10 million subscribers, has recently stirred up quite a storm. Known for her educational content for babies and toddlers, she’s taken a massive U-turn by choosing to introduce Pride Month themes, sparking outrage among her target audience’s parents.

Ms. Rachel’s usual fare includes videos aimed at aiding learning and increasing cognitive abilities in children, with subjects like phonetics, nursery rhymes, and basic number recognition. Her videos are specifically crafted to aid the mental development of kids aged five or younger, some primarily for babies even.

However, her recent decision to included Pride-themed content has raised brows since the concept delves into advocacy for various sexual orientations and preferences, and gender identities, which many argue are not suitable subjects for young children.

Along these lines, she recently uploaded a video applauding Pride Month on her TikTok profile, MsRachelForLittles. The video, attracting over 3 million views, had Ms. Rachel joyfully expressing, “Happy pride to all of our wonderful families and friends. This month and every month I celebrate you.”

This sudden shift in content naturally garnered a divided reaction from her followers. In anticipation of this backlash, Ms. Rachel conveyed her resolve towards her stance, regardless of losing viewership.

Her actions didn’t go unaddressed by the conservative community. Matt Walsh of the Daily Wire pointed out her apparent disinterest in keeping conservative parents among her audience and advised them to react appropriately.

Similarly, May Mailman, outspoken director of the Independent Women’s Law Center, warned parents against letting Ms. Rachel introduce sexuality to their young ones. An infuriated viewer insightfully noted the liberal thought bubble where disagreement is conveniently misinterpreted as hate.

Unfortunately for parents, this is not Ms. Rachel’s first overtly liberal stunt. Previously featuring non-binary personalities and expressing interest in a transgender influencer appearing on her program, she has effectively broadened her agenda far from simple educational content.

“Sometime when you’re in NYC you should be on our show, Songs for Littles! We love you & your singing,” she once proposed online to transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney, raising further questions about the unsuitable content she wishes to introduce to her young audience.

This recent controversy serves as an alarming wake-up call to parents motivating them to supervise their kids’ consumption of entertainment and educational content actively. As for well-intentioned platforms like Ms. Rachel’s, the risk of a buried bias with the potential to spread an unexpected agenda has never been more blatant.

Parents must practice mindfulness when it comes to their children’s access to such content, else risk exposure to inappropriate adult themes before they’re of an age to understand them. Healthy growth should never be compromised.
