Why the Babic Family Are My Favourite Content Creators — and Why the Under-16 Social Media Ban Misses the Mark
For me, that’s Courtney, John, Kyan, Landon, Kingsley and Ivy Babic — a family whose videos have become a bright, positive part of my everyday routine. They’re more than just creators; they’re storytellers, entertainers, and a reminder that good, wholesome family fun still exists on the internet.
Today, I want to dive deep into why they’re my favourite content creators, what they mean to so many people, and also share my personal thoughts about the new social media ban for under-16-year-olds — a decision I strongly believe was handled poorly, especially for families like the Babics who do things safely and responsibly.
⭐ The Babic Family: Genuine, Funny, Real
1. They Show Real Family Life — Not the Fake, Over-Edited Kind
One of the biggest reasons I love watching Courtney and John with their kids is how real they are. Life with young kids is chaotic, unpredictable, and full of surprises — and they don’t hide that.
They show the funny moments, the messy ones, the emotional ones, and the everyday moments that remind you what family is all about.
It never feels scripted. It never feels forced.
It feels authentic — and that’s rare in a world of filters and fake perfection.
2. Courtney and John Are Amazing Parents
You can tell straight away that these two work as a team. Courtney brings warmth, humour, honesty, and a huge heart. John brings steadiness, fun energy, and a sense of calm. Together, they create content that feels safe, wholesome, and uplifting.
They guide their kids, protect them, and make sure every video is age-appropriate. That’s a big part of why I trust their content so much.
3. The Kids Each Bring Their Own Personality
Every child in the Babic family shines in their own way:
Kyan – Adventurous, confident, funny, and clever beyond his years.
Landon – Curious, sweet-natured, and full of imagination.
Kingsley – A little character with a big personality.
Ivy – The adorable one who brings joy into every scene she’s in.
They aren’t trying too hard or pretending to be something they’re not — they’re just being kids. Natural, playful, and full of life.
4. Their Content Is Safe, Wholesome and Moderated
One thing that really stands out is how responsibly the parents manage everything. The kids don’t run their own accounts.
Every single profile is controlled, posted, and monitored by Courtney and John.
This means:
No unsafe interaction with strangers
No inappropriate comments
No risky content
No private information exposed
In a world where some families chase views over safety, the Babics do it right.
❤️ Why They’re My Personal Favourite Creators
I think what really makes this family special is the feeling you get when you watch them. You don’t feel stressed or overwhelmed. You don’t feel judged. You don’t feel like you’re watching something fake.
You feel:
Comfort
Positivity
Laughter
Good energy
Family love
There are thousands of creators online — but not many leave you feeling better after watching them. The Babics do. Every time.
Their videos remind me of the simple joy of being human, of spending time with loved ones, and of appreciating the small moments in life. In a world that can be heavy and serious, their content is pure light.
🚫 My Opinion on the Under-16 Social Media Ban
Recently, the government introduced a ban that stops anyone under 16 from having social media.
I want to be very clear about my opinion:
I strongly believe this was the wrong decision.
Not because I don’t care about safety — I do.
Not because I think kids should be unsupervised online — they shouldn’t.
But because the government jumped straight to a ban instead of thinking about smarter, more flexible solutions.
Here’s why I disagree:
⚖️ 1. A One-Size-Fits-All Rule Doesn’t Work
There are young people who use social media safely, responsibly, and creatively.
There are parents who monitor their children’s accounts.
There are families — like the Babics — who create positive, uplifting content without exploiting their kids.
Why punish the families doing it right?
A blanket ban doesn’t take into account:
parental supervision
content style
maturity level
safety guidelines
individual circumstances
It treats everyone the same, even though not everyone behaves the same.
⭐ 2. This Family Is Proof That Kids Can Be Online Safely
The Babic children aren’t online alone.
They aren’t messaging strangers.
They aren’t exposed to danger.
Their accounts are carefully managed by adults who understand the risks and take responsibility.
If anything, their family is an example of how to do things properly.
Removing opportunities for kids who are supervised and safe just doesn’t make sense.
🎨 3. Young People Deserve Creative Outlets
Social media isn’t just scrolling — for many kids, it’s:
creativity
expression
confidence
community
fun
Some kids dance, some cook, some act, some tell stories.
And families like the Babics make content together, turning it into a shared hobby and bonding experience.
Why shut down something that brings joy and builds skills?
🛠️ 4. There Were Better Ways to Handle It
A ban should’ve been the last resort, not the first.
Here are safer alternatives the government could’ve used:
Verified parent-managed accounts
Mandatory safety training for parents
Stronger reporting systems
Time limits
Restricted interactions
Age-appropriate content rules
These would’ve protected kids without taking away their freedom, creativity, and fun.
🌈 The Bigger Picture
At the end of the day, the Babic family shows what social media can be:
uplifting
family-friendly
safe
creative
joyful
They bring happiness to people — including me — and they prove that kids don’t have to be banned from social media to stay safe.
They just need the right guidance and boundaries.
The government should be working with families like this, not shutting them down.
💬 Final Thoughts
Courtney, John, Kyan, Landon, Kingsley and Ivy are more than content creators.
They’re a family who spreads positivity, laughter, and love to millions.
They’ve shown the world that social media can be a safe, beautiful place for kids when parents are responsible and involved.
That’s why I support them.
That’s why they’re my favourite creators.
And that’s why I believe the under-16 ban was the wrong approach.
Young people deserve fun.
Families deserve choice.
And safe, supervised content deserves to continue.
