Gen Z is using their parents for social media content. The tables on home videos are turned: kids are the ones explaining what to do for their parents, and it’s got viral quality. Take Martin Scorsese’s daughter Francesca, for example, who frequently uses TikTok to boss her dad around asking him to decipher Gen Z slang. This role reversal gives kids the chance to appear more mature, while also making their parents seem younger. But across this “reverse sharenting,” from TikTok teens flaunting their wealth on their immigrant parents to Oscar-winning directors like Scorsese, a new generational dynamic is building. The redistribution of power gets complicated when young adults achieve unusual success, fame, or wealth from the content, forcing a reevaluation of traditional parent-child relationships.
