Laura Fritz's TikTok page, Laura & Lena, has over 2.7 million followers, and all of her videos have been viewed more than 190 million times.

Laura is among the many momfluencers who left social media for a better future of their little ones

There is no denying that social media can be a comfortable space for influencers, and has been a lucrative platform for several influencers. Momfluencers have seen a lot of benefits from sharing their content on social media. They receive a lot of love and support from the masses as they share content about parenting, mom hacks, and even videos with their children.

However, as their popularity grows, the personal lives of several momfluencers don't remain as personal anymore. This has the potential to have an adverse effect on their children's lives as they grow up and start venturing out on their own.

Therefore, just like Laura Fritz, several other momfluencers have decided to move away from social media or conceal their kids' identities so they can have a "normal childhood."

One such social media personality is Maia Knight, who began blurring her kids' faces so people wouldn't recognize them. While Knight's decision was applauded by netizens, there were some who claimed that she was still exploiting them for monetary gains on her content.

It is worth noting that several momfluencers have been accused of using their kids' content to monetize their channels.
