Why did YouTube have a change of heart?
YouTube listened to input from users who have expressed that breastfeeding videos are useful for parents seeking guidance on how to navigate the early days of childrearing.
“We heard feedback that for many parents, videos about breastfeeding are a helpful resource as they navigate this stage of parenthood," a YouTube spokesperson told TechCrunch. "We hope these changes can give all creators more space to share this type of content with eligibility for ad revenue."
With YouTube loosening its reigns on breastfeeding content, we should see more creators rolling out educational content to give new parents the tools they need to tackle parenthood.
