KUWAIT CITY, May 27: In a landmark ruling, the Family Court stated that using children to promote social media influence to increase followers or achieve profits is against the law. It ruled to revoke a mother’s custody of her children because she took revenge on their father by promoting their children on social media platforms. According to the case file, Lawyer Mohammad Safar, the defense counsel representing the father, demanded to transfer the custody of his client’s children from his ex-wife to his client after the mother promoted their children on social media to increase the number of followers on her private accounts in order to achieve financial profits and take revenge on her ex-husband. By doing so, she violated one of the conditions of the custody, as it proves she is not keen about her children’s welfare.
