Abstract
Los youtubers aglutinan a miles de seguidores en YouTube, su cercanía y la interactividad con sus seguidores son clave para
mantener una comunidad que en muchas ocasiones se hacen dependientes de estos, ya que para muchos menores, se
convierten en el único medio audiovisual, y sus padres en la mayoría de los casos no conocen el comportamiento de estos
en línea. Tras la revisión teórica sobre redes sociales, las familias y los menores frente a Internet y YouTube y la competencia
mediática de estas, con el objetivo de analizar la competencia mediática de los padres y la percepción que estos tienen sobre
el impacto que producen los youtubers en sus hijos, realizamos un trabajo de campo a través de un instrumento de entrevista
semiestructurada, utilizando un enfoque de estudio cualitativo, entrevistando a padres de la muestra seleccionada con
menores con edades comprendidas entre los 9 y 15 años. Los resultados obtenidos fueron analizados con una herramienta
de rejillas de creación propia y el sorfware de Atlas.Ti. Las principales conclusiones han permitido advertir que a pesar del
conocimiento que tienen las familias sobre el consumo mediático de sus hijos, no asumen un papel activo en la protección de
estos.
Youtubers bring together thousands of followers on YouTube, their proximity and interactivity with their followers are key to maintaining a community that often becomes dependent on them, since for many children, they become the only audiovisual medium, and their Parents in most cases do not know their behavior online. After the theoretical review on social networks, families and minors in front of the Internet and YouTube and their media competence, with the aim of analyzing the media competence of parents and their perception of the impact that youtubers have on their children, we carry out a field work through a semi-structured interview instrument, using a qualitative study approach, interviewing parents of the selected sample with minors between the ages of 9 and 15 years. The results obtained were analyzed with a grid tool of our own creation and the Atlas.Ti sorfware. The main conclusions have allowed us to warn that despite the knowledge that families have about the media consumption of their children, they do not assume an active role in their protection.
