So the first part of this Philip DeFranco video is about this family "video blog" on Youtube. Seems like all sorts of child abuse (physical, psychological). Would love to see Stef break these behaviors down and explain why this is abusive. Link to "DADDYOFIVE" channel videos, for all content: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8lV8KIVWvfsaqOi_d3Wu3w/videos     Haven't checked out these yet, but from what Phil showed it seems quite abusive, imo. Not only do the parents directly torment the kids, but there's physical abuse by older children to the younger kids, with the parents clearly allowing it. Thoughts?

Wow, hadn't seen that thanks.

 

It would be great if Stefan could do a video about this--it's blowing up bigtime, and it would be huge to be able to share a succinct breakdown about HOW this is harmful to kids. If you look at the upvote/downvote ratio, sadly there ia a massive amount of people that like these videos and don't think (majorily) psychological abuse is harmful. Going through some of the vids, there's violence EVERYWHERE. The youngest kid, who seems to get it the worst appears to be self-harming, even (cutting). They constantly tell him there's something wrong with him, he has problems, something wrong with his brain... he's stupid. In one video, they did this "Mannequin challenge", in which everyone is "frozen", and in EVERY SINGLE "act" there is simulated violence or destruction of property (mom dropping a game console from 2nd story, sibling choking sibling, one boy holding a smaller boy against a wall about to punch him in the face).

 

The positive is, there's a good amount of condemnation about this stuff on channels that criticize the behavior (and some subreddits), but no one has really gotten into HOW it's harmful. Common arguments for the behavior are: They're not beating the kids so it's fine... Siblings fight and that's normal, so that's fine.

WE know that's wrong--and it is harmful--but many don't see/know that it's going to really fuck these kids up (and then photocopy, photocopy, photocopy)...

Agreed I tweeted stefan but no replay I should have mailed too. what you are saying in pretty much in this stream, Skip to Keemstar making excuses for the parents, "This was my childhood it is normal.", "It is fake." Even though stefan didn't talked about it i am glad there were a lot of people involved in this. Who could imagine monetizing child abuse. I am glad they are getting theirs right now all the videos now are private.
