Happily enough kids have been removed from what I strongly believe to be an abusive situation. Youtuber "Daddyofive" and his wife have had 2 children removed from their home. The video I linked to explains it fairly well. In search of internet fame and fortune , Youtuber "daddyofive" uploaded "prank" videos where, for example, the couple would pretend to get angry at their kids for something that the kids didn't do, explaining to them later - that it was a prank. That may sound innocent, but in the case of the infamous video where the adults had spilled some disappearing ink in the kid's bedroom and then proceeded to punish him for the "crime" - cornering a little kid and screaming obscenities in his face , calling him a liar when he says he didn't do it (which is the truth because the adults did it as a prank. ) and then laughing after minutes of the abuse as the terrified kid cowers.... that is abusive. Imagine what they did when the kids really did do something wrong? Anyway, it's sick these people posted such things, and it's sick anyone who enjoyed watching it.... but it's a blessing too because that way someone could come in and take the kids out of the abuse.
The biological mother of the two children featured in a Youtube ‘prank’ video which is at the center of a child abuse scandal, has spoken out about how she h...

So true, a special kind of sick. And both of them were in on it. What's wrong with some people?

I think that is a channel my son used to watch sometimes. He awful they did this to their kids and thought it was funny. I hope they have to go through parenting classes and things before they get those children back.

@FayeHazel I asked my son about this since I thought it had just happened but he said it was like 2 years ago the kids were taken away.

I think the channel was quite popular before it was taken down , now all that remains is an apology/explanation video. I agree. I think classes and moderation before they get to visit the kids again

Pranks are never very funny, but these parents are pure evil and sick! Who would ever do that to their own innocent children???? Just awful and appalling.

True, one would have to be very careful in having a good prank... would have to be fairly innocent... but this, more akin to tourture. Poor kids.

I've often noticed that 'pranks' have some basis in reality. I'm glad the kids were taken from him and given to their biological mother. At least that's my understanding having seen the video.

That is a wise insight - they were just adding a joke 'edge ' to what really goes on. Yeah, that's what I think too

It amazes me sometimes what people think is funny. We all prank from time to time. But there comes a time when even then, once is enough, and after that it's just not funny anymore. Glad the authorities were able to step in and hopefully restore some sensibility into the home.

So true. If it had been something a lot more innocent I wouldn't have minded, but this was more like abuse, which had me wondering, if they were willing to get so violently angry for sake of a prank... what happened when they really were disciplining the kids? Ehhh,
