Christmas present opening YouTube videos

What do you think of them?

My dd has stumbled across them and now is expecting a mound of presents like the other children. I have already explained to her not to expect this.

I think they are adding unnecessary pressure onto parents who are less fortunate than themselves.

Well done for being rich enough to buy all this stuff, but making a video about it for all to see is just making the rest of us feel crap.

Are these videos of parents filming their children opening presents, or is it staged?

I'd explain to your DC that it's like a film and it's not real- because that's the truth! It's simply not the case that the majority of children are opening an obscene amounts of presents on Christmas morning.

It's parents filming their children opening presents. It's not staged. There are so many of them on there and dd finds them fascinating.

Sounds awful to me. We live abroad and I would film DS opening presents from grandparents and sending it to them but why would anyone post it on YouTube?

I don't understand why anyone would want to watch a video of anyone unboxing anything. I really don't get why they are so popular on youtube. I don't know how old your DD is but I wouldn't be letting her watch anymore of that if it was my DD.
