*Trigger Warning* AIBU to not understand how this YouTuber isn't being investigated for child abuse?

[milkmilklemonade12]

So I actually found out about this channel via another large forum I post on. Essentially, a YouTube channel which is called DaddyOFive (it's reasonably large, around three quarters of a million subscribers) centres around a blog made by the father, with 5 children. The upshot of it is, people were angry about how the family, lead by the father; bully one of their children Cody, and pass it off as just 'good old fashioned parenting!'

At first until I checked out the videos I honestly thought it couldn't be that bad. I was horribly wrong. Some of the videos are entitled:
Dad burns Cody's Pokemon cards
Dad destroys son's DS
Dad forces son to throw away his toys
I'm sending Cody to military school

In their most recent video, because Cody had been bad (smeared poop on the walls; a recognised sign of abuse and distress), they took all the other kids to DisneyLand.

These videos are horrific, and despite them being located in the US, I really feel like CPS should be investigating and YouTube should shut the channel down for child abuse.

If you can bear to watch the videos, the guy's name is DaddyOFive, and I'd urge you to take a few minutes and report their videos for child abuse. I really don't understand how in this day and age, this kind of thing isn't investigated more quickly. The child is sobbing, and regularly in horrendous distress at the bullying at the hands of his parents and siblings, so these videos could trigger people; that's why I haven't directly linked them and why I've placed a warning on the top of my post.

Shocked and feel sick just reading about this

So they've been investigated by ss because they put their baby to sleep on its front?

dont click this link unless you feel you are in a good place

Thank you for the link though gin

ilove that's the gist I got; but I can't say I know an awful low about it.

Everyone should share it if they can... these videos are so hard to watch.

That email again for Maryland CPS:

The child's name is Cody Martin, the father's name is Mike Martin. The YouTube channel is called DaddyOFive.

So what's with sacconejolys then?

Well, when they had their first, they allowed their dog to pee on her face when she was a newborn. They just stood back and laughed.

She had a seizure and they just carried on ignoring her; never took her to a doctor.

Used to ignore her to the point that she took to rocking herself back and forth constantly to settle.

Had her bath so hot that she was red from the neck down afterwards (and had the bath water up to her collarbones).

I could go on. I stopped watching them before their second child was born, and they now have a third child apparently, so I don't know what they've been like recently. They were certainly negligent with their first though.

So they've been investigated by ss because they put their baby to sleep on its front?

No idea about this. They were investigated years back with their first daughter.

Thank you for the information there super, I didn't know about any of that. Thank goodness they were investigated then! Do they still have a channel?

I haven't clicked, but does the channel carry advertising?

A few tweets to advertisers might lead to action.

A woman in Oklahoma has just been sent down for life after abusing her grandchildren like this.
She, and her boyfriend, dressed up as a witch and a demon to traumatise the children.
Perhaps if she said 'only pranking!' and posted a video on YouTube then it would've been alright

Seems just the same as this DaddyO5 cunt and the abuse he's filming. Hope he gets twatted.

Thank you for the information there super, I didn't know about any of that. Thank goodness they were investigated then! Do they still have a channel?

Yep, and they're more popular than ever by the looks of things.

Their kids are cash cows to them, nothing more. That's why I stopped watching them.

Children that smear feaces are deeply disturbed. Thank you for sharing this. I watched the DeFranco video and that was enough. The dad looks like a bully.

Wow that's bad!

I can't bring myself to watch any of it. What a cunt. If he does that on camera, what the hell is he like off camera. Hope something is done about this.

Yy - smearing faeces is such a red flag. He's not a toddler. It's just awful.

I do love Philip De Franco.

I'm going to watch the video now.

The child is sobbing like he is exhausted, which he is. He is absolutely, emotionally exhausted and his sobs are truly gut wrenching. I can't imagine treating anyone like this, least of all my own child.

super please remember you only see 10-15 mins a day of these people. The sacconejoly were not investigated. And how do you know they didn't take Emilia to the doctors for the seizure? They don't share every moment of their life. I'd say they generally have their head screwed on.

Op this YouTube channel is awful. I'm going to report. This man is vile.

I don't know how old Cody is though. I guessed at an old 6 - a young 8, if that makes sense!

Thank you yukbuck

these are the times of day they broadcast Yuk!!!

there are 1440 minutes in a day, so I mean 10 minutes of abuse is negligible obviously I mean, hes still got those 1430 minutes to himself eh!!
