Craigslist and early days twitch taught me things. Scary things.
Yea just watched the Defranco videos, what the fuck was my reaction.
These poor kids man, the little girl got slapped by her step brother and the asshole sat there and laughed at her.

This is actually shocking that they managed to make so many videos while continuing to attract an audience and it didn't blow up before now.
Cody is abused, plain and simple.
The worst part was when he said to his son that he should never hit girls but his sister doesn't count, so she gets hit the face and starts crying.
Also those bruises on Cody's arm and hearing the thick as shit mother mock his mental illness on video because she doesn't understand it.

I whinny my fervor lowly, for his length is not as great as those of the Hylian war stallions
It is, and it isn't.
I think it may also be a side effect of algorithms and suggested content creating isolated bubbles.
on the other hand
It's horrifying that many people watched this and apparently either kept it to themselves or shared it with other people who found nothing wrong with it.
The "wife" claims they were investigated already. I seriously doubt that.

Half of this shit I can't even understand why you'd think it's a good idea to put on youtube. Chastising your child while they cry, commenting about how they're 'not normal' and 'crazy'. I can only think how Cody would feel if he saw this years later, or even now. Fuck it though, it's all for the views.

A pair of fucking Psychos.
What the fuck am I watching?
And they put this up on YouTube voluntarily? How are the kids still with them? How are they not in jail? How did no one report this? What?!

Watch this manipulative crap. These parents are vermin and I pity all their kids. CPS cannot deal with this swiftly and harshly enough.

They didn't invite him because they blamed him for putting shit on the walls (on video) because the "real reason" he wasn't invited was embarrassing for Cody.
Yes, their toilet over flowed (or maybe they just did it themselves) and they blamed the mess on Cody rubbing his own shit all over the walls and used that as a reason to not let him go because that was somehow seen as NOT EMBARRASSING.
The fucking scum bags...
And some of those fucking replies being all "it's just pranks" "they said they were ok with it" "everyone's family is like this"... Fucking internet letting idiots meet up and try and normalise this shit.
Better late than never, etc.

Quick kids! Go hug mom to gain internet sympathy!
*SOBBING* GET THE GOOD CAMERA, I DON'T CARE
The girl's face 10 seconds in too. xD
Yeah, fuck these parents. They're awful people. If the kids are acting, give them a goddamn award because they're Meryl Streeping the fuck out of their performances.

I hope she gives a more convincing performance when they are sentenced to what I can only hope is a lengthy term in jail. Fucking scum that they are. Deserve absolutely nothing but the very worst societal retribution can do to them. The kids need to be taken away, and I would love for these two to be ruined financially and emotionally. What I wouldn't give to see old daddy-o get "pranked" by a man his size.
That compilation video has got me fucked up. Those kids have no one to turn to. Each "parent" is as bad as the other and even their own siblings treat them like shit.
How the hell are these "pranks" and "jokes"??

You don't get it? It's funny because they humiliate the child to tears.
Pff and there are actually people defending them. Luckily this story is getting picked up by more and more places, hopefully something will be done about this.

Urgh, I really hate DeFranco's style of quick-cuts when he's speaking, but I suppose I'd give these three a look.
The treatment of the youngest is really heartbreaking.
So much wrong with this situation, so unfair to that poor kid
The kid is CLEARLY miserable and CLEARLY not ok with it. Doesn't matter if later the kid says "actually ok". I don't think kids are equipped to consent to treatment like this.
So shameful what people will do for a buck.

There's no defense for this type of shit and it's disgusting how screaming at your children and traumatizing them can be monetized on YouTube. I've already seen multiple videos where he asks the father to stop recording but he never does.
Turns out the mom has a channel as well, with some quality pranks like dad pulling a gun on his son the criminal: https://youtu.be/9IM1N1jT8Vo
And this is a second compilation video with some other footage than the one already posted in this thread: https://youtu.be/jpiMRcTJRgo

This guy analyzes it pretty well, the dad sets up this "joke" that cody doesnt fall for a second time and he then gets punished for calling the prick out on it. Watch from 6:30~ to 11:00~

These parents should be punished. There should be some kind of boot camp or military school for bad parents to get their asses kicked for two weeks.
It's not a situation where you would want the parents removed because that would do more harm to the kids, the parents just need to get their shit together.

Reports of child abuse can be made anonymously in Maryland: http://dhr.maryland.gov/child-protective-services/reporting-suspected-child-abuse-or-neglect/
The Maryland county where these parents lives in needs to be known as there is not a centralized number that can be called to report child abuse: http://dhr.maryland.gov/child-prote...spected-child-abuse-or-neglect/local-offices/

When i saw Phill's video I was repulsed. This is clearly child abuse and I am so glad that Phill brought it up.

When the creativity of a situation doesn't matter so much as getting someone's emotional reaction filmed on camera.
But how will they get youtube hits?
Unless they start making tasteful videos of annoying their children.

I found the whole video for the "epic xbox prank part 1"
This video PERFECTLY shows how this guy is mentally destroying and abusing this poor kid.
