Imagine a child being screamed at,sworn at,being shoved,pushed,punched, etc..imagine making the kid break down in tears,and making the kid scream at everyone,and even making the kid get frustrated to the point of smearing feces on the wall,and imagine all that being considered a prank. That's the video.
Jesus fuck..I turned it off the minute he got to the room. I can't watch that...that was seriously how my mom was growing up. Not the pranking but the screaming at the top of her lungs over small stuff. Damn. I hope those parents get what they deserve
Ok I watched some more and I seriously feel like one of those kids is going to stab those parents in their sleep then say "it's just a joke!"

I like how Daz (the youtuber) is purely doing it for the sake of goodness, cause he is a father himself and he hates that. He is getting no money off that video and he doesn't care

Wow.
Are we allowed to take citizenship away?
Just deport these guys to Madagascar?
I cannot believe these parents. This is child abuse, I don't know how anyone can stand up for the family. The X-box smashing clip reminded me of when I was a kid and my dad smashed my vcr. If he had told me it was all for a YouTube prank, I personally think it would have been worse. That's not even to mention their changing stories and having private conversations about their children and posting them publicly.

UPDATE: watch Phillip defranco's most recent video. The parents are trying to blame him for the negative attention they're getting.
I think this channel is a meme or something. I saw this on FB once upon a time under a funny meme name.
I mean it's disgusting and all and I have no idea how it got to this state but I think that's what it is now and it shouldn't be.
Ooh right, sorry I thought you were talking about the reaction video. Yeah, I heard that the dad said it was all a prank, but I still think that those kids' reactions were genuine, because their crying seemed pretty legit.
I used to frequent reddit's watchpeopledie and other such morbid subs and I didn't think I had the capacity to feel disgusted or sickened. I just found out I can and am feeling.
I'm am literally crying for these kids! Those parents need jailed permanently! Plus they need sterilized! Wtf kind of wastes of oxygen treat their kids like this!? This is actually worse than my son's mother and she let him soak in dirty diapers for 8 hours a night while I worked myself to total exhaustion, I really want to beat these moronic 'adults' to a pulp!

Yeah, I feel like you shouldn't be allowed to breed like rabbits and have five kids if you're gonna treat them like this
and on top of treating them like this, they are posting video proof of this and making money off of it. i honestly just think they are so crazy.

I don't think the videos should be taken down, if they are they can't be used as evidence anymore. Or someone should download it, but I'm pretty sure nobody wants that shit on their computer
I can't imagine what its doing to those kids to live in a house of constant stress. They are probably constantly worried, scared, or anxious at being yelled at, accused, hit, or mistreated at any given time. The mom yelling at her kids is so hard to listen to. This kind of treatment does horrible things to kids. I don't even want to know long term how it will be for them. Homes are supposed to be safe spaces. Kids should assume always that their home is for them to be cared for and to feel loved and secure. This home does not give the impression that the kids are having a stress-free life.

This made me soooo angry. I honestly don't even know what to say, it's so horrible. Thanks for posting this though, to spread the message. People need to know that this kind of stuff is not okay.
I couldn't watch more than a minute past the invisible ink "prank." Absolutely horrifying. How can people like that have children while decent adults struggle with infertility? Nasty, nasty, nasty. Their poor children...
Guys, I know this is a week old and stuff, but I thought you should know, they deleted all their videos and made an apology video
https://m.youtube.com/channel/UC8lV8KIVWvfsaqOi_d3Wu3w
I haven't watched it yet, but there's their channel, free to watch it
It also turns out that a PR group (the Fallston Group I think) made that video
This group has some ties to the DoJ,so I'm genuinely scared that these kids won't get help bc of that
I looked around and everyone should follow the links in the video and go to the father's channel. He explains everything and makes it clear that this is all fake and the kids ideas.
Honestly, I don't know. This looks like abuse, but there are so many contrasting sources. The dad does this stuff as a family with his kids ideas and everyone involved, but all of the shit on the mom's channel is her idea and has nothing from her family. I'm pretty sure she makes the videos that get all of the hate, as the robbery, XBox and ink are all from her. Keep in mind this all I could pick up from only an hour of research, so don't take it all as fact. Seriously though, watch the video and snoop around a bit and you can figure out what you believe.
I have watched quite a few of their videos so far. Having your kids fight each other, throwing them against bookcases, punching them, pinning them down so a sibling can REPEATEDLY smash their balls is NOT a "family prank." These kids were most likely threatened to agree to calling it a prank on camera so their lawyers have something to work with. They mentally attack their kids and put them in severe emotional states. Their "apology" video is them backtracking to try and save face. They're going to be arrested or at least put on trial eventually because there's too much evidence against them to claim it as "just a prank channel".

I think, as Daz mentioned, the kids are just saying what the parents want them to say. That kind of torment is not cool, and children can't usually fake that kind of stuff
You can see it in their movements. They hold themselves in a sort of defensive panic as opposed to indignantly which is indicative that they've been through this multiple times and they're sick of it. I also have no idea what I'm talking about.
Then laugh and say "It's just a prank bro!"
