Daddy O Five child abuse?!

A father and stepmother in the US have lost custody of two of their five children after playing pranks on them in a series of YouTube videos.

Daddy O Five is a youtube channel which shared content of 'pranks' the parents pulled on their children. However, recently this year they were exposed by Phillip Defranco on his weekly youtube show due to the alleged abusive action the parents displayed.


In one video the parents poured ink onto their youngest son Cody's bedroom floor before swearing at him and blaming him for the mess. Cody was then shown crying hysterically.

Public outrage ensued with many Youtube users reacting to Daddy o Five's channel with comments and dislikes. The parents then went into damage control, first saying everything was scripted and the kids were in on the jokes... Then they finally apologised... which definitely was scripted... With the amount of attention drawn to this situation, relevant authorities in the US had to step in and investigate. That's a win for youtube and more importantly a win for the children's safety!

He was close to 1.3 million subs at the time of the Content Cop. iDubbbz exposed Jinx for his lackluster and uncreative content. Following this Content Cop Jinx slowly released videos less frequently and lost more and more subs and views. It's hard to say whether Content Cop is the main reason Jinx's YouTube channel has died. But it did affect it greatly.  The FineBros were up next after their decision to trademark "react videos". However the Content Cop didn't add much to the already sinking ship that was their channel. They did decide to change their decision to trademark "react videos". Overall the Content Cop didn't affe...
