NEXT TOOK ACADEMY EPISODE COMING THIS WEEK (Tuesday). This video was filmed a long time ago and the network just approved the upload so posting it now. Ok bye have a nice watch 🫣 (obligatory Chris James shoutout for letting me use his title and thumbnail)
What about the wife at the end who reluctantly agreed that MAYBE it would be good for the kids if she provided a nurturing environment. Lol for such a “smart” family they had the EQ of dirt. Kid is literally just now learning about empathy.
@@VGbeck22 it's not like the other family seemed to have much empathy either, at least not toward their mom who was providing a "nurturing environment" only in the sense that she did everything for them
“It would’ve been nice if she softened the blow” -the kid who told her she’s “less intelligent” than everyone in the house, including a 4 year old, twice.
tbf she is. not just with school stuff but with her "punishments" too, she wrote on the kids forehead when they used "big words". those were all super simple words
@@cicelypatterson3927 she is less educated yes, less intelligent? maybe, we dont really know her and these shows are heavily scripted. i just think its wrong to see people as less intelligent bc they had less or worse education than u did.
the same kid said facts are more important than feelings. the irony lol. he's lacking in social skills cuz he should know by now its important to have tact and u dont have to express everything u feel. i wonder where he is now
Karen has battered wife syndrome for sure. She’s been emotionally and psychologically beaten down by her husband. She physically hides behind her hair and has suppressed her emotions to the point that she easily breaks down and can’t self regulate.
Lmfao first of all, that’s a made-up pop psychology syndrome, so you just diagnosed someone with a fake mental illness. That’s a great start for a classically incorrect UA-cam comment written by someone without any formal psychology training.
@@megand12345Read your comment again and notice the word “scripted.” It’s SCRIPTED. They purposely emphasize certain stereotypical characteristics of families and blow them out of proportion and have everyone act in their new roles. We have no idea how much of this is just bad acting and fake stuff that the TV producers thought of to entertain viewers
I’m sure that kid has been bullied at some point, he has intellect for sure, but didn’t have the wisdom to realize he was also bullying people with his intellect. I’m glad to see a change, but he is the kind of person that college ethics classes were designed for.
Little edgelord thought other people's feelings don't matter because he hasnt discovered empathy yet. But expects everyone else to be considerate of his feelings.
He can’t be that intelligent because if he was, he’d realize that telling someone that they’re ‘not intelligent’ accomplishes nothing. He also sums up her intelligence purely based upon the fact that they have absolutely nothing in common, instead of trying to draw and pull from her experiences and understand her. Him and his family are a bunch of pretentious looney toons and I hope he grew out of it. He reminds me of how much of an edgelord my little brother was until someone finally snapped and told him about himself.
They’re the lucky ones cuz wow was this a dumpster fire of a show 😂 But yeah I don’t know how anyone even remotely familiar with this era of realty tv hasn’t at least heard of this one
The hick mom teaching the redditor son that feelings exist by making him crush on a pretty country girl who thought he was a neckbeard emotionally was my favorite parenting move in all of Wife Swap history. Well done, lady. Well done.
@@TheFeed816 Maybe. Based on his reaction there is still hope for him though, I think. If he was a full-blown incel he'd be ruminating about what a stupid whore she was and how females are nothing but worthless, manipulative baby ovens. Instead he reflected on his own failure to think of her as an actual human being with feelings. That's a step in the right direction, IMO.
What defines a Reddit? I see some use it as a pejorative. But what connotations does being a Redditor imply? I admit, I used Reddit to keep up with my favorite content creators and fandoms. Everyone seems nice. It is not this obvious caricature of a person like a Discord mod or a 4chan dweller. Where a lot of sex pests and bigots meet up. I don't get how that applies to a forum website that covers thousands of topics. Is it just kind of the place on the Internet where people you don't politically agree with go to?
I feel awful for Karen. She's clearly a very loving and affectionate person, and she uses that to try to get people to treat her better, but they end up just treating her like a doormat instead. I also hate the way the ghost hunter family treated her. I hated that they went out of their way to belittle her, and saw no issue with that, but when she tried to illustrate to them how they made her feel, they acted like she was a vicious monster. The poor woman couldn't catch a break anywhere. Her lifestyle is the stuff of nightmares for me, but that doesn't make her any less deserving of respect. I hope she's doing better now. Edit: When the teenage boy was on a date, and he defined "armature" theories as a synonym for abstract theories, I immediately looked it up because that didn't sound right to me. Turns out that is nowhere close to the actual definition. They literally just throw around big words and hope nobody knows the difference 🤣
Exactly my thoughts about Karen! Also yeah, that "armchair theory" definition was not correct and it honestly makes me a bit mad how they're acting like these are such big, incomprehensible words like,,,,read a science textbook or something idk
Unfortunately living in a toxic situation for long periods of time often makes you a toxic person as well, shown by Karen literally making everyone dumb themselves down, belittle themselves in order to make herself feel better, and destroy their property. Her situation sucks, but she isn't innocent either, I don't entirely feel bad for her
The definition he gave of armchair theories is so funny. That's like the way a person who is biased against armchair theories would define it. What a little P.O.S.
@@Anna-ik8nn I don't think it's horrible for people to be like "oh, shit, that's what that feels like? I don't like it, so I won't do it again". The boy still didn't get it until she "hurt his feelings" by telling him what his date thought, but he goes around hurting other people's feelings all the time (and the mom justifies it, too, at the end of the episode). But "regressive" is too big a word? really? And the ripping up the pictures, too, is also terrible, and I'm glad the dad's attitude flicked like a switch at that. Not to mention belittling the guy for *checks notes* taking care of his children. I was surprised that two words from a 14-year-old made her cry but her husband tearing her down and calling her a maid and going "you're stupid, boobies? boobies make you dumb? you get??" doesn't affect her.
@@gennix404you sound very open minded and non judgmental and you sound like you don’t stereotype people like how the "macho" guy stereotypes women. I’m very proud of you 😊
@@caitie2010absolutely! Dads are parents, too, and ought to act like it. Some of my best memories are things like my dad teaching me how to cook and reading me bedtime stories. That's just what you're supposed to do!
Kid to new mom: You're unintelligent and your feelings don't matter. New mom to kid: Your date felt degraded and you made her feel stupid. Kid: I wish Karen had softened the blow and not been so mean to me. 😢
Honestly they both needed to hear their faults. The fact that she said “perspective” and “encompass” were big words was hilarious. And that kid being told women aren’t going to like him because of his attitude was needed.
@@chilltheheckoutwithava1454LOL I didn’t realize it til I read this comment but that’s literally an exact quote from the fucking Myers-Briggs test. Why is that so funny to me
@@ll2323I think you need to unpack why it's funny to you that someone wasn't fortunate enough to receive the same education that you did. Do you think all of poverty is funny or just when the people suffering it make you feel big and smart?
The homemaker mom had her first moment of power and instantly went to destroy the family's personal property. I'm glad the "submissive" husband did a swift 180 and immediately called her out on it. I don't think Shane's a beta, I think he's honestly more confident and secure about himself than the macho dad who practically thought his dick would fall off if he washed a dish. Shane's still weird for telling his pseudointellectual kids they have superpowers though.
@@FrenkTheJoyHe’s using it in the normal way, which is a short term word that ascribes someone a particular set of traits, so they do “exist”, just in a subjective way based on opinion and observation and not science and testing
imagine thinking the worst part of this show being called that. not dementia the kids so they never have friends, not having a mother who has ever shown affection and hates kids, not claiming shohonee family indoctrination, not living with your whole school mocking that you are part of a ghost hunting family, not that your mom went to live with another man and your dad said it was ok. or imagine taking the first line to comment on being terrible, without watching for the rest of the extensive list enormous flaws.
The ghost family shows exactly how to raise a narcissist. Yes tell your kid they have powers other people dont, and they are more intelligent. They taught them to feel superior to others instead of connecting with them. The most foolish thing in the world, is to think one knows everything.
My cousin was sort of raised like this with the influence coming from his dad’s side of the family. But I feel since he had to adapt to public school it was almost like exposure therapy in a beneficial way when he was away from his dad’s family.
The other family is also raising narcissists though. Have you ever met those kind of people who scream at their mother to do their choirs? The type of people who throw fits because they are asked to rake a yard or pick up or do dishes? Because I’ve met those people are they are a lot worse than some one who is smart and is proud of being smart. The ghost stuff is funky but it’s not as bad as what the other family is doing to not only the mother but the kids.
@@gennix404both families are flawed because their human but the hunting family is definitely worst. I agree with OP though, telling them they are better will just create conflict in their lives.
The gender roles are so weird because aren’t men “supposed” to fix things in the house? Change light bulbs, fix the plumbing, and stuff? Wild. What does he even do?
Exactly he just came off as a jerk. Like I can understand everyone having different jobs but he literally said he just sits around. But also way back in the day woman did a whole lot in the house. Like actually fixing everything also buying property and handling finances. Making clothes to. For men it was back breaking work. You can tell how the roles stuck around but things just got easier.
I'm not surprised, a huge chunk of men don't even want to get jobs anymore and expect the women in their lives to do that for them too. Not even like the dad-mum in this video either because he at least did other things in return.
my god the ghost hunter kids… i hope to god they go to public school at some point and get humbled. they’re the type to say “its precipitating” instead of just saying its fucking raining
@@registeredjopperyea sure if you do it ironically. if you’re intentionally using big words like that you’re just trying to feel superior over other people and want them to see you as intelligent
@@buchstaben-suppeor are autistic and just talk like that. I don’t use big words just to feel smart… it’s just what I think of to use. It wouldn’t kill you to enrich your vocabulary either. Like you don’t have to, but show me where the big words hurt you
The mom in the camo house is no joke a victim of domestic abuse from her husband and kids. She unironically needs to escape her situation, I hope she's doing OK now.
@@fangal12 It's somehow easy to forget that most/all of these type of reality shows are either entirely fake or are edited in a way to make the people seem insane. It's garbage TV, but entertaining to see reaction vids about.
@@HumanPerson_finalnot completely. There's kids from these shows that are adults now and some of the families were worse than depicted. Also that episode with Corey Feldman is so sugar coated. He runs a s*x cult
It’s heavily scripted to play up the craziest characteristics of families and the dynamics that play best for audiences. Your watching to see crazy families not normal families and they know that. Don’t be too worried about her it’s not real.
25:52- yes, traditionally, a woman cleans and cares for the home. But, NO, the traditional male does not sit back and "watch" her. He goes to work and provides, not staying home and just watching the woman work while he sits home all day. It's traditional not because it's unequal but it's because the two people do two different things that they are typically better at. The man "should" be working too.
he didnt even believe that there are men who genuinely think women are only meant for being mothers and wives. growing up catholic, they taught us that women arent capable of thinking for themselves, that they were made only for their husbands, like they werent even human beings. it always pissed me off and i’m not even a woman, i just remember feeling angry my younger sister was being taught she has no use outside of the home. to this day, i would rather die than have my sister end up thinking like that, thinking so little of herself. and now here i am majoring in biology, realizing that its not only morally wrong but also straight up scientifically wrong
@@mr.bingusthecat Yeah I grew up in a similar environment with catholic influence. The older men in my family would tell me that women are objects and you should just use them for their lady parts. I actually ruined a relationship with a great woman because I believed that stuff. Luckily I grew out of that mindset in my early 20's and learned not to be a womanizer or misogynist.
I love this kids, they act smart and constantly use big words- wrong. Every person I know with a big vocabulary doesn't constantly use them. There's no need for it in the majority of conversations.
Like how the daughter uses “floccinaucinihilipilification” as a retort, when it means saying something is worthless. And the girl doesn’t even see the irony in using that as her “big word”.
@@ness7342 i found that so ironic he likes smart girls then something about words that dont make sense? perfectly describes him but minus the intelligent part. you can only be so intelligent believing in the paranormal.
The production team 100% makes up the “handbook” itself, maybe the moms would give their basic “schedule/routine” but then the production team def added their own rules to it.
My white dude friends will suddenly do this and we're almost thirty. They act like I'm weird because I'm close to my mom and joke with her. It's fucking weird.
@@calebmalpin6926 as a white dude that loves and respects his mother, ur right its a real weird thing to see. Cant imagine treating her bad after all she's done for me
duuuuuuude i feel this with my grandma (who raised me), she's the sweetest most giving person, but when people have been moody towards her i just sit there like "uh oh, imma just...evaporate"
He basically plays mom and dad to his kids because the mom doesn’t want to parent (ie be a cool friend mom ) so basically a single dad who has to work double as a parent
@@Sarahonwheels more like women are expected to do the majority of household work and childraising, be caring, nurturing and looking after their husbands, while men are are supposed to not care that much for their children and be focused on their work. A different setup works for this family and the shows getting their little shaming him for it in (and to get a bigger contrast with the other dad)
If you think the picture ripping bad, there was a mom on Wife Swap that burned the other families stuff. I think it was religion stuff she didn't agree with, but I don't really remember. I'll update if I figure out what episode it was. Update: Based on what I could find, the thing burned in was, essentially, a family memory book; the family would write down dreams and things about their day they thought were important. Luckily it also appears that the producers meddled in that case and had the wife burn a replica, the children were unaware though.
That kind of stuff would have sent me over the edge. You can play pretend all you want, but the second you start thinking it's ok to destroy MY property like you own the place, I'm done. These people are so disrespectful of each other's beliefs, it's just hateful.
i was so happy when the dad immediately shut that shit down, it was completely unacceptable behavior from an adult. So was the head writing, and then she has the nerve to act like theyre being mean? those are borderline abusive punishments! and i say borderline just bc we didnt see enough of her doing it!
There was another episode where a lady forced a man who was in the acting business to burn all of his head shots and portfolios while she and his daughter watched. She smiled the whole time, it was genuinely horrifying. What was the point in burning the memory book in that episode
People who say that they're very intelligent, usually aren't that smart. They like to mask it with random trivia and uncommon words, mixed with acting condescending.
I think house husbands should and could be more normalized, as long as someone's looking after things at home and someone's bringing in an income or it's split it shouldn't matter who dose which based on gender
The ghost family kids thinking they are smart is hilarious. "I can use big words and I'm smarter than you" isn't showing intelligence. They are in for a rude awakening as adults.
Part of intelligence is being able to communicate ideas without being confusing. The shit they're saying would get brutalized by any book editor or English teacher for being rambly and repetitive
But FACTUALLY, he is correct. Her IQ is way way lower than the family of super bright children. Bahahaha😂😂😂😂 I just heard Kentucky, I am from there. This men definitely exist
My favourite episode of this show was on the UK version. Stay at home mum went and lived with a family of bikers and BECAME A BIKER. The biker mum got the other family to respect their mum and the two families became friends and the other family joined the biker gang from the biker family.
Thank you for commenting on the awkward pose at the beginning that seems like a still photo, but is actually video. It's so unsettling and feels like the beginning of a horror film
Also, the narrator is so unserious and so messy! he loves to spout off shade at a million mph, just seeing if we will notice "Her kids who say she doesn't even like them...." *Ana oop* shots fired! 😂
Hunting ghosts in a graveyard is the dumbest thing ever too. If there even were ghosts (which there aren't) they'd be where they died and not at the gravesite. 🤷♂️
@@ZERO_O7Xif ghosts were real we'd have no clue how they work, they could be attatched to their corpse, or just like to check in on their corpse, also the fact that alot of people go to their family members graves to talk to them they could hang around there to be there for those times There's all sorts of theories about how ghosts might work: • they could attatch to the place they died • they could attatch to places important to them during their life • they could attatch to people important to them during their life • they could attatch to people they hated during their life • they could simply be ethereal beings that are free to explore wherever the hell they please
Ugh I hate that trad-wife attitude that women should do literally everything around the house while the men and kids just "keep the couch warm." That's NEVER been a thing. I mean in the 50s the kids would do the dishes after dinner, and dad would be expected to at least mow the lawn and maintain the car. And like a hundred years ago the kids would still have chores even though they were probably also working.
I am in my 40s only my Mom didn’t help around the house. The majority of the work was us kids and my Dad doing most of the major maintenance. Which he also taught be because I wanted to learn.
My mom was like that doing everything but when she got sick so badly & almost died And had multiple mental illnesses That really made the family fall apart. That also made me to not want to be a wife and mom. It also made me stand up for her and hate my poor dad. In the end they both became more of a team. He stood by her & held onto her so much but when he got sick she got a little sick too but walked out on him just to come back and walk out again Than saw him near his death bed sadly he passed away & because of her choices his death was a bitter bye instead of as sweet as it should have been. People take care of yourselves before trying to take care of others. Also be the best version of yourself, before there's no time to try again. Love all you can too but rightly. Appreciate & cherish.
I love that the one family was incredibly misogynistic and the other family is just like… weird lmao i feel like those two things are not on the same level but idk
@@jamesgentry13no one is saying that. It’s very obvious the dad sees women in a very misogynistic way. It’s totally fine to be a stay at home mom. But calling your wife a maid? And expecting her to doing everything is not okay.
@@jamesgentry13the original comment is not talking about traditional families so it says more you brought it up when you heard the words misogynistic. Also im seeing you around in the comments saying similar stuff like "feminist want a submissive" so I think it's pretty clear where you coming from
@@deathpresent101 you realize this show is confirmed fake as fuck right? They outright make the families play stereotypes that either exaggerations of their real lives or outright fabricated. I guarantee if there was a real look into their lives they were just a normal family.
Right?! That frustrated so much because she was calling him a sissy, but her of all people should know how difficult it is to upkeep an entire house alone.
that’s one of many reasons why I think this show has scripts. maybe they do actually cast real families but for the drama they give them certain roles to play. that’s why every single one of them can have such character development in only 2 weeks, where they basically do a 180 on their bad behaviour and can suddenly see the world clearly. (despite still thinking they’re ghost hunters and have super powers?? yeah no this show is fake)
Thanks for bringing up how EXTREMELY uncomfortable it is for EVERYONE when kids act like this . I grew up with a family of 3 girls that constantly cussed out their parents. As adults, they are MISERABLE human beings.
Honestly I want to be a housewife. I like cooking and cleaning. I like taking care of people. But that doesn't mean I'm a doormat. That doesn't mean my husband can't change a light bulb just out of laziness. That doesn't mean they ring a bell and I come running. You clean the house and you cook three meals a day. If they want snacks, they need to get up and get their own snacks
Yeah, there should be more attention to how if someone wants that kinda life it CAN be done healthily and doesn’t have to be this toxic, mysoginistic glorified slavery. People, all people, should be able to have the choice to live the life right for them. If that falls under “traditional” or stereotypical gender roles, fine. If it doesn’t, fine. If it’s a mix, fine. Neither is better or above the other and shaming women that do opt for the “traditional” or stereotypically feminine stuff is only making the same problem but in the other direction. What matters is that it’s their own choice and they’re happy with it. Neither should be treated or depicted as the “right” or only option, but all of it should be treated and depicted as AN option!
That’s wonderful! One of my friends is a homemaker and she’s honestly an inspiration to me. She’s one of the kindest, well-spoken, intelligent, and thoughtful person I know. I grew up in an area where I was constantly pressured to just be a “wife and mom” so meeting someone who was passionately feminist and also wanted to be a housewife was really awesome to see. It’s all about freedom of choice and everyone - housewife, McDonald’s worker, corporate exec - deserves to be treated with respect and kindness.
I can explain the difference between a ghost and a ghoul. A ghost is a disembodied spirit that is usually bound to a place or object. A ghoul is a living creature that eats corpses. They're not cannibals perse because they're not human but a human can become a ghoul by eating corpses. They normally live in graveyards but in they're earlier years they can manage to live amongst humans up to a point.
Man, every single person in this show is awful! Both families were rude and cruel to each other. The kids straight up showing no remorse after insulting an entire family they never met shows how horrible they were raised, and mom straight up not even liking kids like... why did you even have them then? Then husband on the other side was one of the most misogynistic people I've ever seen, at least the rest of that family was polite and kind.
The misogynistic husband's kids were also pretty bad tbh. Very spoiled, treated their own mom like garbage and were also pretty mean to the other mom initially
@JupiHornet1 You guys know the Horseshoe Effect? What we have here that rhe families on both families curve so much that they meet in the middle again, and it becomes just one full circle of shittiness.
To be fair those ghost hunter kids are pretty annoying, I would hate kids too if I had to listen to some pretentious little clown tell me about poltergeist after I worked all day.
God i know a slave mom. I feel so bad for her. I wish i could still talk to her, i wanna help her so much. Shes miserable and husband made her stop talking to us
i remember reading somewhere actually being very smart is having the ability to explain the topic to a 5 year old. i feel like the kids are using big words because it makes them feel smart and not because its the proper terminology. but then again i have no clue what they are talking about 😵💫. this is just my two cents
For how ridiculous this show and this episode is, that message from submissive dad-mom about being twice the man for being adept in the workplace AND adept in the home is actually pretty powerful. Damn wasn’t expecting to feel moved by this one.
It is absolutely WILD to me that the oldest son didn’t realize that his words and actions have emotional consequences. He looked to be at least 15 or 16. I learned that when I was probably 6 years old. It was one of the first things I learned from my parents. It is part of basic decency and respect. You can still be very smart and also treat others like human beings. It really took him having HIS feelings hurt to learn that. Has he never been bullied for how he acts? What have his parents been teaching him all these years besides how to be a narcissistic asshat? He had the emotional capacity of a toddler. I hope he has changed.
Yeah if you have to constantly say how smart you are then you can't be that smart. They're just overcompensating to make themselves feel better than others.
I love how condescending that teen is to the other mom and thinks hes super smart yet also believes in spooky ghosts and goes out on legitimate hunting trips with his family to catch them 😂
It’s not that it’s that the dad now had to explain to a 4 year old about humiliation because he didn’t want his impressionable child think it was okay to treat others like that. Yea it was her rules but she’s only there temporary, he is still the dad and decides what he wants his kids to learn.
I feel that gunnar when I was at my friend's houses and they talked back to their parents I was like bro you about to get grounded and me sent home what you doing? Just wash the 2 dishes in the sink and take out the trash hahaha.
Okay, these moms are definitely a huge part of the problem in there families. The "working" mom is one of the most delusional people I have ever had the displeasure of seeing, and never should have had kids, and the stay at home mom is literally giving into abusive, misogynistic practices and accepting them, while trying to spread them to the other family. Who cares if the dad is the stay at home one? It doesn't matter. Both of these families are AWFUL.
The country mom is a victim of mysgony herself. Theyre bleeding her dry. The man is a psychotic abuser and I do not like the way he treats the daughter either.
@@whatever3145 yea. but she is also repeating it and spreading it herself. she is ultimately a victim, but I think it is fair to critizise her for trying to victimize others
@@jurgnobs1308 Also the fact that only the wives actually "swap". The husbands have 1 change in dynamic whereas the wives have to deal with a different household, partner, children and day-to-day life.
Hearing the kids in the ghost hunter family talk about economics (negative externalities and regressive vs. progressive taxes) but clearly not actually understanding what they are talking about in any detail is just as silly when you do know what they are saying. If they actually understood anything about the human element of economics (because it is a study of human behavior) they would know the barriers (of all kinds) put in place to things like education, I think they would have to confront their own biases. Using big words does not make you better than anyone else, nor does it make what you are saying inherently more worthwhile. Maybe if they opened themselves up to trying to explain what they were meaning in a more assessable way instead of insulting her everyone would have a much better time. Karen is the sort of woman who needs to understand there is more that she can strive for, and all the kids are doing is keeping her in a little box. Nerd stuff: The way they use the words isn't incorrect, though saying negative externalities "bring about market failure" isn't right (it is only a market friction, unlikely to take down a robust market). Often, negative externalities are rather a problem of insufficient allocation of property rights, rather than a failing in themselves. Markets fail for a whole lot of reasons, and negative externalities are not actually on the top of the list for most nations, because many people are more concerned about their next meal than things like pollution. But even if they were 100% right, the kids are just being classist and need to take themselves down a notch.
It seemed like they were more interested in the "flex" than anything useful or interesting about that information. I was guilty of this as a child too. When you're missing out on friends, family, and hobbies in relation to other kids sometimes your identity becomes how smart you are.
That step dad did not learning anything other than what my step dad learned. He doesn’t have to clean he just has to make his kids do it. He still sees it as women’s work and is just going to bully those poor kids into being his personal maid crew. Watch closely as he never actually helps and never says he’s going to. Just that “they” will help.
No he was insufferable too. He was right about her ripping up the photo was wrong but instead of saying “you were disrespectful” he said “ripping that up proves you’re not intelligent!” You can tell his kids inflated egos come from him. He also is a pseudo intellectual which makes it even more insufferable when he puts other peoples intelligence down. He was very annoying. Country mom was probably the most normal and least annoying tho I didn’t like that she ripped the picture up. The ghost hunting mom was also not as bad but she was still arrogant like her husband. Country mom was the most likable.
@@I-hate-youtube797 Why wouldn't he say that? She came to the conclusion that the best way to get respect from them was to destroy their property. It was stupid and he was right to point out the irony.
I love how the ghost hunter mom was trying to diffuse the tension 😂😂 he called his step daughter a liar and she’s like “Do you guys want dressing on your salad???”

Karen has battered wife syndrome for sure. She’s been emotionally and psychologically beaten down by her husband. She physically hides behind her hair and has suppressed her emotions to the point that she easily breaks down and can’t self regulate.

@@beepbeeplettuce5890yes you can absolutely tell when a scripted character is being ab*sed
Lmfao first of all, that’s a made-up pop psychology syndrome, so you just diagnosed someone with a fake mental illness. That’s a great start for a classically incorrect UA-cam comment written by someone without any formal psychology training.
@@megand12345Read your comment again and notice the word “scripted.” It’s SCRIPTED. They purposely emphasize certain stereotypical characteristics of families and blow them out of proportion and have everyone act in their new roles.

@@soberserotonin1850 yes scripted, there are college classes on studying scripted characters. You can analyze them
The "well I had a gay cousin" line was probably the most realistic line of the entire show for a southern person
To be fair at that point I wouldn’t be surprised if the husband came out as gay after that scene.
Kid went from "the truth is more important than someone's feelings" to "I wish she would've been softer about it" real quick
@@ness7342 lol it's almost as if reality tv isn't completely true
I’m sure that kid has been bullied at some point, he has intellect for sure, but didn’t have the wisdom to realize he was also bullying people with his intellect. I’m glad to see a change, but he is the kind of person that college ethics classes were designed for.
Little edgelord thought other people's feelings don't matter because he hasnt discovered empathy yet. But expects everyone else to be considerate of his feelings.
He's a king baby
He can’t be that intelligent because if he was, he’d realize that telling someone that they’re ‘not intelligent’ accomplishes nothing. He also sums up her intelligence purely based upon the fact that they have absolutely nothing in common, instead of trying to draw and pull from her experiences and understand her. Him and his family are a bunch of pretentious looney toons and I hope he grew out of it. He reminds me of how much of an edgelord my little brother was until someone finally snapped and told him about himself.

The hick mom teaching the redditor son that feelings exist by making him crush on a pretty country girl who thought he was a neckbeard emotionally was my favorite parenting move in all of Wife Swap history. Well done, lady. Well done.
Literally just pushed him further into incel territory though lol
@@TheFeed816 Maybe. Based on his reaction there is still hope for him though, I think. If he was a full-blown incel he'd be ruminating about what a stupid whore she was and how females are nothing but worthless, manipulative baby ovens. Instead he reflected on his own failure to think of her as an actual human being with feelings. That's a step in the right direction, IMO.

What defines a Reddit? I see some use it as a pejorative. But what connotations does being a Redditor imply? I admit, I used Reddit to keep up with my favorite content creators and fandoms. Everyone seems nice. It is not this obvious caricature of a person like a Discord mod or a 4chan dweller. Where a lot of sex pests and bigots meet up. I don't get how that applies to a forum website that covers thousands of topics. Is it just kind of the place on the Internet where people you don't politically agree with go to?
@@kab9706 no doubt, just saying this didn't help lol
on today's episode of wife swap we have a kooky ghost hunting mom and an actual battered woman.
Him: is a stay at home dad
Wife Swap Producers: SUBMISSIVE DAD MOM
I feel awful for Karen. She's clearly a very loving and affectionate person, and she uses that to try to get people to treat her better, but they end up just treating her like a doormat instead. I also hate the way the ghost hunter family treated her. I hated that they went out of their way to belittle her, and saw no issue with that, but when she tried to illustrate to them how they made her feel, they acted like she was a vicious monster. The poor woman couldn't catch a break anywhere. Her lifestyle is the stuff of nightmares for me, but that doesn't make her any less deserving of respect. I hope she's doing better now.
Edit: When the teenage boy was on a date, and he defined "armature" theories as a synonym for abstract theories, I immediately looked it up because that didn't sound right to me. Turns out that is nowhere close to the actual definition. They literally just throw around big words and hope nobody knows the difference 🤣
Exactly my thoughts about Karen! Also yeah, that "armchair theory" definition was not correct and it honestly makes me a bit mad how they're acting like these are such big, incomprehensible words like,,,,read a science textbook or something idk
I hope she eventually was able to live the life she wants with someone who actually respects her.
Unfortunately living in a toxic situation for long periods of time often makes you a toxic person as well, shown by Karen literally making everyone dumb themselves down, belittle themselves in order to make herself feel better, and destroy their property. Her situation sucks, but she isn't innocent either, I don't entirely feel bad for her
The definition he gave of armchair theories is so funny. That's like the way a person who is biased against armchair theories would define it. What a little P.O.S.
@@Anna-ik8nn I don't think it's horrible for people to be like "oh, shit, that's what that feels like? I don't like it, so I won't do it again". The boy still didn't get it until she "hurt his feelings" by telling him what his date thought, but he goes around hurting other people's feelings all the time (and the mom justifies it, too, at the end of the episode). But "regressive" is too big a word? really? And the ripping up the pictures, too, is also terrible, and I'm glad the dad's attitude flicked like a switch at that. Not to mention belittling the guy for *checks notes* taking care of his children.
I was surprised that two words from a 14-year-old made her cry but her husband tearing her down and calling her a maid and going "you're stupid, boobies? boobies make you dumb? you get??" doesn't affect her.
Okay, but...........we saw an actual grown man throw a tantrum after being asked to wash the dishes of one meal.
I mean, yeah. those types of folks are fragile as hell when it comes to questioning their worldview

or imagine taking the first line to comment on being terrible, without watching for the rest of the extensive list enormous flaws.

The ghost family shows exactly how to raise a narcissist. Yes tell your kid they have powers other people dont, and they are more intelligent. They taught them to feel superior to others instead of connecting with them. The most foolish thing in the world, is to think one knows everything.
My cousin was sort of raised like this with the influence coming from his dad’s side of the family. But I feel since he had to adapt to public school it was almost like exposure therapy in a beneficial way when he was away from his dad’s family.
One of my favorite quotes ever. A fool thinks he knows everything. A wise man knows he knows nothing.
The other family is also raising narcissists though. Have you ever met those kind of people who scream at their mother to do their choirs? The type of people who throw fits because they are asked to rake a yard or pick up or do dishes? Because I’ve met those people are they are a lot worse than some one who is smart and is proud of being smart. The ghost stuff is funky but it’s not as bad as what the other family is doing to not only the mother but the kids.
THAT was the family you had a problem with?
@@gennix404both families are flawed because their human but the hunting family is definitely worst. I agree with OP though, telling them they are better will just create conflict in their lives.

Yea when tf did he even go to work. It seems like he was just frothing in misery at the house 24/7
Exactly he just came off as a jerk. Like I can understand everyone having different jobs but he literally said he just sits around. But also way back in the day woman did a whole lot in the house. Like actually fixing everything also buying property and handling finances. Making clothes to. For men it was back breaking work. You can tell how the roles stuck around but things just got easier.
I'm not surprised, a huge chunk of men don't even want to get jobs anymore and expect the women in their lives to do that for them too. Not even like the dad-mum in this video either because he at least did other things in return.

@@HumanPerson_finalnot completely. There's kids from these shows that are adults now and some of the families were worse than depicted. Also that episode with Corey Feldman is so sugar coated. He runs a s*x cult
It’s heavily scripted to play up the craziest characteristics of families and the dynamics that play best for audiences. Your watching to see crazy families not normal families and they know that. Don’t be too worried about her it’s not real.
25:52- yes, traditionally, a woman cleans and cares for the home. But, NO, the traditional male does not sit back and "watch" her. He goes to work and provides, not staying home and just watching the woman work while he sits home all day. It's traditional not because it's unequal but it's because the two people do two different things that they are typically better at. The man "should" be working too.

Kinda scary if bro is so willing to be this way on camera
It’s crazy how he doesn’t believe in ghosts either some of us can actually see and feel their presence
he didnt even believe that there are men who genuinely think women are only meant for being mothers and wives. growing up catholic, they taught us that women arent capable of thinking for themselves, that they were made only for their husbands, like they werent even human beings. it always pissed me off and i’m not even a woman, i just remember feeling angry my younger sister was being taught she has no use outside of the home. to this day, i would rather die than have my sister end up thinking like that, thinking so little of herself. and now here i am majoring in biology, realizing that its not only morally wrong but also straight up scientifically wrong
@@mr.bingusthecat Yeah I grew up in a similar environment with catholic influence.
The older men in my family would tell me that women are objects and you should just use them for their lady parts.

Luckily I grew out of that mindset in my early 20's and learned not to be a womanizer or misogynist.

If you think the picture ripping bad, there was a mom on Wife Swap that burned the other families stuff. I think it was religion stuff she didn't agree with, but I don't really remember. I'll update if I figure out what episode it was. Update: Based on what I could find, the thing burned in was, essentially, a family memory book; the family would write down dreams and things about their day they thought were important. Luckily it also appears that the producers meddled in that case and had the wife burn a replica, the children were unaware though.
That kind of stuff would have sent me over the edge. You can play pretend all you want, but the second you start thinking it's ok to destroy MY property like you own the place, I'm done. These people are so disrespectful of each other's beliefs, it's just hateful.
i was so happy when the dad immediately shut that shit down, it was completely unacceptable behavior from an adult. So was the head writing, and then she has the nerve to act like theyre being mean? those are borderline abusive punishments! and i say borderline just bc we didnt see enough of her doing it!
I’m pretty sure the picture ripping and what you’re talking about is all staged and they have them do that for drama
There was another episode where a lady forced a man who was in the acting business to burn all of his head shots and portfolios while she and his daughter watched. She smiled the whole time, it was genuinely horrifying. What was the point in burning the memory book in that episode
People who say that they're very intelligent, usually aren't that smart. They like to mask it with random trivia and uncommon words, mixed with acting condescending.

Ugh I hate that trad-wife attitude that women should do literally everything around the house while the men and kids just "keep the couch warm." That's NEVER been a thing. I mean in the 50s the kids would do the dishes after dinner, and dad would be expected to at least mow the lawn and maintain the car. And like a hundred years ago the kids would still have chores even though they were probably also working.
I am in my 40s only my Mom didn’t help around the house. The majority of the work was us kids and my Dad doing most of the major maintenance. Which he also taught be because I wanted to learn.
My mom was like that doing everything but when she got sick so badly & almost died And had multiple mental illnesses That really made the family fall apart. That also made me to not want to be a wife and mom. It also made me stand up for her and hate my poor dad. In the end they both became more of a team. He stood by her & held onto her so much but when he got sick she got a little sick too but walked out on him just to come back and walk out again Than saw him near his death bed sadly he passed away & because of her choices his death was a bitter bye instead of as sweet as it should have been. People take care of yourselves before trying to take care of others. Also be the best version of yourself, before there's no time to try again. Love all you can too but rightly. Appreciate & cherish.
Exactly! 1950's was division of house and family labor.

@@deathpresent101 you realize this show is confirmed fake as fuck right? They outright make the families play stereotypes that either exaggerations of their real lives or outright fabricated. I guarantee if there was a real look into their lives they were just a normal family.
Karen wanted her husband to help out more but then accused the other mom of trying to feminize him.
had to save face is what im guessing
Right?! That frustrated so much because she was calling him a sissy, but her of all people should know how difficult it is to upkeep an entire house alone.
that’s one of many reasons why I think this show has scripts. maybe they do actually cast real families but for the drama they give them certain roles to play. that’s why every single one of them can have such character development in only 2 weeks, where they basically do a 180 on their bad behaviour and can suddenly see the world clearly. (despite still thinking they’re ghost hunters and have super powers?? yeah no this show is fake)
Internalised Misogyny is a helluva drug.
Thanks for bringing up how EXTREMELY uncomfortable it is for EVERYONE when kids act like this . I grew up with a family of 3 girls that constantly cussed out their parents. As adults, they are MISERABLE human beings.
When he said submissive breedable husband and showed that dog. I died.
Im so glad i found this channel his humor is immaculate its like he says what im thinking 😂😂😂
the “smart” kids weren’t using 80% of the words they said correctly
yeah that "maid" woman is being abused by her whole family. this is also obviously a horrible environment for girls to grow up in
Honestly I want to be a housewife. I like cooking and cleaning. I like taking care of people. But that doesn't mean I'm a doormat. That doesn't mean my husband can't change a light bulb just out of laziness. That doesn't mean they ring a bell and I come running. You clean the house and you cook three meals a day. If they want snacks, they need to get up and get their own snacks
Yeah, it’s fine as long as you want to do it and are not being forced
That’s totally fine and I hope you find a loving partner!
Yeah, there should be more attention to how if someone wants that kinda life it CAN be done healthily and doesn’t have to be this toxic, mysoginistic glorified slavery. People, all people, should be able to have the choice to live the life right for them. If that falls under “traditional” or stereotypical gender roles, fine. If it doesn’t, fine. If it’s a mix, fine. Neither is better or above the other and shaming women that do opt for the “traditional” or stereotypically feminine stuff is only making the same problem but in the other direction. What matters is that it’s their own choice and they’re happy with it.
Neither should be treated or depicted as the “right” or only option, but all of it should be treated and depicted as AN option!
So you're saying you don't actually want to be a housewife rofl. "I want to be a Christian, but i'm not really into all this church and god stuff"
That’s wonderful! One of my friends is a homemaker and she’s honestly an inspiration to me. She’s one of the kindest, well-spoken, intelligent, and thoughtful person I know. I grew up in an area where I was constantly pressured to just be a “wife and mom” so meeting someone who was passionately feminist and also wanted to be a housewife was really awesome to see. It’s all about freedom of choice and everyone - housewife, McDonald’s worker, corporate exec - deserves to be treated with respect and kindness.
Appreciate your commentary. Breath of fresh air to these old shows lol.
I can explain the difference between a ghost and a ghoul. A ghost is a disembodied spirit that is usually bound to a place or object. A ghoul is a living creature that eats corpses. They're not cannibals perse because they're not human but a human can become a ghoul by eating corpses. They normally live in graveyards but in they're earlier years they can manage to live amongst humans up to a point.
Man, every single person in this show is awful! Both families were rude and cruel to each other. The kids straight up showing no remorse after insulting an entire family they never met shows how horrible they were raised, and mom straight up not even liking kids like... why did you even have them then? Then husband on the other side was one of the most misogynistic people I've ever seen, at least the rest of that family was polite and kind.
Exactly both families sucked
The misogynistic husband's kids were also pretty bad tbh. Very spoiled, treated their own mom like garbage and were also pretty mean to the other mom initially
@JupiHornet1 You guys know the Horseshoe Effect? What we have here that rhe families on both families curve so much that they meet in the middle again, and it becomes just one full circle of shittiness.
parents not liking kids is something more common than you can imagine... That usually creates very troubled adults.
To be fair those ghost hunter kids are pretty annoying, I would hate kids too if I had to listen to some pretentious little clown tell me about poltergeist after I worked all day.
God i know a slave mom. I feel so bad for her. I wish i could still talk to her, i wanna help her so much. Shes miserable and husband made her stop talking to us
There’s nothing that screams “I’m an insecure idiot” more than spending that much energy on trying to sound smart
i remember reading somewhere actually being very smart is having the ability to explain the topic to a 5 year old. i feel like the kids are using big words because it makes them feel smart and not because its the proper terminology. but then again i have no clue what they are talking about 😵💫. this is just my two cents
those "smart" people have like 3 buzz words they learned that morning
They literally just use buzz words n swear they’re smart. Literal cornballs who’ll get rightfully bullied.
"My supernatural power is that I get a headache."
Dude's irl kryptonite is just taking 2 Excedrin.
The psychic kids are going to telepathically ask her for drinks to be delivered.
This is the third time in my life that I'm glad I'm divorced! 😅 Being single isn't the worst thing in the world! 😂
"that one eye" haha that's why I love watching and rewatching Gunnartv makes me laugh. Well one of the reasons.
For how ridiculous this show and this episode is, that message from submissive dad-mom about being twice the man for being adept in the workplace AND adept in the home is actually pretty powerful. Damn wasn’t expecting to feel moved by this one.
It is absolutely WILD to me that the oldest son didn’t realize that his words and actions have emotional consequences. He looked to be at least 15 or 16. I learned that when I was probably 6 years old. It was one of the first things I learned from my parents. It is part of basic decency and respect. You can still be very smart and also treat others like human beings. It really took him having HIS feelings hurt to learn that. Has he never been bullied for how he acts? What have his parents been teaching him all these years besides how to be a narcissistic asshat? He had the emotional capacity of a toddler. I hope he has changed.
A lot of these Wife Swap kids are homeschooled, I wouldn't be surprised if they are.
Yeah if you have to constantly say how smart you are then you can't be that smart. They're just overcompensating to make themselves feel better than others.
how cute of you to assume we could rewind this show while we were watching it live on tlc
IM SUPRISED THIS LITTLE BOY HASNT SUFFERED FROM NIGHTMARES
I love how condescending that teen is to the other mom and thinks hes super smart yet also believes in spooky ghosts and goes out on legitimate hunting trips with his family to catch them 😂
As someone who had a stay at home dad, submissive dad mom is CRAZY
so disrespectful too, they really concentrated on the shots where he was taking care of laundry, like its really not that big of deal, goddamn
* accurate
brooooooooo
It's not traditional for children to boss their mothers around and be. rude.
It's not traditional to be force fed Plutonium, but guess what's going to happen to you.
@Chilloutlilbro take a tip from your own name bruv
@@Chilloutlilbro ah, what would the comment section be without trolls? I'm assuming you have the plutonium.
So it's bad to write on your heads but not for your kids to act like they are better than other people and treat them as such?
It’s not that it’s that the dad now had to explain to a 4 year old about humiliation because he didn’t want his impressionable child think it was okay to treat others like that. Yea it was her rules but she’s only there temporary, he is still the dad and decides what he wants his kids to learn.
@@ll2323 Except he does teach his kids to humiliate others. Just… not in that way and what he taught was that THEY should never be humiliated
@@ll2323 except he literally let his kids humiliate her
The "I just ate a mushroom" was a real Ralph Wiggum moment.
Just found your channel, I ain’t laughed this hard in a long time 😂😂
So, the straight up only good person in this show is the stay at home dad.
Not really he is raising little narcissists that believe they have special ghost powers. Everybody in this episode is cooked.
@@AstroBimpsonbingo
That and he’s definitely closeted
@@xavierculbyhow so? Being in touch with your feminine side doesn’t automatically make you gay…
The fact that he had to explain to his 4 year old about humiliation was kind of sad.
You have to do the episode where the ultra conservative Christian mom freaks out on the family of pagans.
That's trading spouses and it's super over played. The mom has long since changed her tune and there are countless videos discussing the episode
The God Warrior?
@shannonceleste5557 yeah she's like a major LGBT ally now lmao, good for her tbh 😭
@@shannonceleste5557 that's true, but the episode is still quite... Entertaining.
DORKSIDED!!!!!!! 22:19
Dude: MAKE ME BREAKFAST
ALSO DUDE: yeah I threw out my breakfast because it took an hour for her to make it
I feel that gunnar when I was at my friend's houses and they talked back to their parents I was like bro you about to get grounded and me sent home what you doing? Just wash the 2 dishes in the sink and take out the trash hahaha.
"Perspective" is not above a fourth grade vocabulary level. It is literally something your third grade art teacher would tell you about.
I feel like 4th grade is around when you learn about perspective in writing too.
Okay, these moms are definitely a huge part of the problem in there families. The "working" mom is one of the most delusional people I have ever had the displeasure of seeing, and never should have had kids, and the stay at home mom is literally giving into abusive, misogynistic practices and accepting them, while trying to spread them to the other family. Who cares if the dad is the stay at home one? It doesn't matter. Both of these families are AWFUL.
I mean, the show itself was ridiculously sexist. constantly calling the stay at home dad a "submissive dad mom". like, what the fuck lol
The country mom is a victim of mysgony herself. Theyre bleeding her dry. The man is a psychotic abuser and I do not like the way he treats the daughter either.
@@whatever3145 yea. but she is also repeating it and spreading it herself. she is ultimately a victim, but I think it is fair to critizise her for trying to victimize others
@@jurgnobs1308 Also the fact that only the wives actually "swap". The husbands have 1 change in dynamic whereas the wives have to deal with a different household, partner, children and day-to-day life.
@@voigto yea
Drew is a real psychopath. Like, legitimately did not understand that other people are people.
I think he may be acoustic, respectfully
@@charlizeball7717 I just wanted to point out that you have a typo before someone else tries to insult your intelligence for making a mistake.
@@Vivi_Pallasnah, people, like, feel things
@@Vivi_Pallasthere’s no typo
@@Vivi_Pallasi think the typo is on purpose, the "is he acoustic" thing is a meme
Hearing the kids in the ghost hunter family talk about economics (negative externalities and regressive vs. progressive taxes) but clearly not actually understanding what they are talking about in any detail is just as silly when you do know what they are saying.
If they actually understood anything about the human element of economics (because it is a study of human behavior) they would know the barriers (of all kinds) put in place to things like education, I think they would have to confront their own biases. Using big words does not make you better than anyone else, nor does it make what you are saying inherently more worthwhile. Maybe if they opened themselves up to trying to explain what they were meaning in a more assessable way instead of insulting her everyone would have a much better time. Karen is the sort of woman who needs to understand there is more that she can strive for, and all the kids are doing is keeping her in a little box.
Nerd stuff: The way they use the words isn't incorrect, though saying negative externalities "bring about market failure" isn't right (it is only a market friction, unlikely to take down a robust market). Often, negative externalities are rather a problem of insufficient allocation of property rights, rather than a failing in themselves. Markets fail for a whole lot of reasons, and negative externalities are not actually on the top of the list for most nations, because many people are more concerned about their next meal than things like pollution. But even if they were 100% right, the kids are just being classist and need to take themselves down a notch.
Okay, do you have a sharpie and a mirror? And can you write backwards?
@@baronofclubs oh no, my greatest weakness, a sharpie and a mirror
It seemed like they were more interested in the "flex" than anything useful or interesting about that information. I was guilty of this as a child too.
When you're missing out on friends, family, and hobbies in relation to other kids sometimes your identity becomes how smart you are.
Me and my mom call each other names all the time just because and I fuckin love it 😂
This is the first video I've watched of your... Your too funny definitely had to subscribe!
That step dad did not learning anything other than what my step dad learned. He doesn’t have to clean he just has to make his kids do it. He still sees it as women’s work and is just going to bully those poor kids into being his personal maid crew. Watch closely as he never actually helps and never says he’s going to. Just that “they” will help.
Craziest thing about this episode is that Gunnar thought ghosts and ghouls were the same thing. Jesus Christ..
Quite literally every single person in this episode is absolutely insufferable (except maybe the stay-at-home dad)
No he was insufferable too. He was right about her ripping up the photo was wrong but instead of saying “you were disrespectful” he said “ripping that up proves you’re not intelligent!” You can tell his kids inflated egos come from him. He also is a pseudo intellectual which makes it even more insufferable when he puts other peoples intelligence down. He was very annoying. Country mom was probably the most normal and least annoying tho I didn’t like that she ripped the picture up. The ghost hunting mom was also not as bad but she was still arrogant like her husband. Country mom was the most likable.
@@I-hate-youtube797 Why wouldn't he say that? She came to the conclusion that the best way to get respect from them was to destroy their property. It was stupid and he was right to point out the irony.
Dude looks and sounds like he was supposed to play mark Zuckerberg in the social network 😂
I love how the ghost hunter mom was trying to diffuse the tension 😂😂 he called his step daughter a liar and she’s like “Do you guys want dressing on your salad???”
