Hopefully this is the last time we have to talk about this. Love yo faces and have a great Monday! :)
Hopefully
Philip DeFranco ❤️ i hope it is
Philip DeFranco yay
👍
Love you
When daddyO5 said " we are sorry for putting this on the internet".... no the problem isn't you uploading the video, the problem is you abusing your child
"We're sorry we exposed our actions."
Jay basically
it's ridiculous that they find it more important to apologize to complete strangers but not to their own children
+Богдана Жукова No.
Erect Broadcast it implies that that's normal behaviour for them behind closed doors
They issued this apology because they're in the spotlight. Because their lives are being turned upside down. Not because they are sorry.
A K Yup '
A K look at their opinion in 90% of their other videos
A K Their lawyer made them do it. Just look at the title.
Titty Kitty Cookie yep. You bet your ass someone will make an apology if they're at risk of losing their little mini punching bags.
Titty Kitty Cookie speaking from experience. #childofanastydivorce
they're not apologizing out of sincerity, they're apologizing because they got caught. they truly disgust me.
Ruby D yeah
ruby elizabeth same
Yep. It's stupid.
ruby elizabeth agreed. the are apologizing because their yt channel is on the line. most of what they say is edited because they told whoever editing to cut certain things out. I mean personal info is a thing but, when we would like answers they don't have to give us answers but when authorities got involved they had to. for their sake, however they didn't show all of it because it may be that it supports the theory that they are metaly abusing their kids.
Same. I can tell by their body language that they're not truly sorry.
(0:52) What I heard: "I'm sorry I hurt anyone's feelings. But I would've gotten away with it too, if it weren't for that meddling DeFranco guy."
Jeremy why isn't this top comment?
Jeremy Scooby Doo reference huh? :)
yes. :)
yes. :)
yes. :)
"We just wanted our kids to be happy"
*pushes kid into shelf, screams obscenities at their children*
MJ Mickelsen you forgot when he yelled at Cody for self harming 👌
You wanna know how they got these scars?
Just saw on Reddit that they lost custody of two of the kids. www.reddit.com/r/news/comments/68syyv/youtube_star_daddyofive_loses_custody_of_two/?st=J27QXX3M&sh=9d8d7a77
MJ Mickelsen Not all of them? What about the other three?
They are older and there was no documented abuse of Heather's kids like there was of Cody and Emma, so CPS apparently decided not to remove them - though, if you ask me, teaching kids to abuse other kids IS abuse and they should have been removed as well.
Did you notice the decent lighting, background, and the fact they are dressed up/wearing make up this time around for their apology? It seems they are suddenly trying to look presentable which makes me wonder exactly how far the legal issues are going. They are dressed like they are going to court.
Uhm... can we bring in the death penalty for attempting to wear a sweater vest to court?
Brianna Probably posting this bc CPS is going through their life with a goddamn micrpscope.
RacconAndMT Sadly No.
Gta2O13 I dont think the kids are gone there probably staying at a aunts or uncles house atm
No we can't . I m gonna assume you are young enough that you havent taken any world history classes yet to know why this is stupid
An apology fixes nothing. That abuse is going to stay with those kids for the rest of their lives. They have proven themselves untrustworthy members of society and should lose custody of all their children who they obviously cannot properly take care of.
I agree. Too little, too late.
Ah but they're apologetic so it's ok, -_- being sarcastic. Actually heard something similar as well.
Yes very true!
Family counseling will not work for an abusive home because the children will not feel safe to tell the doctors what is happening to them.
"I would've gotten away with it too, if it wasn't for that meddling DeFranco guy"
greenman394 holy shit 😂
Idk why I'm picturing a Scooby Doo villain finally caught saying " I would've gotten if it wasn't for you darn kids! "
harsh kakru Because it was a scooby doo reference
Scooby dooby doo!
Phil pulls the mask off of Do5 and it's the same face but less scruffy, wearing a sweatervest
Voldemort could give a more convincing apology.
Actually it's he who shall not be named
Miss Digitalmoon Oh my you're brave uttering his name in plain light of day
Miss Digitalmoon HAHAHAHAHA!!! oh God
I know right... they are so FAKE...
the mum reminds me of umbridge
"news wouldn't happen without that defranco guy" should be a tee shirt
We need phillip to see this
@Philip Defranco. Come on team, this quote is Gold
*t-shirt
They hired a PR firm. Every bit of that apology is staged and choreographed by a PR professional. It was then overseen by a lawyer and edited for content. It's NOT "them".
The Oxford story is BS. I've got 2 degrees and an expertise in nonverbal communication to back up my professional opinion. People that have no clue shouldn't make statements like that with the University's name attached. There's NOTHING absolutely NOTHING to support their claim. Ridiculous.
"Mike, put on a vest and glasses, it'll help your 70 IQ points do their best job"
Even those pathetic 'outfits' they dressed up in... 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
Those parents don't need to issue an apology to the public, they need to issue a GENUINE apology to their children, especially poor Cody.
Word!
they probably wouldn't. they're just asshole people
For some reason I think poor Cody is going to get it harder than before. Making that unfortunate kid responsible for "destroying their business" is not out the question from these horrible people.
That is a very good point. A lot of abusive people don't admit the crime. They will lie through their teeth to look good but if it's not to the kids, you know they're not sorry and being sorry still won't erase habits, behavior and mental issues the parents may currently have. It's easy to say "sorry, my bad" pretend to be good for a month until things die down and then repeat the habits over again even if it's not on camera. I can only image what they do off camera if camera is the censored version.
no, the parents need to get their asses beat.
I'm sure they'll never do such horrible things to their kids again...
On camera.
NeuroHazard I'm sure everything they did wasliterally just for the camera. I actually doubt they do that any other time. they are shit parents, but I honestly don't believe they do that off camera.
Kotala No Name then how did Cody get so many bruises all over his arms, that didn't all happen on camera
Kotala No Name They say that what you see on camera is an elevated version of their personalities. So off cam they don't scream too much and hit the kids too hard- they just simply scream and hit the kids in a non exaggerated way. Just like normal abuse and not over the top abuse. Right?
Some people know it's wrong to hit your kids, others think it's normal.
Good, good for the kids👍 now they might not grow up as punks
As someone who grew up in an abusive home (my dad and step mom are A LOT like this couple, but no social media at the time) I thank you for bringing attention to this. Thank you on behalf of all of us. I hope these kids can grow from this and see that this isn't how life or families should be.
Ashley Girl 💛💛 I hope you're in a better place
Ashley Girl I’m sorry you went through a similar situation
Ashley I went through the same thing. It was terrible. But its still awesome that these kids are in a better place
Parents like that have a special place in hell for them
I don't believe a word of their 'apology'. They lost custody of Cody and Emma, I'm so thankful they are now safe and happy with their mother and are able to have a normal childhood. Those other children should be taken away too, the fact is that life in that house is dangerous. Thank you Philip for bringing this issue to light, you were desperately needed!
The older brother can stay for a little bit longer because he’s a bitch
This whole family seems like a bad remake of the movie "Matilda" if you've watched the film you know that the family inflicts emotional abuse onto Matilda because she shows potential and makes the rest feel insecure because of her love for books and education. Cody is clearly an outlier in this family, not just because he speaks in complete sentences but because he seems to have developed a moral compass on his own where he can judge clear differences between right and wrong, as a result of his self awareness his family punishes him, all in the name of ad dollars. Repugnant!
Annie Andrews miss honey is philip defranco
Claire Knight or Harry Potter having to live under the staircase and be mistreated because in this case these are his step siblings and really the daughter and Cody get the worst out of them all.
Claire Knight So true
"That Defranco guy" can I get that on a t-shirt? 😂
Alex In Wonderland that would be hilarious
Alex In Wonderland Yas plz
PLEASE YES-
*Difranco
the dude spells it wrong on Twitter all the time
Alex In Wonderland Pleeeeeeaaaaase
I've only watched Philip from these videos with DO5, and honestly I think that DeFranco is just a genuinely sweet person. Will be watching more from you!
Honey Parker I know it’s been a year haha but I hope you’re still a member of the Nation and enjoying your stay!
I came here from daz lol
@@dogpolice I was just about to say that 😂🙏🏽
"We just wanted our kids to be happy" so how the Fuck does video taping you putting the kids into such a distressed state lead to happiness? That sentence makes no sense at all. (The Mom said it around 3:32)
I feel like a part of her meant her kids, not the step-kids.
They lost custody of Cody and Emma!!
thank god!!!
vonmahs324
i hope their mother is a better parent.
vonmahs324 FINALLY.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Paikea Apirana I've had an aunt who was a step mother of one of my cousins. And she hit him, screamed at him, and everything an abuser would do to their child. And you want to know what happened? He became an animal abuser. He pulled dogs, threw them, even hit them. It's really a reflection of what their parents had done to them and now he's like that.
lmao "I would've got away if it wasn't for you meddling DeFranco & your subscribers too!"
Adriana Valadez nice repost
Lmao dude gtfo Bob
sorry i ruined your perfect 420 likes with my upvote
Lmao.
Also, 900th upvote ;)
Adriana Valadez yes 😂😂😊
And during the interview they say that most of the stuff that they do ate scripted. So you mean to tell me that Cody crying his eyes out and pleading to be left alone was scripted? That kid is a hell of an actor and deserves an Oscar then
I hope that was sarcasm.
Please be Sarcastic
11:33 I look up to that dude: getting into something purely because he was worried about the well-being of someone else, trying to stick up for someone who isn't capable of doing it for themself. That's real courage. We need more people like this man
Noah The Dragonborn same here even if he was a little extreme
sam petty have to be extrame sometimes
yes agreed!
I died laughing when the male attendant tried puffing himself up to look more intimidating and the guy just towered over him like "try me, I dare you" and the male attendant faltered . But on the real yeah more people should get involved especially if it's blantanly wrong.
sounds a bit like a court ordered apology :)
I was going to post about this too! It almost seems like a CPS "recommendation" type thing, even their clothing doesn't seem like their personalities in the other video clips!
Agree. The judge probably said something like "if I see even one more video with this kind of deliberate child abuse your parental rights will be terminated and you will no longer be able to see your children. They will put into foster care until they can be adopted."
Alyssa Rowe she's had her hair done! What's with her stupid frozen face of shock?
Alyssa Rowe It's actually a result, apparently, of a PR group they hired(Fallston Group?). I have never seen two people look more Sunday School than in this "apology". Of course, I don't believe a single word of it. If they could have, they might very well have continued abusing/"pranking" their kids on UA-cam until something truly tragic happens.
Hopefully, with a LOT of LOVE and VERY INTENSIVE COUNSELING, the children removed will forget these two people (I can't use the word "parent" because they don't deserve it) and will grow up to be happy and well-adjusted.
#Daddyofivecansuckit
Alyssa Rowe and court ordered therapy. That's always one of the first stipulations from CPS.
You can tell hes not upset because of what he did. he is upset because he got caught. As for her, shes just a monster.
SickSadWhirled Meaning those psycho parents eh?
definitely the evil stepmother
Austun Lucero lil boy, nobody cares. ugly and proud.
SickSadWhirled bruh you still watch fucking spongbob.im gonna go kms
what's an "ugly" ?
I love the soft parent clothes they were wearing in the "apology" vid, prob just another thing to make them look like they're genuinely ashamed bcos who actually wears vests or green eyeshadow
"they're just jealous" no thanks. I live in a loving family and i would rather be happy with my life and not be "famous" than living with my brothers and sister crying and screaming everyday for youtube fame.
THE REAL MOM HAS CUSTODY OF THEM NOW!!!!
I'm curious why the biological mother didn't have them to start with. Are there issues there too?
She did up until I think maybe two years ago, Cody has ODD and she has Bipolar disorder, Mike was never in his life and she was trying to give him one last chance to be a dad, and so she sent him to visit and he never came back, and they got emma as well by using her mental illness against her, forging papers ect.. I believe they had a lawyer and won custody, because she couldn't afford it. Its a huge thing
It was that and also the judge had some vendetta against women apparently when the custody battle was first brought to court so he was like "You would probs be the better choice but I hate women so dad gets the custody"
women get majority wins of getting the children judy..... the judge wasnt sexist.
+Paikea Apirana, Here are some of the news stories on it;
www.bbc.com/news/technology-39783670
www.torontosun.com/2017/05/03/youtube-parents-who-pranked-kids-on-camera-lose-custody-of-two
As a victim of abuse myself I have trouble seeing their apology as genuine. I give them the benefit of the doubt and hope CP's investigates fully and the children have the best outcome.
Britter's Productions that and I hope do5 becomes cellmates with the bootywarrior
silentblast I like ya and I want ya
I'm also a victim of "physical" and verbal abuse. Though my parents had changed (for the better I guess???) but I felt more isolated whenever I'm talking in public and has an instance to ignore away people that felt like hurting their feelings because they're genuinely would like to know me more which in other words, I would prefer to be alone.
As for the DaddyOFive parents, I am not convinced on their own apology and statements. Though I too would give them the benefit of the doubt and will be praying for their children's health and emotions. If everything all went true, then the DaddyOFive parents are deserving to be punished.
Totally agreed. That abuse causes deep wounds that will affect a kid for life. If the abuse is true and it appears to be then they need to be punished and the kids need to be given loving care. I pray that this situation works out in the way that is best for the kids.
Philip keeps me hope in humanity every time I watch him.
He also keeps me awake at 3:am
Carly's Cubs same
@@livelongandprosper70 I'm sorry what
I can understand not believing the apology. Psychopathic abusers are Real good at crying and making apologies.
Also the thought crime thing is such B.S. eye contact is cultural.
I bet when they get home they still blame their kids for screwing up their youtube moneypot,
true
bet
kentan00 Absolutely
Cody probably catching all types of hell off camera.
James Muller and James Taylor a lot of James' wanting to give gift cards
The best public apology starter kit:
"I'm sorry I got caught."
"It was just a prank bro"
Que the fake tears 😭
Daphne Rose I bet she actually searched acting tips on how to cry on cue for that vid
Obviously she wasn't just crying because she could fake it, she lost her meal tickets !!!
Shane OConnor
Good thing I don't watch tv. These assholes don't deserve a minute more of air time!!!!
What in the actual fuck, these people are probably gonna become millionaires like the "cash me ousside" girl. They don't deserve this attention, they obviously abuse their kids...
It's spelled "cue"
Lambert Lim
*i know what you mean but I must correct you anyway*
You "grammar nazis are lame, lmfao.
did she draw her eyebrow to make herself look sad or she just looks like that.
Lmao. Dude, it isn't just the smallest child that was affected, although he did get a huge brunt of the abuse and will probably feel the effects of all this most.
It has BECOME the norm for the others involved. They'll move on, bullying peers, and hopefully they will become aware that parenting like this isn't alright. Because most people who are in that position don't realize that, then become parents just the same as theirs, abusing their kids. So it legitimately will fuck up ALL the kids involved, in some form or another throughout life.
An0n
That's not funny
yes but there is some hope for them. if they realize that this is wrong, then they can learn from it. They will see the pain of abuse. They won't do it. Kinda like my parents, they tell me they weren't abused, but didn't have the best guides. Yet they grew up to be amazing parents! everyday I wake up a a family. No abuse or anything! Heck, they talk to us and of something they are doing is making up upset to a extream level, they will emedietly try to get rid of that thing. They want us to grow up comfy and I believe that the kids in this family can grow up to be wonderful!
It feels like they are sad that they got exposed instead of being sorry for what happened
I agree. They are so ready to blame everyone else but themselves.
Moistydikdik of DikDik Tribe it takes exposure to bring awareness to the truth. perhaps they're genuine in their response. it is clear to me though, regardless, that there are relationship problems between the two parents which are projecting onto their kids. it's all cause an effect. abuse leads to abuse unless self awareness is created.
perhaps this was the perfect kick in the ass for these two to snap them back to reality
Moistydikdik of DikDik Tribe you hit the nail right on the head!
If CPS really is investigating them, then it looks like that video is straight damage control instead of being sincere.
Moistydikdik of DikDik Tribe My thoughts exactly. I think they're sorry they got called out, not over what they did. That being said, I don't think they really understood, or understand still, the full gravity of what they've been doing to their kids. And that is what makes me really sad.
Apology="please dont take our income away"
I hope they lose it all
^^^
The kids should get all of the money except for the oldest brother
I think I speak for the majority of people when I say THANK YOU for blowing this up the way you did. It was through your effort along with others around the world that Emma and Cody were taken away from those awful parents. Lets hope that the biological mother can be granted full custody once the emergency custody period is over.
You helped do a great thing that will hopefully have a wonderful impact on these children's lives. I applaud you.
#ThatDefrancoGuy
It's probably just their attorney talking
Obviously +
yep there second apology is about as real as theyre gonna get with an apology and it basically boils down to "we're sorry we got caught"
Akaryusan
Yes, that's exactly right. Sorry they got caught. Parents like that don't change.
His attorney must be a great editor.
Akaryusan: It's more like "We're sorry we were stupid enough to upload incriminating evidence to UA-cam." Of course they were going to get "caught". There was never any question about that. They uploaded videos of child abuse to youtube for the world to see. It was only a matter of time before it bit them in the ass.
They're not sorry for abusing their kids, they're just apologizing for sharing it with us.
These people need to be sterilized and removed from their children.
Brad Scott they are sorry they got backlash.
I worry for Cody in particular.
True.. I really think they will need a professional to keep a helicopter view over them for years to make sure they stop abusing their kids and takes care of them...
Richard Shiflett Daddyofive lost custody of both cody and emma. Both children are with their birth mother at the moment. Lets only hope that the other kids get out of there as well.
Juliette Moon I think the step mother and wife of daddyofive was instigating all of this. The way she talked about her step kids was sickening and the way they made her kids bully her step kids was sickening. Now I think the other kids are safe with them, or at least I hope so because if those kids have no one to depend on other than their parents they will be thrown to the system and that will be worst than anything.
Brad Scott that's what I was thinking. It's like: I apologize for letting my abusive tendencies get on the internet. I should have kept that private.
They weren't sorry until they got criticized and the money stopped coming in! Idiots got what they deserved that poor boy had to live his life wondering everyday what dumb "prank" or type of bullying he had to endure that day.
According to Oxford, my social anxiety is racism and should give me even more social anxiety.
How to publicly apologize:
1. Wear sweater vest
2. .....................
3. Profit
Jack Miller it's like Dapper Laughs and his turtleneck all over again.
Hahahaha I'm kinda glad he came back though.
Not these cunts
that oxford announcement was complete bullshit, honestly. :/ i avoid eye contact due to social anxiety issues--absolutely nothing about race involved. do it until i am comfortable with a person, and even then i avoid eye contact just because it makes me feel awkward that they think i have some uber weird focus issues or such.
vampirebatlord4ever you're not alone . I don't like to stare at people's eyes for a long times because one I think it's rude 2 is because I don't know how long to stare at someone's eyes haha . I just look for like 3 seconds then look away for a bit and proceed to look again haha. In Eastern countries people think it's rude if you stare at their eyes for a long time where in the Western countries if you don't stare at someone's eyes people think you're not interested or lying lol that's is complete bullshit. I belong in the Eastern countries .
vampirebatlord4ever It is absolutely bullshit I agree. I also avoid eye contact because I have severe social anxiety. I won't look my friends in the eyes or my family. I get mad when people stare at me for longer than a few seconds because I can't stand being looked at because all I can think about is what they're thinking about while looking..
vampirebatlord4ever I have two sons on the autism spectrum who avoid eye contact at times and I may too due to anxiety. It has nothing to do with race. In fact it's a survival mechanism in NYC. Where is common sense?
What a bunch of weirdos! I always stare directly and deeply into a person's eyes. Unblinking. Loving.
It's totally not creepy.
Trust me...
vampirebatlord4ever I avoid eye contact for the same reason. not becuase of anxiety but becuase of autisum. it feels very weird to give eye contact and it helps me focus more for some reason if I talk to them with out looking at them
I can not watch these abuses ... God protect these children!
Ellen Vendruscolo God and Philip Difranco
They are disgusting like they legit abuse their kids for views and money and then act like it's all a joke but it's still promoting abuse mentally and physically. It literally makes me sick to the core that they even thought acting like this is okay. Some people really confuse me man.
"That is the most ridiculous, snowflakey bullshit I've ever heard. "
-Philip DeFranco, 2017
Nathan Flannery yes, fuck the SJW PC agenda!
Just remember that looking at them can be construed as racist because they might think you are staring because they look different.
And that is why this a load of bullshit from Oxford.
If you don't want to be racist stare at minorities.
Haha!!! I agree... Ffs... Sometimes I just don't feel like talking to ANYONE, and just trying to be polite by talking to the person at all, and I just really want to Gooooooo... No matter who you are or where ur from! Ughhh...
this "apology" is so fake, they just apologize now because they realized that their you tube channel is in danger.
And Heather's ex is trying to get custody of her son's so she's doing damage control.
Lisa Monster I just find this really scummy to do to your kids... you are supposed to care of your kids and nurture them, not Harass as well as physically and emotionally bully them.
mathew peter in danger? that shit is dead 😂😂
B-b-but the sweater vest!
mathew peter I don't believe any of that
I don't think they fully know what they have done
I don't believe them!! They enjoyed what they did to those kids! They aren't sorry for anything except showing the world how abusive they are!! They shouldn't be allowed to raise a dog, much less 5 kids!!
They had a dog AND five kids!!
How
I think its disgusting that these people refer to themselves as "parents". She is not a mother and he is not a father. He may be the children's biological father but he is FAR from a loving caring father. Those two are perfect for each other. I only hope that they do not have any more children. As my mother has always said, they make you get a licence to drive and boat or a car but there is no licence or approval for having children. Despite driving and having children is holding others lives in your hands. Obviously drivers have more rights than children. Its evident in his videos that he treats his children like property. It must make the hearts of people who cant have children, but really want them, bleed when they see such a precious gift treated that way.
We are so so sorry that people called us on our shit. Our lawyer told us to make this video but we had to edit it to death because we couldn't help but incriminate ourselves every couple seconds. Boo boo.
Chris Shawn 2 seconds into it, I thought the same thing.
Imagine the "invisible ink prank" where the kid just says "I didn't do it, this is one of your stupid pranks, isn't it?"
It would be boring and nobody would care. They absolutely wanted their kid to cry and defend himself.
I think that is why they singled out their youngest, because he was more inclined to react, to scream and cry. They tortured that kid for UA-cam views
Thanks for your mature and sensitive input Philip into this whole DO5 situation. As a father of kids myself I realize that no parent is 100% perfect, however after only a few short moments of watching the videos this family was posting online it didn't take long at all for me to decide that something was definitely wrong in that household.
It's almost like they had someone else proof, and edit their apology video.
Maybe a lawyer
Braxx I was thinking the same.
Braxx That's what it seemed like. They probably did not edit this themselves.
Yea. have you seen the description? super organized, neat, and has correct punctuation use.
I was thinking the same thing - from the outfits to the edits to the change in tone, it looks like they are doing as instructed from a lawyer.
Kyle: That isn't it, Cartman.
Cartman: What isn't it?
Kyle: That isn't being nice. That's just wearing a nice sweater.
Cartman: I don't understand the difference.
Kyle: I know you don't.
albert276 Most suited reference ever
😂
It's confirmed: the trash parents are trying to raise money to go to Casa Bonita through their child abuse videos.
It's sad how fitting that is.
albert276 you win the Internet!
Heather: I realize now that he have made some really bad parenting desicions
Me: The only bad parenting desicion you two have made is becoming parents in the first place
Bringing attention to this families behavior was the best thing you could do for these kids! I too was emotionally abused by a parent who thought that hurtful reading was funny. I saw right away that these types of pranks were clearly emotional abuse. I wish someone would have done something to stop the person who did it to me. What is sad is that these parents may never learn. The person who was that way to me as a child still thinks that certain teasing and jokes that hurt are still funny. Fortunately I am an adult now and can just ignore it and don't have to live it day to day. And I have realized that something is really wrong with the person who still acts that way towards me. Thank you for sticking up for a child that had no way to stop this. He may thank you some day!
I feel like they were talking in front of a lawyer. That was a fake ass apology !
They are, its a damage control councelor (Thats not the proper name but you get the idea)
missplasticpony and they're wearing costumes.
How do you know its fake lol.What if it's legit apology.
Alana Jones I never said its real.I only said what if it's a legit apology.I did not say that It is real apology
You seriously think that was fake? They're both clearly in emotional distress due to the fact that they might lose their beloved children. I guarantee they regret the things they did. Not saying this makes everything okay though.
The mum is the worst actress ever, can see straight through the facade
Jack Alton right!!!
She should take lessons from the greatest actor of our generation, Cody. After all he "played" the role of an emotionally abused child extremely convincingly.
worst fake crying ive ever seen
people are already posting on reddit about the lady's behavior before the video. It says that people we calling out that the parent was the one that escalated the issue, and the stroller hit by those who saw is that she forced the event into an infomercial style accident...
I appreciate you Philip DeFranco. So many times people overlook this because it's "none of their business" and sometimes the parents don't see it as abuse. People often think abuse is just beating and bruising but it's not. Emotional and Psychological abuse lasts much longer than physical abuse, I know first hand. I just heard of this story today and I have watched at least 5 videos from you about it. These videos horrified me and they broke my heart. Those poor kids. But I saw it in a news article that stated the two children abused the most, Cody & his sister, were removed and placed with their mother. It is not okay to teach your kids to hit and abuse each other. Their apology in this video was scripted and did not seems sincere. I think they are sorry that they got in trouble, but not sorry that they did it. I will be subscribing to your channel now. Honestly though, they need major counseling (parents and kids) to overcome this. The other children don't even realize it was abuse. They have been taught to abuse. I wouldn't be surprised if Cody does have PTSD. Those poor babies.
i'm going to be 100% honest. I was a Do5 fan, and I never noticed the abuse. I only saw the video for comedy. But after watching your videos on the subject and a video by trendcrave, i realize my poor life decision. I thank you, Philip.
I think it's total damage control. Their initial reactions were too real compared to this one. As a child of abuse, the deflection of responsibility from the parents is so typical. Then this last apology is too structured and seems very fake, definitely damage control.
I agree - it's so obviously fake. Your first reaction is always your true reaction, so to come out trying to sound all apologetic now does not ring with sincerity...
It is very likely that this is damage control, but maybe we should give them the benefit of the doubt. At least for now before they fuck up again
ASMR Victoria not to mention the fact that despite the dad being the main perpetrator, it's the mother doing all the talking and apologizing, indicating that he's not even willing to provide an in depth apology himself.
The "if I didn't know these people" part of the apology is the two totally ducking any responsibility for their actions. It's disgusting.
are u single
Bob Ross: Flight Attendants aren't violent, they just make happy little accidents.
I fucking love you
I read what you did there....very clever..lol
I was going to make a Bob Ross joke, but this yours was soooooooooooo much better
Thank you!
Joe Swanson My reaction when I heard the name 'Bob Ross' in the video was 'wait... Bob Ross!?! Holy shit I have to see the comments!'
They are sad and worried because they are losing their cash cows, not because they are losing their kids.
why is this being recommended to me 4 years later
"We're not going to do anything like this again"
Translation: We're not going to upload videos of abusing our kids anymore.
"And we are definitely going to ask a friend to record us talking and cut out all the parts where we slip and say we still hate Cody. Oh, not that either? Just take it out later."
The moment that flight attendant said "come on, hit me!" he crossed waaaay over the line on camera, regardless of the original situation.
He purposefully tried to goad an American Airlines customer to break the law on an airplane. There is NO WAY that would be okay to any employer. Air travel is a sensitive environment these days; you can't have someone that volatile working a flight.
Yea look at his eyes, its the eyes of a man that does not give a shit anymore. He already is probably going to get fired anyways and someone has threatened him. He is at the fuck it stage. Even the most even keel with snap under the perfect storm.
that dude would have stared down a barrel of a gun without flinching. looked like he had nothing to lose.
He definitely didn't handle the situation properly but if someone much bigger than me threatened to deck me, I wouldn't feel safe on that flight. The man who stood up should have been kicked off the flight for making a threat like that. I'm amazed he wasn't.
I don't want to cast aspersions on to the flight crew from allegations. We don't actually know what happened before the camera turned on regardless of what someone claims so it's important to maintain the idea that someone is innocent until proven guilty.
Agent Smith I agree with you for the most part, we have no idea whether the allegations made in the first place are true and it's natural to feel threatened in that situation. My issue is that _regardless_ of that, he invited the man to hit him. That's anything from totally ass-backwards in the best case scenario, to a deliberate attempt to get the guy to commit a crime on an airplane.
He works for an airline, and I find it very hard to believe that they do not receive training on how to handle a belligerent customer. That behaviour was wildly inappropriate and short of some seriously mitigating circumstances coming out, I don't think he should be working as a flight attendant right now.
No, he shouldn't be and will probably be fired or moved to a different position after this.
Today in "why is this in my recommended" we have a 3-year-old Philly D video. Huh.
Sorry my ass
Enough said
The only videos that they make fake, is there apology one
Abigail Williams lol
How do you not know how to properly use the different “theirs.”
That video was definitely damage control. I worry for those children. If everything was "scripted" then why does it seem like their apology was edited and all over the place? They should have plenty of experience with scripting and the one time they could have actually used a script to make things seem more sincere, it was horribly choppy. I got the vibe their lawyer was on the other side of the camera coaching them...
Hope Alicia apparently they've lost custody of both of the dad's kids now
I have been through an emotionally abusive situation with my own father. I've watched my father put my brother in choke holds, accusing him of ridiculous things like hiding the TV remote, screaming at us at least once a day, telling us constantly to be deadly silent, threatening to "rip off [our] limbs and beat [us] half to death with them." My father was controlling over my mother, not letting her do things or control the money even she earned, hiding what he was doing with the funds. He gaslighted everyone, accusing our memories to be false. For years of my life, I did wet the bed basically every single night. My nightmares were either my father was murdering me, or my father was being murdered. The conflicted emotions made even more confusing the few days he emerged from his room with a smile and hug waiting for me. It was torture, and it scars me still today, even after over 8 years of not living with him. My mom's best friend had an abusive father and was terrified that my father would actually kill my brother when he stayed with my father for 2 months. Two years ago, I finally confronted my father visiting him at the end of the week I was there (in the time he had also managed to threaten to break off my fingers) and he cried and apologized... only to turn around and blame it on another tragedy. Abusers do not want to acknowledge what they have done. They think they're different, they couldn't have done this. I have a feeling that they will end up back-peddaling, just as my father has. This all had hurt me to watch, but as Boogie said, I hope that these children can get the help I never got.
We all know that when most public figures apologize for doing something wrong they aren't sorry for what they did, they are sorry they got caught and the gravy train is coming to an end. these people exploit their kids, and they aren't sorry, they just wish they didn't get caught doing it so they could keep getting the cash.
I fear most for Cody, many abusive parents pick one kid to pour most of the abuse on. I hope I am wrong.
I honestly feel like that's why they weren't gonna let him go on the trip to Disney world or wherever they were gonna go last week. After all the negative attention they decided to pick on the little one & decided not to let him go on the trip. I could be wrong & I hope I'm wrong but it sure does seem like they pick on him the most.
abilenevespa same here, it's pretty obvious that he's the one who they intentionally pick on the most. that kid will have psychological damage for years to come
Guess i was that kid then.
problem now is that the mum and dad definitely seems like the kind that would blame cody for their loss in fame and everything. he'll probably be treated worse now. just off camera
abilenevespa It's called a 'scapegoat'. Really, look it up.
They dressed like they're two 10 year olds ready for Sunday School
Otiss I must say the father looked pretty decent, the mother however... I agree. At least on the make up, looks like she's 12 and just found her mum's makeup and decided to play with it.
Otiss it tells me that some very serious legal trouble has popped up. No one dresses up like that unless they are being watched by CPS or FBI or something.
Otiss yesss oh my god I thought the same thing. The dad looks like he thought "how do you dress like an adult? Oh I know! My Easter Sunday outfit from when I was kid!... Damn that probably doesn't fit, I'll just the same outfit but bigger!" Also what's with his perpetual "trying to shit" face?
thank you for covering this and posting it!!! yet again you prove what the media should be like and not how they are. great job.
Seeing this video 4 years after, makes one think: between the Avatar movies that never were and what constitutes a micro aggression, man, things have surely changed... and I’m not sure it was all for the best. And I'm not even going to add the aggression on planes. That is another ball of crap entirely! 2022, here we go!
It is amazing what a "parent" can learn in just a week... After getting caught...
As someone that has been abused as a child and had to talk to people from CPS multiple times, I don't believe the apology. It unfortunately looks like a classic "Oh shit we got caught so now we have to pretend to take responsibility for our actions." I would like to hope this isn't the case, but having lived it and witnessed it, I highly doubt it.
TheSgp1987 These fuckstains will never stop unless their kids are taken from them. They'll lie and lie but the truth is the only thing they will ever be sorry for is that they got caught.
The only way they could take responsibility for what they did; is jail time.
Felt like they were reading a script to me. I thought i saw somewhere that they hired a PR company which would explain that.
Drachen596 It seemed like the mother was reading cue cards. The fades in and out certainly don't do them any favors either.
HARDCOREMANEX Yup. Unfortunately it happens to a lot of children, every single day. You'd think, though, that at some point maybe a school counselor would have noticed a change in the children's behavior, or a teacher. That, by law, is an automatic call to CPS.
They're sorry they got caught. They don't think they actually abused their children
This shows up on my recommendation 4 years later
Crocodile Tears comes to mind.
If the videos were not made, did the abuse still happen?
Andy Edwards people have been doing it wrong all these years.... it's okay to abuse your kids just make sure you film it and post it online first
wow... that was sarcasm... my autism has been cured
Andy Edwards were r you from..shit thats racisy
you bet will keep happening, now off camera
That video was pure damage control.
I looks like it finally clicked in their heads that they might lose more than just some "jealous haters", they could permanently lose their children and potentially face jail time. The reality of it came knocking at their door.
Brian Ashlocke yeah
Yeah the editing also reinforces that theory, as it was obviously edited by someone else in order to make it seem more geniune and sympathetic, most likely their lawyer or what have you.
I think it's both a genuine apology and damage control. I think they've clued into what they're doing to their kids, and they've realized just how serious this situation is, and have decided to be very careful with their apology. I imagine they also want the public to stop doing to them what they've been doing to their kids.
They said that they just want their kids to be happy, pushing a child into a bookshelf isn't gonna make them HAPPY
as Captain Jack Sparrow said: "...you can always trust a dishonest man to be dishonest. Honestly...."
Sounds like someone talked to a lawyer or got a PR rep.
Bridgett Beardsley exactly what i was thinking the cuts make sense too
And the clothes seems too put together compared to the last time where the guy was just wearing a TShirt. She even did her hair
That's 100% what this is. Staged and scripted. Pair of disgusting, stupid creatures. Should be sterilised
redblackshirt - he is dressed like how a kid thinks adults dress. Short sleeve button-up w/ sweater vest (indoors? Huh).. And decided to keep his earrings in bc he's still an individual.
J.Mills - that was so funny haha
Wtf is up with the father wearing glasses and a sweater vest? I've never once seen him wear anything close to those things in any of his videos. Nerd Defense?
cooldude56g trying to make himself look more professional, and what people would imagine a dad to look like.
He looks like a fat ventriloquist dummy.
cooldude56g im 90% sure I've seen him wear it before also in my changing opinion I now think the dad has add or some sort of social disorder that's why he acts so pissed off in some videos but remorseful and quiet in others. its just weird. the mom is a conniving asshole who is very insencere.
It kind of looked like the got a PR consultant or something. Wear "professional" clothes, say these things, look as sad as possible, etc. It's definitely different from anything they've put forward before, I just hope for the sake of those kids at least some of what they said was genuine.
Lmao XD welp your comment is definitely the best here bro! High five! 🤘🏻
This just popped up today for me to watch. I thought it was a new update years later 🤣
I love you and I deeply admire you I’ve been binging all of your videos since this morning and now it’s 3:00 pm here and I’d just like to say I really appreciate you educating people without a biased opinion on whatever topic, thank you.
I feel that if you are the reason this got so much attention and scrutiny then THANK YOU. I saw multi-layered abuse. No question. I hope for the best for those children.
Carolyn Stone forgive me as I don't follow their channel, but from the clips I've seen you could EASILY fake all of those, how is it 'no question'?
Eathan Markson Easily faked? oh hell no. Nope. I don't believe for an instance that any was faked. Are you doing PR for those cretins? I've had plenty of exposure to children and growing up near and around "parents" like that to know it could NOT be easily faked.
Eathan Markson have you ever seen a child actor cry or scream in despair like Cody did? Easily faked? I was a victim of abuse and the fact is, kids don't have the emotional range or skill to fake something like that. I don't even understand why you would think or say something like that. Unreal.
Exactly.
I deeply hope the kids don't get treated like pets anymore.
Cody reminds me of me tbh, hurts me as the same things actually happened to me as a child
Acii not even pets get treated like that
Acii who the hell treats their pets like that? pets, kids, mothers with babies trying to get on planes. this world is filled with so much abuse these days, it's so frustrating
metromborg it's fucked up
I'm so sorry man hope your doing better now a days.
UA-cam, why are you recommending me this from 3 years ago? Enough already.
It’s august 2021! Why did I get this in my suggestions? I thought it’s the new episode.
They clearly have received legal advice and are in damage control mode. It's not sincere. It's not heartfelt. It's nothing but pure self-preservation at this point.
You're probably right, but Phil is beating this story to death for the views at this point..lol
ValidVikes the mass media have picked up on it (a week late) and these clowns have personally addressed Phil. I think he is justified in covering the story to its conclusion as he sees it. You're free to be cynical, though. I disagree.
I'd say Phil is just updating his audience on the latest of the story he broke.
and another pointless update on this screwed up family. what did i tell you peeps.
ValidVikes what does another video prove?
Those parents should not be allowed near any child. What awful people. They are insincere. Typical only sorry they got caught and called on it. Pigs.
Cvez C don't call them pigs- pigs are cool animals
You are absolutely right, pigs take much better care of their off-spring and these people are plain and simple SH_T. I hope they end up in jail for child abuse and get a lot of counseling as these people are really sick to abuse a child. I hope they never are allowed to interface with any child and both are forced to be sterilized, and as for the kids, they need counseling as well and taken as far away from those monstors. Just so sad that a human could do these things to their own children, just plain sick.
Cvez C if I see a video of Cody Jake Alex And Emma it better be there real mom in it
So what do you guys think should happen to the kids? That's what no one ever addresses...
I know of worse cases where Maryland CPS left children in an abusive situation. Please bring light to the fact that if the public does not persist and put the pressure on Maryland and the judicial system there these children will not be okay. Not just Emma and Cody but the others as well. There is a serious flaw within the system there when it comes to children.
