A family has lost custody of two children featured in a series of "prank" videos, which some said actually showed child abuse.

The YouTube account "DaddyOFive" became wildly popular in recent weeks after posting videos where two parents played "pranks" on their children. In particular, they would accuse one child, named Cody, of a range of bad behaviour – and then punished him physically and emotionally for it.

Now Rose Hall, the biological mother of 9-year-old Cody and his sister Emma, says that she has obtained emergency custody of her children.

"They're doing good," Ms Hall says on the video where she appears with her lawyer. "They're getting back to their playful selves."

Ms Hall thanked the YouTube community for raising attention towards the channel.

DaddyOFive's creators, which included Cody's father, claimed that the videos were harmless pranks and that the children didn't mind taking part in them. But a range of prominent YouTubers said that the videos depicted abuse – pointing to videos where the parents scream and swear at the kids, tell them they are going to be adopted and one where Cody's father appears to push him into a bookcase.

The videos gained the channel almost 800,000 subscribers and millions of views, as well as supporters who said they enjoyed the stunts being shown in the video. But they also attracted detractors, including YouTube star Philip DeFranco, who released a video editing some of the more horrifying clips together.

That video was viewed more than three million times and brought widespread condemnation of the DaddyOFive channel.

As well as the apparent developments between the parents of Cody and his sister, the Martin family posted a video on their DaddyOFive channel apologising for what they did, and appeared on US TV. They said that they were unaware of the effect the videos would have on their children and apologised for them getting out of hand.

The rest of the videos have now been removed from the channel and the apology has been viewed almost two million times.

The Martins had initially said that the people who opposed the videos were "haters" and that by criticising the stunts they were in fact upsetting the children more.

japanese zookeepers have been abusing penguins with anime

https://twitter.com/mdgw7/status/858293188955590656

they put an anime in the penguin enclosure, and now one is anti-social and fawns over its 2d-waifu and will no longer socialize with the other penguins

Yet where is that woman now? Tell me, in what heave does she reside? None of them. Because no God bothered to listen or care. If that is what you think it means to be a God, then you and all your teachings are welcome to do as that poor women did. And vanish from these realms forever.

Apparently, it was so bad they had to isolate him because he wasn't properly eating or taking his medication. The penguin is actually very elderly for penguins and, as such, very brittle. Chances are, he's the penguin equivalent to senile and thinks the 2-D picture is a real penguin.

How the gently caress he sees that and thinks "oh, that's a penguin, not a (drawing of) woman pretending to be a penguin", I have no idea.

The zoo did this in a deal to make money from advertisers. They didn't think this would cause any problems. And, frankly, who could have seen this coming?

It's a start, but I feel that as part of a good faith endeavor by Israel and the West, that hamas and the Palestinians deserve to be given additional lands outside of Israel, as European Jews were given land outside of their own direct homelands. Reparations in kind, you see. Maybe we could start by giving them I don't know, Iran. :shrug:
