Do Youtube parents abuse their kids?

Asked by LadyMarissa (16099points) July 13th, 2018

I’m desperately needing a break from the “T” word!!! When bored, I often go to Youtube, enter a keyword, & then begin to link hop to see where it will take me. I’ve found some strange & interesting videos doing this. The ones that concern me are the ones with small children trusting their parents to take care of them & the parents watch with camera in hand laughing when their child slips on ice hitting their head as they fall…or the ones watching their child flip & fall face first onto the floor from standing in a chair. The list goes on & on about the things parents watch happening to their child as they squeal “I got that on video…guess who is going to be on Youtube” This always leaves me wondering how many of these kids are actually harmed in the making of the video & we just never hear about it. Seeing a child ignored by their parents while unknowingly trusting them to take care of them leaves me feeling sad!!! Any thoughts???
