[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anyone watch these videos? They are strangely entertaining and I do not know why.... I am wayyyy out of their target demographic. [/quote] I do, because my DD does, but it makes me so uncomfortable. These kids eat a TON of junk food. To the point that almost nothing they eat is healthy. It horrifies me to watch them eat. I also wonder why does the youngest daughter have no friends? The older girl has a nice little group of girls, but the younger daughter only hangs around her older sister's friends. Where are her own friends, who are her age? I also can't figure out if the dad works or not - if Youtube is his "job." It drives me NUTS that they can't start any segment of their videos without the verbal crutch "Sooooo....." [b]Lastly, calling the parents Mr. Billy, Miss Jill, etc., [/b]makes me uncomfortable, but I'm sure it's just a north/south thing. [/quote] Do the children call their own parents "Mr. Billy and Miss Jill?" Or do they call their friends parents "Mr. Billy and Miss Jill?" I don't know any kid, northern or southern, who refers to their parents by anything other than mom/dad (or similar terms) as a child. I know some self-centered adults who call their parents by their first names. (From what I've observed, I don't think the parents really like it.) I know one set of kids who call their grandparents by their first names, which is really odd. But the kids refer to their parents as the "traditional" terms of mom & dad. When my kids were young (pre-school aged), they called family friends "Mr. Bill, Miss Jill", etc. Now they are a bit older, they are either still saying "Mr. Bill and Miss Jill" or simply "Mr. Smith and Mrs. Jones." [/quote] No, they call their own parents Mommy and Daddy, but they call the older girl's best friend's parents Miss Jill and Mr. First Name. Again, it's probably just because I'm from the North that I find it weird. I know that's popular in the South. [/quote]
