Wow, I could only watch 10 minutes of the first video. Very upsetting to see. I'm glad at least something was done.

These kids are not out of the woods yet. Their biological mother has only gained emergency custody. There will still be a custody battle.

The YouTubers who called attention to the abuse, are the very people responsible for collecting the video evidence to send to law enforcement. They used those videos to rally viewers and other YouTubers for help!

Those videos were the only thing that got the kids out of there. The mother only just gained emergency custody about a week ago. It literally just happened.

Everyone is still in a state of shock, so of course more commentary has been flying around YouTube. The YouTube community are continuing to provide updates on the legal proceedings, which also helps with donations. If someone runs across the story, why would they donate unless they see what happened? The videos serve a purpose that actually helps the kids.

But something I see around are comments that "It isn't like what Jimmy Kimmel does"...I disagree. While the pranks he encourages are must less severe, making a child cry to amuse adults is abuse.

The whole thing makes me mad.
Like I ate all your Halloween candy? I thought that was funny. And sweet. No one let their child get too upset. They gave it up if the child got too upset. (at least the ones I saw).

And the ones that were all it's ok, Mommy just made my heart melt. I probably would have had a tantrum!
