And when you bend over to give him a hug like a year ago but this time he rebounds and do the fist pump and wispers "Yikes man, what is wrong with you?" that you know he has become a stranger living under your roof. But never fear, I still hold the Wallet, I can't wait when he wants a car and he askes me, "Dad? How about it, I need $8000 for a car" that I go on the attack. "Yes son, No problem, It will only cost you a one hug!" that suddenly he turns into your little boy again! LOL!

I've often thought about that as I've watched this channel over the years. As far as I know, the children were never asked if they wanted their daily lives to be broadcast to the world. They were never asked if they wanted a camera always hovering a few feet away while they went through the ups and downs of their lives. To me, my life is my own, and it's not to be made a consumable product for the rest of the world to view and judge. Maybe his children don't mind now because they don't know any better, but that viewpoint might change as they grow up.

(And all could financially benefit from tech.) And then Art and Bre showed up after Justin's prodding and I fully fell in love with them too. Sadly for them this online community fell in love with them and probably provided too much loving pressure to the point that when it all became too much pressure, it created awful cracks in their marriage and family. I've kept them in my prayers ever since and pray that they find their way through this social media jungle to keep their own family intact without damage from all of us out here.

Also, there are plenty of other commets on this video acknowledging how rude and disrespectful that was for Jonah to speak to his father that way, but I guess everyone else is wrong too huh. 🙄 But I digress.
