About My Marriage... 

Let’s be real here, anyone dumb enough to mess with the King and Commander in Chief of the Demolitia really must have a death wish. And not just because Matt probably carries actual artillery but he legit has an army of like minded people behind him.

As a Grandpa of 12 granddaughters I FULLY understand this - touch my granddaughters, and I will do bad things!!!!!

I second this. I have only one child.. a daughter. I have another youtube channel with 7k subs. Not a lot i know.. but same sentiment. I don't put my daughter in my videos. Too many creeps out there.

Same here. I have two little girls. I would do the same.

I'm a father of two beautiful daughters and two teenage granddaughters that are just as beautiful as their momma. They are the main reason I carry a gun everywhere I go!

if only sons had the same protection. she gonna get railed by cool guys like me and theres nothing daddy can do about it

I knew in that moment he's a FANTASTIC father. What an absolute king.

This👏

And before that it was fine? Doing it right is the way Kenji Lopez Alt does - not showing kids at ALL.

Yeah, it was expected. Mere was going to find out how much those guns cost one day.

you talk about it like no one does this, there's lots of youtubers that avoid putting their kids faces on the internet

The best way to acknowledge it is by not making it all. The world doesnt want to see your kids.

@@lukro. Oh come on. Just let someone make a complimentary comment.

Actually ​@Dillon6479 there are creeps all over who take photos they find online and do things with them.... then sell them on the dark web.

Holy shit, was that a real, not a joke or meme, "damn right brother"? 😂😂 people like you really do exist? I love it lol

@@Jeffrey_Tyler some of us, that really do exist, consider ALL of God's children our Brothers or Sisters. Glad you "Love it". Have a Blessed Day Today and Everyday Brother. 😁😁😁

The old joke was the dad having a talk with the boy about getting his daughter back to the house by 10 pm while simultaneously cleaning his shotgun. All Matt would have to do is link his main youtube channel and say "I trust we have an understanding."

​@Urziel99 what?

​@@Urziel99This is true, but to balance it out there is probably some kid out there that's gonna feel like he won the father-in-law lottery some day.

​@@bdgackleif he's a normal guy and not a weirdo he will have won the FIL lottery

i mean, he did an intro that ended with "will a boyfriend stop a .50 cal" XD @@Urziel99

the ole stanky d i used to watch your vlogs all de time

Waiting for this collab 👀👀👀🔥

OHHHHHH BILLY

A collab would be awesome AF.​@@therealchrisreyna497

I’m definitely shitting in your mailbox for making me watch this whole thing lol.

cringe. try living ur own life. smh

Or do the family

Yeah it worried me for a sec too

he clickbaits intentionally a lot

your heart sank for some random dudes marriage? Jesus christ the internet has made soft men

@@sayso6119 yea you’re right. Definitely not something I am a fan of lol. He’s not quite as bad as DDE tho lol

@@richlandhillbillyperforman5425 yeah i don't like it either, but i understand why he does it. the more clicks he gets, the bigger the boost, the more the algorithm boosts the video

a great father wouldnt of put them in that situation first of all

@@jocelyndaoust3700 Shut up.

Same.

Ditto!

God damn right also RIP to the dude who has to show up to the first come meet my dad with her lol. It's gonna be "step into my safe, lets talk" lol.

that makes too much sense

The young man will ask the girl, "Is he cleaning his guns to intimidate me?" and she will reply, "No he started a month ago and is only half way through his collection."

Ez, keep them off social media and only give them flip phones.

​@wtfdtreats not even flip phones, teach em how to build wooden tops, scooters, kites etc.

I'm about to "Assume" the Male Role for my 12 yr old Grand Daughter. Her dad preferred Meth and Meth Ho's to being married and raising their Girls. I have a new born Filly, bor this past Summer, who needs Handling and Gentling, so I've "Conned" my Grand Daughter into spending her Summer "Helping Me" gentle this fine little Filly, in the hope that I can point her in another direction than the one her older Sister is Hell Bent on taking. In doing so, I hope to teach her "Horsemanship" along with Patience, Honor, Discipline, and Always keeping a Promise, even if you Hate it. Kinda "The Cowboy Code" but adapted to an at risk Little Girl. This isn't 2 strangers meeting. I've known and Adored her since Birth, and even tho I Love all 5 Grand Kids(None By Blood, but By Marriage #3 that didn't work), but I Raised the two Step Daughters from early Teens, and have a Solid Relationship with Both, and all the Gr Kids Love Papa & know he Brooks No Bullshit, so it ain't gonna be a TV Movie scenario, just my Busted Up Old Cowboy Ass trying to show this Youngun that she has Options in life & one of them is to be a Cowgirl if she wants to. Her Gentling and eventually Breaking this Filly to Ride, is what will make that decision for her. If she does it and loves that Filly like I assume she will, the Filly is already Hers.....She just doesn't know that part of it yet.....I Mean, How Cruel would it be to put her thru all the work that it will take and leave her with nothing but a "Thank You"? Hell, I'm 73 with a total of 7 Horses, besides the Filly, so it ain't like I'll be making a Big Sacrifice, by just giving her the Filly. I just want to make sure she has the Love Of The Sport Of Horse Ownership, Breaking & Training, and if she does, she'll inherit all my Horses, Tack, My 60 year old Saddle(I got it when I was 13) that's been All Over America more than several times, and strapped to God Knows how many Horses in my Misspent Youth as a Bronc Stomper & All Round Horseman. It's gonna be an "Interesting" Summer, and Afterward Wish me luck and a few Prayers wouldn't go unappreciated either

As a father with a 5yo daughter, I agree. I think any father of a daughter will agree.

I have a 19 yr old daughter and i have spent 19 years waiting for the day i have to hurt somebody. So far only one has come very close to it.

As someone with no kids or wife I wholeheartedly agree with this. It's good sense, always thought it was a bit of a risk showing the kids, not least because some people get fixated and weird really easily. I made a comment about liking a video game, someone found my email and spent a year just sending me a daily death threat, links to obvious gore or death videos, pictures of corpses, at the end of each month a question why I wasn't dead yet and some tips on how best to kill myself. Yeah... That for a whole year.

@@SiAnon I dunno how you guys do it. I never wanted kids, but I couldn't imagine what it's like to have a daughter. I'm 20 years older than my younger sister, and I remember talking to my dad when she was like....7 or something, and he was going on about how he was worried about boys being around his little girl when she got older. I still remember how relieved he was when she came out as a lesbian.

​@@Incognito1786 That's no relief

I don’t think it’s about letting them choose their own path per se, he didn’t say he didn’t want them to be famous, just that while they’re still kids, they get to be kids and not worry about being recognized. I’m sure he would support them if they decided to do youtube or something years later when they’re adults.

@@SoreTv he's still gonna get approached, so is he never gonna go out in public with his kids. He should've kept the videos about himself and guns. Left his family out of it. But it's all about those views. Lmfao, wanted to be famous, deal with it

@@SoreTv I agree if when they get older if they want to do RU-vid or something like that I believe he will whole heartedly support them and back them up!

And protecting those girls!!

@@dannyvela4521people like you are why we support Matt’s thought process, what a atrocious comment you just made just because a man put the safety of his kid before his career. I not even a father yet I know a person like you is not the type I want to have any form of contact with my kids

sigma

I haven't checked out any recent content but used to watch all his videos. His wife and kids were such a big part of it all. It's sad that this is the state of the world.

I just clicked on the vid and saw this comment. Jeez man, this is wayyyy worse than what I thought it was

@@bmdoes_stuff6861what do you mean

@@ghhfhgc2374 the topic of the video

Took the words out of my mouth. All the way from rainy Washington state.

Yeah, definitely more respect for that choice

GOBLESS

I was gonna say the same thing. He’s a good dad hats off to him

Only ten? Hopefully a lot longer than that!

Yeah honestly I thought Mer was spending her time at BB and the kids were going up.

Dang, I remember watching those 😂 thanks for bringing that memory back.

And for those who haven't watched those old videos... Go back in his channel and watch them! You are damn right though, I think it's great how open and honest he is. However, he doesn't owe anyone an explanation. Means a lot he's open and comfortable enough to talk about it in front of millions of strangers, much respect for this man!

@@onthefasttracktoheaven Could not agree more!

Yup been here since the shotgun rounds vids lol but RU-vid took them all down

Agreed 100%. Well put.

I was thinking this has to be a troll. Praying it was!!

I was just glad to see it WASN'T falling apart.

@@its_trenner2900same, the video title worried me a bit

I was scared for a sec but thank goodnesss

Yes, there are creepy jealous women on here at times. They like to spread lies about Matt and Mere.

Well said. Matt, you’ve already shared so much. It was rewarding to see your healthy strong family doing things together. You have every right to keep your family life private. Besides, you alone are more than enough entertainment for us !!

Much respect. I asked my wife for her permission before even using a picture of her and I together from a couple decades ago as my YT avatar. I totally get it. I also caught my son making a YT channel at age 14 and made him delete it, precisely because he didn't get it when it comes to safety and boundaries. This was very wholesome.

You're being a smart father by protecting your children . There are too many sickos out there that would do harm if they had a chance . At which we know Papa and mama bear would kick in . This world is dangerous and looking out for the best interest of your children is a very wise father .

Fello Wisconsin bro. here here

Not a father, but I have a younger sister. There's so many weird people out there, especially on the internet.

anyone have pics?

@@DG-kr8pt hilarious, underrated comment.

are your daughters hot

This 100 percent this !

I agree with this. I'm glad Matt went this direction. I will admit I did notice the lack of the family being in the videos and was really hoping that it was due to you not wanting monetize your family. I've seen so many families being torn apart due to public scrutiny on RU-vid. I'm glad this decision was made and think it was good one. And it's cool to see the resort opening on my 41st birthday.

3 cheers for Matt!!!

Cheers 🍻

Literally 🙈💀

fr

Or give us hope we might have a shot lol

@@the88thdarcstarhome wrecker😭🤣

Why would that scare you it doesn't affect you some of you take this way to personal it's creepy

At the most quietly say DEMOLITIA with the nod

I totally agree!

I don't even do that I ignore celebrities completely. One time Don Cheadle said hi to me and I was just like "uh hi". To be fair I didn't recognize him at first.

@@jeffhaft7378 Chanting it helps.

I consider now officially that putin and zelensky are both dictators. Now is a good time to remember usa isnt a form of demcoracy

its sad that it’s common from some of our favorite youtubers we grew up watching. lunkers TV Donut Operator. etc

" Marriages lasting make me so happy:) "

This is a weirdo thing to comment.

!00% agreed and same for me too. I know I'll likely die alone partly due to my health and the fact that I don't want to risk being in a toxic relationship which is so common these days, but this and other family vlog channels got me out of depression and kept me going. Thankfully though, I made a new close friend a few years ago who keeps me happy and don't need vlogs to keep me going anymore. But I do still miss them. It isn't just this channel that did it either. In fact I think when the incident with the Atwood's happened, that seemed to trigger Matt's family right away (and likely several others too) as he changed how he ran his channel right away. I fully understand and agree with Matt's decision and am kind of surprised he didn't do it sooner. And yes, we will all miss Mere's very contagious laugh and unique personality.

LoL, your username is Big Wang Mark hahahhahha, you're who he is talking about. (Im just joking, Im sure you're a regular guy)

Loser

​@@biowerks exactly who he's talking about. single creepy guy that loves Matt's family. that's who he doesn't want gawking his daughters. what a creep!

I've been watching you for a long time. I've been thinking the same thing for a long time, the safety of your kids. There's a lot of nut jobs out there. I kind of knew that's why you stopped having them on. God bless and keep trucking.

I think seeing Roman and Brittany go thru a stalking like situation and have their safety and personal space violated by digital hackers as well as people parking at the end of the driveway was personally motivating!

Facts I've seen him at cleetus and cars indy and bristol hes a hell of a great dude from what i witnessed...Matt if you read this I'll vouge for you and I'll see ya at the next one. I never bothered him either time but I'm talking about 3 to 5ft away at most and he was welcoming to everyone that came up to him and never pushed anyone way or anything like that

He did a similar thing a few years ago. That being said, I was curious and was assuming he did it to make the people spreading the divorce rumors go "I knew it!"

"Knowing" Matt, I just figured it would be what it is.

Congrats on your pending nuptials!
