Jesssfam Wants To Exploit Kids That Aren't Hers | The Wicked Stepmom Syndrome | Don't Buy A Dyson 

It feels weird to get personal on here but I feel as if this is important to share. I fell into the mommy vlogger hole when I was pregnant with my son. I had a difficult childhood and dealt with immense abuse and trauma. I had so much anxiety surrounding raising him because I knew what I didn’t want for him, but had no example of how to implement what I did want for him. I wanted to know what “normal” families looked like. What did their mornings look like? How did they interact at dinner? Did they have nighttime routines? What did they eat? Jesssfam was the first vlogger I started watching. This is obviously dangerous to impressionable new moms like myself. I couldn’t shake the feeling that what they were doing was wrong… no child should have their personal struggles documented on the internet and their parents shouldn’t be profiting off of injuries, disabilities, etc. I thankfully listened to my gut and realized her life is NOT normal. Mommy vloggers do NOT have their kids best interest at heart. They should not be role models to anyone. When I found your channel all my feelings surrounding these vloggers were validated. Thank you for fighting this fight. 👊

Shout out to this mother who doesn't want her child being exploited by Jess fam. Go her!!!

"I'm not sponsored by them I'm literally doing this out of spite" YES! Finally someone as spiteful as I am. Shark all the way bitches.

How much you want to bet, Tommy was over at the house... Where there's a bunch of toys, junk food, a swimming pool... And he casually said "I wish I lived here/this was my house", and they started immediately planning the transition for him! Meanwhile he just likes the house.

I would love to hear Tommy and Cadens moms opinion on everything!

My thing is, if one of jess’s kids wanted to live with their dads she would be like hell no, but it’s ok to take a young child away from his mom because it benefits her. smh

But Jess, if you're so heavily using this Dyson that you love and adore, what will become of the robot vacuum you were sponsored by a couple of months ago? 😏

I love your slogan: “I am not sponsored by Shark, I am literally doing this out of spite” 🤣

I actually got “advice” to grow my RU-vid channel from a pretty well known “RU-vid help” channel and they told me “you should probably just get pregnant again...” 😑🙄 needless to say I did NOT take that advice because it’s a ridiculous and stupid reason to get pregnant. (Although about a year later I am pregnant now 😂 but only because my husband and I ACTUALLY wanted to grow our family)

Josh is the rugged but lovable Canadian mountaineer dad we all wish we had

Yeesss! Finally another JessFam video! JessFam is definitely one of my favorite family vloggers to snark on. The funniest part about this video is that Josh is wearing the same shirt as JessFam XD

You’re totally right Josh, Chris’s kids mom HAS said she doesn’t want them on the internet from the beginning! There are tweets about it that she put out in maybe 2015? But it’s definitely known the mom is unhappy about the RU-vid channel.

as much as I agree it would be interesting to see what Chris's ex wife thinks and the truth of what is going on I think a lot of these parents in similar situations don't come to the internet because they don't want to add to the drama and videos on the internet surrounding their kids. having your parents discussing their custody battles and talking shit about one another is just gonna be another shitty thing linked to their kid when they're grown up for everyone to see.

their mother stated several years back that she doesn't want her kids on the videos and Jessica completely ignored her

The husband moved eight hours away from his kids. He says she cheated and x y z but he moved so far away that shared custody was not feasible. He doesn’t get to pick the kids up and move them to him just because it’s convenient.

I feel like JessFam tries hard to be the “energetic mom” she looks weird doing that.

We as parents must protect our children from harmful situations AND even from themselves....especially the teens!

You’re my new favorite RU-vid. THANK YOU for bringing this to light.

Yes I tossed my Dyson too I constantly had to take it apart to get hair and fur that got cought in the bottom piece. I bought a shark and it is AWESOME 🤩 just No better vacuum out there!

I come from a family of divorce and a pretty toxic situation, let's be real. I cannot fathom having issues of custody being discussed...on the internet...for money. It's just so unreal.

Good for Chris` ex for standing by her guns and wanting a more normal childhood for her boys.Wise lady.

I actually watched Jesssfam and have since she was pregnant with Lilia, I found your channel today and it really opened my eyes to another point of view but to be completely honest, I’ve ALWAYS felt like Jess is secretly pissed because Ashley (Tommy and Caden’s mom) wants nothing to do with her, total opposite of Gabe’s wife. I believe she already expressed in the beginning that she did not want those kids on the internet and she’s NEVER been respected by Jess, that’s why she doesn’t give her the time of the day. I’ve actually ALWAYS felt for her.

Your reaction to the Jesssfam sign cracks me up every time. Lol!

Off topic but I picked the best time to watch this video … waiting for my gestational diabetes test in hospital - so I’m crying laughing in a quiet room full of hungry pregnant women 😂

Cool Story: When my mom was sick, I spent every single day doing nothing but overthinking and over researching. Taking care of her was my life so over spending filled such a void at the time… My dad never cleaned a day in his life & family was coming over. He trusted me with his card and sent me off to Walmart to get a vacuum. I’m sure he expected me to spend no more than $50. I BOUGHT A SHARK! Years pass by, I start living life after my mom passes away & my dad is left to vacuum for the first time in his life. Three times he’s gotten aggressive with that Shark vacuum & was sent an entirely new one each and every time. Shark doesn’t sell replacement parts but they will replace the entire vacuum. It is worth every penny. People can keep their dyson hype because I only buy Sharks now.

You are Effie funny dude! Her kids are like free range chickens. Chris’s kids are well behaved. They have a good mother.

I just commented, but this is such an important topic. They are making the mom out to be the bad guy, even if they say she is a good mom, they are still insinuating to the kid that mom said no. Why wouldn’t a kid want to live there, they do nothing but have fun. My heart breaks for this kid because he doesn’t understand that it’s in his best interest not to be living in a place where he will be exploited. He knows he wants to live with his dad in the super fun house where they are always getting new things and going to cool places. The last thing that anyone wants is for this kid to feel rejected by not being able to live with his dad. I struggled with thinking my dad, step mom, little brother and sister did all this fun stuff while I was at my mom’s, that I was being left out. My mom was very focused on making sure I was self sufficient, got good grades, excelled in what I was interested in, and focused on the less fun parts of life…she was a good mom. My dad and step mom were all about partying, heading to the lake whenever they could, didn’t care about me getting my homework done, would let me stay home from school whenever I wanted, and made fun of me sometimes for being a dork about practicing music and all that. The problem is that, as a kid you don’t appreciate the parent who is making you do your homework, you want to be out with the fun parent. I feel bad for the kid and the mom, who seems to just want to protect her kids.

I hate the terms baby daddy and baby mama. Whoever came up with it 😡

Jessfam watching the end of your videos like: *”yes, I am beautiful. yes, I am amazing. yes, I am perfect and wonderful and all the things.”* 👁👄👁

I’m glad to hear that Tommy went home! I remember when Jess said that Tommy wanted to live with them and I was like oh no! I haven’t watched Jess video for weeks I just wait and hope you will talk about her video!

Plot twist- JESSSFAM “This is how I really clean my house” (lets reptiles loose)

I love my Shark vacuum! Only vacuum I've ever had that hasn't taken a crap after 6 months to a year when it slowly stops sucking! I've had my shark vacuum for like 4 years & it's still going strong even though its been used like crazy in our home with 3 kids & numerous animals & never even clogs when hay gets sucked up from the floor from the guinea pigs & rabbit! BUY SHARK!

Pregnant with #6😬 .. I am not a family vlogger just a regular stay at home mom 🤷🏻‍♀️ love my kids to pieces and really we just had an amazing first and kept trying to recreate him 😂 !! I realize big families are not for everyone but it works for us. A game changing recommendation to cleaning with lots of kids .. cut down on the clutter !! Minimize !! Just this morning I got rid of two garbage bags full of broken toys and random things that end up in our house.

I saw the original vlog about Tommy wanting to live with Chris. I didn’t give it a second thought, but after watching this one I was like, “hm, I wonder why” being filmed 24/7 and the other boys closer to his age. I also agree with you about the trips, pool, no rules or structure at the jessfam house as a reason. I do really hope that Tommy’s mom fights for things to stay the same. 💕

I found your channel in the comment section of sloan's channel, and I absolutely LOVE hearing you shoutout sloan! Really enjoying your channel so far, thanks for the content!

As often as they go to Disney the kids probably begged to stay home this time lol

It's very telling that Jess won't tell certain thing becos "X doesn't consent to that." Meaning whoever she's discussing HAS the capability of consenting whereas the kids are incapable of doing so and thus they are able to tell themselves they're not breaking rules

Cats eat bugs too! My cat is an amazing little hunter and keeps us bug free. Being minimal helps too.

Her friend that went to Florida with them has a vlog and she says she wasn't gonna vlog that day but since the school nurse called she said picked up the camera because it's content! Her son's problem with the school nurse is content=exploitation!

I really want to hear his ex wife's side of the story! If she legally can get her kids off the internet!

I do think that something happened prior to all of this with the mom of the boys. Because Jess used to talk crap about her all of the time. And then in this video she's like we have to be careful, nothing against his mom, etc.

best channel i've ever found! im so happy someone is calling out these REDICULOUS "parents"...i don't think I've seen anyone do it but "tea" channels who are just there to exploit the kids even further.

I'm willing to bet that they wouldn't want Tommy to live with them if the only way for him to live there was without being filmed. It would make their "job" so much more difficult if they couldn't film one of their kids.

I'll take you on any trip you want but when the cameras r rolling, you call me mom lmao

I look at pictures of my babies and can't imagine having them online! It just seems so so unfair. They are so young and innocent and you're right that they cant consent. They have no way of understanding what the internet really is.

I just found your channel and hands down my favorite channel. I love how you care about all the kids on all these channels.

Chris' two sons don't even have their own bedroom at the house. When they moved into the house all of Jesss' kids had rooms all personalised to what they love. Jesss' eldest child even got her own room. Meanwhile Chris' sons had a room done with a random theme that doubles as a guest room. Imagine going to your dads and all your siblings have bedrooms and you're in the guest room. Also I hope Shark don't ever sponsor family vloggers. I love mine to much to give it up!

Why did they even think to start getting school papers ready if they need to go to court?! I think something more happened and it didn’t go THEIR way which is why they’re making a video and saying he’s not really coming lmaoo

The Ingham family also stopped Isabelle ( Sarah’s daughter before she got with Chris) seeing her bio dad and his family ( wife and son, plus his parents). She used to spend time with him/them regularly, but Sarah claimed he was physically abusive when Sarah was with him, and it seems like Chris and Sarah paid him off to stop contact. Allegedly, he wasn’t happy with Isab3lle being filmed and wouldn’t let her film content when she was with him.

The Shark Apex really is amazing !!! I clean houses and I’ve switched all of my clients from Dyson over to the Shark apex - easiest vacuum to use !!

I am a stepmother to my 9 year old daughter, the circumstances are a bit different than theirs BUT, I have a tik tok w my daughter and I would NEVER post anything on it without consent from my husband and her mother! I actually keep all of her posts on only show to friends and we have 0 lmaoooo I just think this whole social media, family vlogger shit is so different and I’m sure hard to navigate. This world we live in is just so fuckin weird these days,man. Love what u do dude! Keep killing it!!!!

Josh saying "Ewww" in regards to the bugs, then saying the bearded dragon would be a hack to killing the bugs in the house was great. When I see a bug in my house I pick up one of my cats 🐈 and I have them get it lol.

Yes, Josh please continue to expose these parents who exploit their kids for money. It sickens me to see how parents do not care about the privacy of their children.

I want to know if Tommy & Caden’s mom have access to their Instagram accounts.

Ok I had to laugh. When you were describing the mom in the beginning, I swear you were describing someone I know 😂😂

Josh brought the snark and the shark, he ain’t playing today😂

It would be funny if Disney started restricting monetized videos on their grounds.

I laughed really hard at the eyelash joke. That made my night, thank you!

Did the boys mum ever reach out to you? I’m dying to know what she thinks of all this. If she said no, and they did it anyway, people need to know.

I hate my dyson. It's shit. Thanks for the recommendation! Also, you are hilarious and totally the best.

I have to tell you that I can’t not look at a container of cocoa or something that has it as a main ingredient and not say “co-co-uh” in my head. 🤦🏻‍♀️🤣 Damn it, Myka!

I don’t recall how I originally found your channel but here I am still following…I enjoy the dancing, I enjoy the singing, I wholeheartedly agree with your stance on child exploitation. But most of all I love your snooty cats. Hello from a cat loving single mum in sleepy rural Norfolk UK. Power to the cause Josh. 😻

When I see Jess I always hear “I’m the cool mom” vibe. She has the mentality of a teenager and wouldn’t want my kid living there either. She’s the type that is her kids “friend”. Kids needs parents not friends or buddies and structure not exploited. I’m a stepmom and a bio mom and good parents do fight for their kids and are actually parents and have their well-being forefront at all times. My husband has sole custody of his teenage daughter and let me tell ya I see first hand the damage people like Jess have on their kids because they are their friend instead parent and the stable parent pays dearly. They turn the kid against them and everything and are like fricken teenagers themselves to deal with.

Why does the blanket look like a casket liner?? Lmao

I really wish someone could get in touch with the mom of these 2 boys and find out her opinion on everything. I'm sure she's staying quiet because she doesn't exploit her children

I bet she doesn’t want them on a ton. Right now they are only there for trips and summer and school breaks. I pray the mother fights this and doesn’t let her kids in there. I really hope the twins and laundrons dad fights too. I know the oldest won’t cause he and his wife have a Chanel

I love my Shark vacuum and Bissell Crosswave! Lol no room for Dyson in my house!! ✨

So ready for some snark tonight!! 🙌

Dyson is reaching out to lots of family vloggers. Crazy Pieces and Crazy Middles have done these ads as well

It’s so cringe to me when vloggers talk about things happening “behind the scenes.” Like no that’s just a deeply personal and private matter that should never be public anyway!

And why isn't the real mom getting a cut of the money when her kids are used?🤷‍♀️

Vacuum twins! I also tried a dyson and it 👏did👏not👏suck. It was a cordless vac for the RV. I replaced it with the Shark Duo Clean. Comes with 2 batteries and I can use one to run thru the whole rv. Highly recommend Shark Duo Clean (tm) 🥳

Bahahaha so insane! As I listen to this video I am unpacking my Shark Apex that was just delivered! Thanks for the rec Josh!

A relative of mine went to Disney without her children (10 and 12 at the time) I couldn't believe it! She was also a teen mom and has an identical personality to JessFam.

Oh man when you said Drake I was like ohhhh! I wonder if he’d talk. I mean he has another child with another girl too, she use to vlog and make videos too. Their drama was so crazy! Come on drake! Protect your boys!!!!

sooo if i were a lawyer, i would tell the other parent who's not on youtube to not take it public. it could easily hurt the case. especially when you have the other parent uploading all kinds of "content" you could use against them. just a thought of why the other parent might not be going public.

I am a fan and I just watch these because they are funny to me.

Omg my household vacuum is a very expensive Dyson and it sucks. Used a Shark at a friend's house and it was amazing. I do %100 of the vacuuming but wasn't given a say in what vacuum we got so I'm stuck using the Dyson and getting blamed for what a poor job it does!

I was a teen mom and sometimes I’m like, damn, I could’ve been making money off of that? Lol Instead I went to college, got my masters degree, and teach high schoolers. I suck lol. Jk I love my job. Also I have the rona and even though I never know who any of these family vloggers are, I appreciate the distraction.

lol, love that you reviewed the vacuum out of spite

Ohhhh I’m SO ready for this one!!! (I’m dying at the thumbnail!)

I have such a hard time understanding her because she speaks so fast. She is hyper all the time. And like Josh, you like need to get like a big sign for like your wall that says "JossshDad"

The way Josh was saying EWWWWWW 😣 when she was feeding the lizard 😂😂😂

Josh-hire the lizard for bug control...Im dying laughing!🤣🤣 I am & encourage everyone to write Dyson customer relations about the flea bags they pay to advertise for them. 💜🤗

being antisocial here! my housband is making barbecue with friends in our patio, im here waiting for Josh's vid!!

The lizard is the coolest thing about Jesssfam. Edit: Ok, Josh just said it, too. 😄

probably the kids are just SO tired of going to disney that they were relieved they were not a part of that trip!!

I have that same shark vacuum. Love it!!♥️♥️

JESS is the stepmom in this situation

I’d leave my kids for a disney trip, in a heartbeat. lol I love Disney. BUUUT only if I was able to take my kids to Disney other times, which Jess does. That’s the least of her issues lol

I agree on Dyson. Mine has been in the shop more than in my home!!

I also don't think they needed to even talk about how he wanted to move. It was only to make them look good. It reminded me of the time Jess said in a q&a with her ex and his wife about how her ex's wife's son (her ex's stepson) said he wanted to live with her. Which if you've seen any of their videos he seems so out of place/overwhelmed around Jess and Jess mentioned its because he doesn't like doing chores or having a bedtime

no amount of money will ever make me exploit my kids!!

Aahhh the video that started it all for me Don't know how this popped up in my feed But it was differently my AHAh moment And I went back to the start of your videos Almost finished can't wait to watch them on the day of 😀😀 💟🖤💜💛💚

Hiya all om hear I'm catching up. Never miss an episode haha. Iv escaped to my bedroom leaving my wonderful children with their Daddy to bake cakes. Phones on my wireless charger, volume turned up while I fold my familys laundry and put it away🤣 this is what i call me time these days..haha I don't mind though. A Sunday well spent offers a week of content 🥰 let's get to it 🤪

Que the Jaws music....😊 Another great video Josh!! 👍👍

My husband and I live for your jesssssfam videos!

The bearded dragon is the best part. I love me some lizards and some DCP so this was the best. As a lizard owner I find it very weird that she dumped all those bugs on the floor and hoped he would get them all. That is not normal.

Pregnant lady here who puked in the car this morning and is currently stuffing my face with mashed potatoes it’s beautiful lol 😂

Over here anxiously waiting for more videos with Jordan and McKay🙃
