Anyone who claims this isn't abuse has seriously broken morals.
I checked out a few channels that are literally begging for DOF to take their videos off of private and most of them are children (probably not even 10 years of age) who upload their own videos. The rest are very barren accounts that only folllow DOF content, which means they're most likely sock-puppets. That aside, I don't get how children find those videos funny. I know kids can be little shits but Cody has been visibly injured and tortured. Is their fan base nothing but children who have no decent guardians?
J. biz he said on his latest video it is fake the vids were always only meant for entertainment purposes only
@@JadieUnruly You're a fucking idiot if you believe it's for entertainment purposes. This is all kinds of sick.
I'm getting second hand trama from my dad step mom and step sisters......
@@JadieUnruly if the videos were fake then Cody is the best child actor I've ever seen. If they are fake, Cody is able to put on a more convincing performance than any Hollywood actor I've ever seen.
They weren't fake. Michael only said that because people caught on to the clear abuse and that was the only thing he could do to try to get the controversy to die down.
"I can't do my work when everyone is talking" That's a legitimate thing. I'm an adult, in college, and I can't focus worth a damn if there are too many people talking. I tried to do homework in a dining hall once and literally got dizzy. It's not just an excuse... Poor kid...
@@jaschanel8063 ODD has more to do with resisting authority and not liking that someone else is in control. It has nothing to do with inability to focus due to sensory overload. Also, I'm sorry, but ODD has become the new ADHD in that any kid who is acting out for any reason is suddenly labeled as having it. That's not to say that it isn't real, I'm sure it is. But maybe in some cases if a kid is resisting authority there's an actual real life reason outside of a disorder with very loose diagnostic criteria. For example a kid who has been abused by an authority figure (such as a parent) may have trouble trusting authority. That isn't a disorder, it's the symptoms of trauma. But again. Regardless it has no effect on his ability to focus. What he said was that he asked the teacher if he could work in the hall so that he could avoid the noise of people talking. That's a reasonable question (obviously depending on phrasing, but the concept is reasonable). Growing up, there were a few people I knew who would occasionally do that. Personally, at his age I didn't need to because I could basically just force myself to hyperfocus on my work and everything else just disappeared. In college I've found it a lot harder and I do actually have to go to quiet places to work. So everyone is affected by sensory input differently.
Simply Vince they don’t even have to be talking tbh. Just being in a classroom with so many people is distracting to me. I thought I had it rough with my military father, but this is just sad.
there was many videos where Cody would turn to his homework in fear and in some way to escape the torture they were going to inflict which he saw coming. He would always try desperately to use his homework as an excuse. Im so mad again rn remembering this
Danny Buoy - ADHD often runs alongside ODD specifically because those who have ADHD think and process emotional information differently. For some people who have ADHD this difference in development can lead to both hypersensitivity or emotional detachment. I have ADHD myself I am currently receiving treatment for it, but I have been born into a family of drug dealers/addicts, murders, narcissists, psychopaths, and somewhat religious extremists. That combination genetically and environmentally was unhealthy for me and all of my family members. I can’t lay out the whole situation here but I can say that I don’t trust anyone emotionally or physically, I hate being in the presence of large groups of people (like at family gatherings) because I feel like everyone who claims to care about me or support me is lying no matter what (it’s a weird paranoid thing that is fading with time), I still have large gaps in memory that are just gone or blacked out, I have some memories that I only start to remember or that just pop up whenever something similar to that specific memory happens and my mind apparently decides the time is right for some emotional dust to be disturbed, I become defensive when people press on or question my emotions and reactions to stress, I space out when some topics are brought up (hearing without listening or comprehending the words or meaning of the conversation), it continues to be hard to explain or defend my actions because it makes me feel emotionally venerable and that is not something i’m willing to be around people I don’t know are trustworthy, it’s hard to empathize with people due to emotional blocking a defensive mechanism for those who have been subject to constant verbal abuse, it’s hard to experience emotions at all due to an innate fear of being judged or mocked for having normal emotional reactions and on the other hand taking words too seriously or crying for absolutely no reason other than to let out the emotional buildup. These issues are all the result of the extreme bullying at school and neglect at home I experienced when I was young and although i’m working on sorting out my issues and becoming a better person not every kid has the opportunity to get away from those situations. In this way I empathize with Cody and his sister because I know what it’s like to feel so emotional and yet so powerless to stop the verbal and physical barrages. I wouldn’t be surprised if Cody blamed himself for everything, especially considering the way that Cody’s father constantly told Cody that all of the chaos, physical abuse, and mental abuse is Cody’s fault. Cody probably still looked up to his dad to some extent and I wouldn’t doubt that, after a while of hearing his dad say that everything is all his fault, Cody himself would start to believe that and may have blamed himself for all of the actions taken against him. I know this comment seems vague but describing the memories I have of that period of time is difficult even after four years of being out of that bad situation, and I guess the anonymity of a site like this one is the only real reason I feel comfortable with disclosing anything at all.
He needs an IEP so the teacher will be forced to accommodate him and he needs to be removed from his father's custody and put into his mother's custody who understands his special needs and he isn't told he's shit every day.
When poor cody started crying when he was trying to explain WHY he can't focus in school and even ask the teacher for a solution, the dad just shuts him down. It fucking broke my heart and I started to tear up.
It makes me so sad. I had these same kind of focus issues in school and tried to tell my parents just like this, and my dad basically said the same thing. Made it out to be an excuse. So I just learned to shut up. Now as a 26 year old, I struggle with speaking up about anything..and I have ended up in relationships with narcissistic abusers.
A cycle is going to be started from this.
@@breep7213 I have issues with anxiety, and literally everyone in my family expects me to buck up and get over it. I can't just "buck up and get over it", it's like telling someone with pneumonia to stop coughing! Parents just don't seem to understand
@@kennastout7621 Oh sweetie, I am so sorry to hear this! People without REAL anxiety or depression just cannot fathom or understand. But they should NEVER disregard your struggles! Fine, WE understand that they can't identify with our issues, BUT they can at least TRY & read about what it's like, how to HELP, & try to imagine how bad it makes us feel in the moment. It's NOT your fault dang it!! And, a parent acting like YOU can just ignore it or control the issue without real help is FAILING YOU miserably. Sorry to say it so bluntly, but it's true. It only ADDS to your anxiety when a parent ignores, blames, & makes no real effort to understand at all what their child is going through. UGH...I really hope things get better FAST for you! Big hugs to you!🤗🤗🤗
“THE WORLD DOES NOT REVOLVE AROUND YOU”
I literally want to smack the shit out of this man.
I am someone who suffers with ADHD and had similar problems as a child, but not to this extreme 😡 I hope this man is in jail for fucks sake, he’s pure evil.
Literally. Him saying that the ‘world doesn’t revolve around him’ is the same shit my dad would do to me to make me feel like I’m the selfish one.
So many fathers that wrongfully have their children stripped from them, here's one that shouldn't have custody
-and he had them anyway.
Joke of a system.
agreed
Oh yeah big boi 5 months late just like my dad to my graduation haha so anyway this is like uber fucked up I made a post on Facebook (im a degenerate) about this channel which caught no traction back in the day. This entire thing has been good vibes for me
I agree... Dad's are winning now merely due to this stigma. It has nothing to do with the welfare of the children. It's about money, what attorney you have and the judge you get. Period. NOTHING to do with what's best for the children involved.
if I see this man in public I might end up in jail. My dad treated me like this and Im STILL in therapy.
Dovvie Dean falling waters WV, pretty damn small town too.
Stay strong! My heart breaks for all kids in such situations.....❤️
yeah well, if you encounter him and do that, hit me up i'll take all the blame just for being grateful that someone did something
@SuperPikachu Jexs have you tried 7 cups of tea my man? it's a website where you can talk with people willing to listen. not therapy, but therapeutic. things will get better :)
Same that shirt thing is something my dad would do and you better believe I am NOT going to his house this summer
That kid seems so intelligent and awefully aware of the situation he is in... for a kid, he has some good arguments against his dad... but noone listens to him. He seens so smart but everyone disregards him... thats so sad!
I was just thinking the same thing, hope he can recover from this bullshit fully.
Did you see how he stopped immediately when going up the stairs and sat down, the tears and obvious pain in his eyes that his own father wouldn't listen. When he was doing the outro only to be cut off and his eye roll that of course that happens, like always. I really thought I saw bruises in the clip as well...I really worry for him and I hope that he gets away from that monster.
@@nevetxwolflocke2138 you did see bruises on both arms fading but they are really there
@@kyleweir8034 Thank you for confirming that.
I was Cody in my family. My family wasn't AS abusive, but they pulled some of those stunts and I would yell and scream at them the same way while they laughed hysterically. My mother still brings it up sometimes and tells me what a whiny brat I was that "couldn't take a joke".
We don't speak.
"You're ruining my experience" You just verbally beat your child into tears while recording. You're a monster.
And that he wants to be down there with HIS FAMILY decorating the tree. -_- all is sick
Where did he say that
Cody is going to have serious problems with forming meaningful relationships, and it's absolutely horrifying to watch. This poor boy was being taught every day that nobody in the world cares about his feelings or experiences. His father and stepmother spend so many of his formative years telling him that his preferences don't matter, his emotional responses make him
a bad person, and that nobody in the world cares about his suffering.
I hope that Cody's mother is getting him quality therapy and I hope his father pays for it, because this kind of treatment is scarring.
He reminds me of the dad from Matilda; "I'm smart, you're dumb; I'm big, you're little; I'm right, you're wrong, and there's nothing you can do about it." Sad
The thing about that is Matilda did get back. I hope someday Cody will too.
OhMyGodBrittany the difference is that Danny DeVito is a nice guy.
I'd say he's worse than Mr. Wormwood.
Legendary Gamerzzz65 The devil wouldn't even do that.
OhMyGodBrittany oh I hated all the adults in the movie except ms Honey
He said "the world doesn't revolve around you" and I felt that all the way over here. It made me cry. A lot of what he said was wrong but... If your kid is crying because they have had a bad day, strait up having a panic attack... That is just not the right reaction. Also your world should revolve around your kids... Find a better way to talk to your kids because the way you talk to your kids becomes their inner voice.
"the way you talk to your kids becomes their inner voice" that just made me burst into tears lol, makes me better understand why i have very low self esteem
If that's true, it explains a lot 😂
You are absolutely right
the guy reminds me of my dad, controlling and mean and wont let you have your own emotions. it was always "I didn't make you sad", "you shouldn't feel that way". its fucked up :(
Words of wisdom!
"I should be downstairs decorating the tree with MY FAMILY . But instead I'm up here dealing with you"
😢
It speaks volumes about how he feels about him :.(
I’m half way in and I can’t finish. My father was abusive and it left me with PTSD. The way the father speaks sounds just like my dad. This is awful. Poor kid
Same
Same with my mom. I’m watching in segments because I’m fresh out of my abusive house and it helps me not convince myself I was making it all up.
1000 Rats True signs of abuse is believe you made everything up as a further coping mechanism.
I’m sorry about it. I wish I could’ve help. I hope you get better soon love ❤️
Wow wow Lulu aw thank you, I'm working on healing
Honestly, I’m glad they posted their videos on TH-cam, or else no one would know about the abuse that poor child went through
Robert Hall, the grandfather of Cody and Emma Martin is urging TH-cam to take down the videos, but to no avail. So he decided to boycott TH-cam because he believes that TH-cam is profiting off of child abuse. He is advocating censorship. Those videos will be a reminder of how callous parents can be. If those videos are removed, then we'll probably have another DO5 incident.
its also said how many other kids are probably going through it
@Toby yes but it shouldn't have taken as long as it did for the world to save them from their dad. I am glad it happened tho.
As someone who came from an abusive home and dealt with this same behaviour, that clip about the shirt actually gave me a PTSD episode and almost sent me into a panic attack because I remembered dealing with things exactly like what Cody is going through. That is NOT corporal punishment, that is abuse and I really hope they take away that pos rights to those kids. My heart is with those kids and I hope they get out before it's too late.
Starryize same omfg. This shit was triggering :(
Growing up in New England, most people were Pats fans as you would presume. A family in my neighborhood were randomly into Miami Dolphins. When their kids wanted to be Pats fans, the mother ripped their Pats jerseys up in front of them and said that this is a Dolphins household...simply because the father was randomly into them for some reason. It wasn't even his rule to enforce. He was pretty passive. His mother was a narc and so was his wife. He basically married his mother.
I started shaking and crying when he cried on the stairs... he wanted to run but then was screamed at for that too, and feeling trapped by someone screaming is a serious trigger for me....I hate knowing he's going to feel this stuff forever...
I started crying when seeing the little boy trapped on the stairs and yelled at by his father. I had a bit of PTSD too watching the dad scream loudly. My dad would always yell and I absolutely hate people yelling! I wanted to run up to the boy and hug him and protect him because I understand so much about his situation in an abusive household!
Anyone have a update?
That Judge should be sued & Fired! These kids took so much abuse from their dad, step mom and siblings. Heather verbally telling Mike that she doesn't want Cody to go is disgusting! She should be helping that child. Not bashing him down.
This triggered me so much. I'm autistic and I've been treated like that during my whole childhood. During school, when I came back from it to my dad abusing me like that, during night terrors, etc. I still have those last ones, I have PTSD because of all that I went through. I've been on therapy for several years and THIS KIND OF MENTAL SCARRING *NEVER* goes away.
My heart goes to Cody, hopefully he's living a way better life and has an amazing recovery from this.
Jesus... it was so hard not to cry, not to have a PTSD episode, not to see myself in him. I wish him nothing but the best
Ethan Matt I’m sorry you had to go through that.
There are moments where I have been abused by my parents just a little bit, but they do it because my parents know what they’re doing. They don’t curse at me, they don’t threat me all the time with punishment for no reason, they do yell and scream at me, but it’s because whenever I do something wrong. Not horrifically wrong, but doing basic mistakes that every kid in a certain family makes. And my parents NEVER manipulate me to do something wrong to get awesome rewards or some crap like that. In my family, my mom always says to me when you make good choices, you get good results and when you make bad choices you make bad results. These parents never see that.
I don't think that Maryland fully understands the fact that a fully grown human being is fully physically capable of beating a child with their bare hands, sometimes even to death. You don't need a blunt object for that.
johnny quest
Honestly fuck Maryland
The state of Maryland SURE AS HELL will send someone to jail for beating an adult, but if somebody beats their own child? That's corporal punishment and it's ok. What the fuck kind of logic is that??? At what age does it become unacceptable to beat the living shit out of people? 10? 12? 18, when they're legally an adult? I really wanna know when they start valuing your life and your humanity, because it's very clear that if you're a child and the person hurting you the most is your own flesh and blood, they do not see you as someone worthy of saving.
I don't think that the state of MD is seeing all the evidence. There is no way they were presented with all of this evidence and then determined this to not be abuse. I live in MD. Corporal punishment is the act of spanking the child, not mental abuse.
You can do all sorts of things without a weapon and it's so fucking stupid that Maryland doesn't recognize that
Maryland is dumb as hell..
As the son of an abuser, I hope he goes to prison and meets up with all those prisoners that got abused as children.
The0True0Ratmous his Behavior remind me so much of my father. It breaks my heart.
The0True0Ratmous I agree. The bastard deserves poetic justice!
The0True0Ratmous Hed be at the bottom of the food chain.
90% of guys that act tough and aggressive with weaker individuals(so they're complete cowards) are gonna be gangraped the minute they enter in prison.
Do5 is one of them, they're gonna use his ass like a trash can lol
Shitpost
Exactly. Even the most hardened gangmembers wont stand for shit like that.
my heart goes out to Rose, Cody, and Emma. the legal system really truly has failed them.
i haven't kept up with the story of the kids what has actually happened with them?
A few years ago Michael lost custody of Cody and Emma
People in North Korea, surrounded by authority figures and cameras:
"We are not abused here! We're very happy and treated very well!"
Not much of a difference....
Okay but coming from an abusive home as well, i would be concerned for how much more violent the dad is off camera. And how violent he may become after the channel gets taken down
They lost custody of emma and cody and they also got 5 yrs probation, sadly no jail time
Seriously wtf "As long as these videos aren't on youtube everything is fine". WHAT ABOUT THE KIDS?
My dad always says if theyre (people abusing kids publicly) willing to do this what sort of things they will do in private
Yeah he shouldn't just get his channel taken down they both should be in prison and those children need to be with their mother
𝖎𝖈𝖐𝖎 𝖋𝖆𝖗𝖖𝖚𝖆𝖆𝖉 wtf do you mean I hope you don’t mean that because that is in no way true those CHILDREN were so hurt being hit and yelled at I don’t care if the channel gets taken down those kids need to have there real mother
when he said "i wanna go decorate the tree with my family but im here with you!" literally hurt my heart. because he basically told the kid he wasn't apart of his family (im probably overthinking it but its still really sad)
Donk! ;o I was thinking the same thing. That little boy is HIS child, not the step kids.
You're not over thinking it. That's what he said and that's what he meant. THAT is why he is able to treat that poor sweet little boy like that, because that boy isn't his family. That is exactly how he feels.
La Bella its so awful how he can just treat such a small human so poorly it sucks 😔
i dont think you are overthinking it at all. ive been adopted and when my "parents"said something like that to me it screwed with my head for days. and for me it was true. i wasnt biologically a part of their family, so if you actually are... i cant even imagine how that must feel..
@@mereljanssen5794 was it a foster home or did they really adopt you? thats so horrible. When im like 30 something i hope to adopt and theres no way id ever say that. i even treat my adopted animals like my family, i cant imagine saying that to a person.
The fact that the so called “father” threatened his child to sleep in the hallway if he doesn’t put on a shirt he doesn’t want to put on is ridiculous, this is no way of discipline it is just GROWN adults being petty to what looks to be a 6-7 year old. And the behavior toward the child is horrible in general, even the pranks are cruel and usually end up becoming violent due to the dad extending it, such as, brothers bullying, punching, kicking, smacking and even slamming by the dad at some point. I’m truly hoping the mother gets custody of her children bc the way those “parents” yell at the kids is so ridiculous and sad and by the kids expressions it seems like they do it all the time!
Mila’s Studio She did get custody actually. Cody and Emma are safe with her.
-KayPr1ncess- 2.0 thank the lords!
It’s actually abuse, you can’t take away a child’s necessity. It’s literally against the law, how he wasn’t investigated before is beyond me.
God that poor kid. It makes me actually sick to see him cry and hear his dad treat him like this. That father needs to be in JAIL.
Agreed. Not to mention that his voice ticks me off, his expressions boil my blood even worse, his excessive punishments are so abysmal, I’m telling you. All those issues would cement this father as one of my most hated TH-camr in all of media.
Daddyofive doesn't consider Cody as a part of his family because he says this " I should downstairs decorating the tree with my family. But instead I'm dealing with YOU!!!!!!
I caught that too.
poor kid. :( i'd hug the heck out of that kid. he's so cute and you see his inside is so gentle and sensitive not like the older shit brute brothers. he deserves a lot better. Cody I hope you see this sometime: you deserved a lot BETTER. You got unlucky for being around psychopathic sadistic people. I hope you can become trully happy sometime.
holy shit i didnt catch that
viv drive Also note tho, the "older brute brothers" are only so violent and cruel to Cody because they naturally look up to their father. It's a learned behavior and they are rewarded and praised by the father, not only because Daddyofive verbally praises them, but he also rewards them by not targeting them, not yelling at them, etc. It's disgusting but it's not their fault they're so cruel. They learned it from their father.
Soccer Tube I'm glad I'm not the only one that caught that.
It really got me when he brought up the whole "you're doing terrible in school" and when Cody was saying he asked the teacher if he could go in the hall to work. That's what I did a lot in school. And it HELPS.
ODD tends to go hand in hand with ADHD too so that really stood out to me about him not being able to concentrate. And when they were saying that they didn't know what was wrong with him. Like ADHD or not their mother talks about them having special needs ... "don't know what's wrong with him" my ass, they didn't want to know. So glad they were taken away and I can only pray that he heals ...
and honestly, even if he was fucking around in school, he's fucking special needs. The father obviously doesn't know how to raise a normal child without abusing them, so how are we going to expect him to be sensitive to HIS OWN CHILD's special needs
Same dude same, it's difficult to focus in a classroom a lot when other kids don't want to be quiet and listen
Cody probably was getting attention in school due to his father's shitty youtube channel! Honestly, I can see why he would have such trouble. A child who isn't special needs would have issue with that.
Yeah some kids can’t focus with noise in the room. At my school we aren’t allowed to send kids in the hallway with no teachers so I have a basket with noise canceling headphones in my room for kids that need silence. And if needed then can work in the cubby area.
As someone with special needs, this is heartbreaking. It’s crippling to see how devastating it is to watch.
Not to mention that the redneck sounding father makes Peter Griffin look innocent.
8:40 he literally impulsively hit Cody’s arm and Cody’s lack of a reaction to it tells me he’s used to it. What a horrible father
Ok so, this is how Cody feels, imagine that you are minding your own business, in your room. But your room is in the scariest place on earth to you. And then your worst fear comes into your room and starts screaming and threatening you, you try to fight back but it just keeps yelling and screaming at you. You are powerless, no matter where you are, or what you do. You will always be the person in the wrong.
Thats how Cody feels.
Justice for Cody!! now God damnit!!
Thats how he will always feel. It will only get worse as he grows up.
yes and there is no escape. Youre right , I lived it, maybe you did too. Im so glad this world has a heart and a mind to know how horrific it is for a child abused in this way
The only good thing that came from the dad filming Cody's torment was that there was obvious proof that can be used to put them in prison
Even if he gets out of it, that won't stop. I still feel it, 4 years after therapy, court, and moving out. It's never gonna fully leave him. He's gonna have anxiety attacks randomly or due to loud sounds. And sometimes he's gonna have flashbacks and get fucked up over it.
Allowing a kid to pick up your child and slam him on the ground while laughing, isn't "punishment" if they dragged the kid by his hair and kicked him down the stairs, that's abuse, not punishment, the law is moronic
Those parents are shitty
Vertti Silventoinen yeah
people who hit their kids need to have their teeth kicked in, other wise how else are they gonna learn?
Atheist Reindeer well, true... now... bruh, I hate abuse
If A Kid Tried To Pick Up Undertaker Chances Are Their Back Might Get Broke
i can't imagine being a fully grown ass man talking and acting like an 8 year old who is constantly on the verge of throwing a temper tantrum. that young boy is so much more mature than him..
Cody's going to grow up and get back at his "dad" and that creature that calls herself a stepmother.
Revenge story. I’m interested in that.
Once that little boy started crying, I just felt horrible. I can't believe what I just saw. I hope the father goes straight to jail.
Puppet #daddyofive4prison
He didn't. He got probation.
My chest just feels so heavy it’s like I feel like since I can’t jump through this screen and kick that mans ass it’s making me cry
The slams on the arm killed me to watch. I hate these videos and I hope that guy doesn't get to see his kids until they're fully grown and can whoop his ass.
It was disgusting because the mother cheers on the other boy to harm him, instead of stopping him from doing it, and you just fucking know the dad is standing just off screen to wait to "reprimand" the bigger kid. I'm only just getting to the part of the video where she's disgustingly talking about the child that he's not acting like a normal kid and as if the poor kid isn't even human. You know she's lying when she says she'd miss him on that rip or whatever because of how she sounds. It sounds like she hates the poor boy and never wants to bring him on a potentially fun trip somewhere else!
Why is he forcing his kid to wear a shirt he doesn't like? That isn't even. . . discipline. There is no meaning behind forcing that. Outside of someone wanting some type of control.
My mom did it all the time. Because she was so desperate to make me girly
It's a power struggle the kid just wants to have control of something and his dad refuses to give him anything his dad wants him to be a mindless little puppet and any push back he gives is met with hostility
My mom used to buy me clothes i didn't like all the time. I always offered to go shopping with her to help show her my style but she didn't let me go through my phases. Let kids enjoy their phases.
How bout "I should be down there with MY FAMILY but instead I am dealing with YOU!"
@@nellrussellstarving_artist1215 right like he's not family poor little boy
I always come back to this video and it's made me realize that Cody is extremely smart. He stands up for himself at all times, he's very pronounced in the way he speaks, and uses logical points when his dad argues with him. He always gives a reason behind his point when he counters an argument and I think it's really impressive. I hope Rose and his real family see this too and encourage him to keep up with his talents and smarts, he really is very special and I'm glad he has a chance to flourish now.
That poor kid. It's not parenting, it's not discipline, it just humiliation and abuse.
My stepfather did similar things to me (to a much lesser extent). The feeling of utter powerlessness is painful to remember, I can't imagine how awful it must be to have that coupled with the knowledge that thousands of people are watching.
I’m so sorry you had to deal with an asshat like that. Hope you doing well today.
The guy is deleting the evidence, but the internet will always find a way.
Dannielle Mckoy Oh yeah, You know people have that saved.

9:47, they keep talking about how "bad" the boy is but when he tries to communicate what he needs in order to be "good," they ignore and yell at him. these parents had no intention of helping this child in *any* way.
He was actually surprisingly articulate like. When I kid says "I asked my teacher if I could work in private away from distractions" that's not a child who WANTS to be bad, that's a child who realizes there's an issue but has no power to change anything.
evil people. EVIL PEOPLE.
It's infuriating to see this, as someone who needed this kind of help and actually had parents that fought for a better way for me to be able to learn. It's disgusting to see a parent do the opposite and punish a child and tell him off for being a special needs kid. I think that "father" needs to refer to the words "the world doesn't revolve around you" on himself not the kid. Classrooms *should* be revolved around getting kids the proper focus they need in whatever way possible.
@@MallyMcAlli that was my exact line of thinking as well. They literally torture this specific child for fucking views and somehow people watch and enjoyed their fucking content. Any person that was a fan of these people deserve the same shit because chances are they are the same type of people.
This makes me so sad 😞
this is exactly what my dad did to me, only difference is he doesn't post it on TH-cam.
Your dad is awful.
@@7secouds607 he is, thank god I haven't seen him since 2017.

Hearing Cody explain how he wants to sit alone so he can do his work without interruption in class, and how his father screams at him and makes him cry because he's trying to be productive is just disturbing. I had to be reviewed in class in 2nd grade like Cody was (I had behavioral issues as well, but it was more childhood depression rather than ODD), and when I got a low score it was because I was trying to do things Cody did that the teacher didn't agree with. But, did my parents make me cry because of it? NO, they told me what I could do better next time so there wouldn't be any problems.
I know this is over a year old, but I hope this man has no custody over his kids anymore. I honestly hope he loses custody of all those kids, the stepmother included, because they are terrible people. Michael may be Cody's dad, but he will never be his father.
Cody and his sister are with their mom now, thankfully. The schools here accomadate my youngest a lot because he get's distracted easily in class. I work with him a lot at home as well so he can learn to concentrate better. Like running the vaccuum while he is doing homework. He does well as long as the TV isn't on. These so called parents though are discusting. They knew he had a problem but instead of getting him help they made things worse.
I have Autism but at least my dad doesn't record me and sometimes leaves me alone
He's so mean to his own flesh and blood. I can't. It makes me sick.
The pure hate i feel against the father and stepmom. . .
How the F can someone be so horrible at being a parent and still think they are doing it right?
I can't believe how awful some parents are
The Centalist "some"?
More like "most".
The Centalist yeah
Jordan Gallaher Maybe not most but quite a few.
The Centalist nor can I.....
But hey, the trauma's fuckin' worth is for those Snapchat followers.
I'm almost certain that there is physical abuse behind the scenes.
The body language and the way he backed up against the wall is a huge sign. A physically defensive position. The way he flinched when his dad moved.
Parmetries yeah I can tell too bleh >.< my dad used to yell at me all the time, I still sorta flinch sometimes
In my opinion, you're right. I was physically abused as a young adult (never by my parents or relatives so it was less traumatic IMO) and it took years (as a young adult) to stop acting like that. Years of trying to stop a reflex I seemed to have built up. He's a child. An innocent, special needs child. He's abused in every way one can be abused and they're taking away the evidence. I hope the mom has it all. It has to stop, he has to get help. I looked it up and they were making around $4.1K - $66.3K a *month* by abusing a special needs child. What the fuck! Maryland needs to re-evaluate their laws.
Parmetries he had bruises on his arms
Parmetries i hope they get em. but they dont smoke weed and arent black.
Parmetries and the way the dad giving Cody a nosebleed with it being literally nothing
Damn... That dad reminds me of my mom. And I cry when people yell at me too. I"m 36...
Melissa Hancock parents need to fucking do better wtf
As a parent I am seriously, seriously struggling to watch this. Just leave me alone with this "father" for a few minutes and I gaurentee he won't be abusing anyone ever again. Child or otherwise.
My heart breaks for that cute, beautiful, smart little boy. That little boy is a bigger man than that disgusting excuse of a father is
The kid is smarter than the father.
You can tell because he has goggles.
at least the kid has common sense
THAT'S RARE THESE DAYS
Random Person hey i have common sense, born in 2004 and got cancer in 2006, survived... im lucky honestly
to Jacob,
people are lucky to have common sense, but to survive cancer at a very young age, that is very lucky. Congrats.
-Jacob F. Nelson, almost the same exact thing for me, but I was born in 2008 and was diagnosed in 2010.
I had parents just like these people. You never grow up from it- I'm 23 and still flinch when I hear people yell or rush at me.
Its sticks with you. Abuse isnt a joke. Cody needs therapy asap and even then he will still be troubled when he grows up.
I hope you and Cody recover more than ever, I just hope every abuse victim can enjoy life forever.
i relate so much, the yelling and the getting in his face. makes me tear up knowing other kids have to go through what I did, knowing that it still affects me to this day. I didn't find out I had ptsd until this year, and my whole childhood was spent wondering if I was in the wrong or my father was. its just so messed up :((
literally it doesn't go away. im 21 now and id be staring at the screen at work and shit comes back to me and someone raises their voice and i can't handle it
Same...my mamaw claimed to be my mother alot whenever I was younger..she also grabbed my arm and threatened to break my arm one time because I told her I didnt want to live with her anymore and that I wanted to live with my mom.
Shes also the reason for my anger issues because I learned to just yell back because I didnt want to take it anymore.
So I just started yelling back at her when she yelled at me.
It caused alot of hits as well..
Same. Something helped me and I'm writing to you in the hope that it helps you too. When I was 17 and finally away from them I joined an MMA gym. I flinched a lot and jumped at loud noises and fast movements in the beginning but I stuck with it.I got injured quite a bit, but nothing permanent. I kept at it and eventually not even a fist at eye level made me flinch. I finally made friends. Having confidence in my physical abilities slowly built my mental confidence. Therapy didn't work for me, this did. Loud noises still make me jump, but because of all the practice, people don't move as fast as I thought they did when I was a child and I'm ready. I live a happy, successful life now it's the sweetest revenge.
7:37 it's a god damn shame a grown man letting anyone let alone his women/partner talk shit about his kids this man dont need to be a daddy-o-1
This is what my entire childhood was like
I'm now getting help for problems ranging from slight social awkwardness to doing really horrible things when i'm having a breakdown triggered by the pain of being abused. (saying stuff I know hurts, trying to hurt them as much as I can) I feel awful for times that happened. I wish I could take it all back. Everything i've said to people who had nothing to do with it.
He must feel like a real man bullying a child. This makes my blood boil. Wtf??
@Hey, man I’m 10 and same I’m so glad I have a good dad
you can tell just from looking at him that he would never try anything even close to this towards someone his own size, such a weak pathetic excuse of a ma- no of a human being
DwarfKing l know right
The videos are fake and there is proof. Cody thinks that y’all are stupid for thinking that he is being abused when he isn’t because the videos are FAKE. Emma spoke up about her bio mom and they didn’t want to go with her little less see her because in Emma’s words “rose is the abusive one”
@@jiminiecricket9044 links how about you give us sources.
Mom: i wish he acted like a normal kid
Me: i wish you acted like normal parent
Get this comment pinned now
NiNeTeeN yee
Or just ya know a parent.
not even his mum its a fat slag of a step mum
I was going to comment the exact same thing
This woman really just said "I wish he would act like a normal child". And it's not even her fxcking kid. As the mother of an autistic son I feel sick, and my heart is breaking right now.
I really hope that by now something was actually done and these kids aren't with these pieces of shxt anymore.
I'm 15 and I have 4 siblings yet I still parent better than daddyofive.
ok... they claim this is fake. there's no way in HELL these videos are fake. if they are, cody deserves a fucking oscar because his breakdowns were way too real
most kids can't cry on demand like that
even if it is fake slamming a child into the groung like that and practically breaking their fucking arm is fucked on its own.
kushbabyy they're trying to get out of hot water, Which by now is far too late :)
As an adult I can't cry on que like that
There's a video, don't know if they took it down yet, where they convinced Cody that he killed is older brother. Not only that, but then they pretended to call the police on him, telling him he was going to prison for killing his brother. The sheer panic in the child's eyes is heartbreaking.
Was going to link to the video, but they've taken down all of their videos except one. actually they seem to have privated all of them.
I want to adopt cody, give him a loving home and show him how strong he was
Last I heard him and Emma are back with their mum, so there is a happy ending to this.
@@SpiffingNZ yeah i know but still
I am happy they are with their mom and i hope they are all having a happy life
But he is so cute, maybe i just have strong mommy feelings because i have a baby boy lol
I do too! I wanna hold than bean and tell him that he’s loved and that I support him and he did nothing wrong, that communication and being heard is a good thing! His father is a narrsisistic pice of shit and that child deserves better! 😭
@@haruschingy9233 Wow, both of you are creepy as hell :/
@@amaravega838 .....how are they creepy?
This is how kids become 'murderers'. This is such a common problem I want to take in that kid and spoil him, although i wouldn't get him a pet.
I don't have kids but seeing him cry at 10:30 breaks my heart. This was a while ago, but I dearly hope this child is taken from this situation.
I was a kid with trouble learning too so I understand how hard it is for him. I know how it feels like to be told that nobody is going to help you when you can't handle things. I feel so much for this kid.
that part on the stairs made me so angry. this is a child with ADHD, as confirmed by the mother, who is trying to explain to his father why he cant concentrate, and the dad does not comfort him, he does not attempt to help him, instead, he yells at him, tells him it's all his fault and punishes him. all sympathy I still held is gone. this is child abuse
I recognized my childhood in that moment immediately. Cody said, "I had a good morning" and gets immediately yelled at. Then when he tries to explain himself, the dad doesn't even care, doesn't let him express his thoughts, and yells and berates him. textbook emotional abuse.
+Evelyne I still can't handle it when people are being unfair and unreasonable, I think it's much harder to just move on from it when it has happened in your past like this. I also hate it when this creates an emotional response in me and I end up fighting fire with fire
While I was watching it, I thought the same thing. I'm a mother of an ADHD child and before we found a psychologist who specialized in ADHD (He has AADD and has a daughter himself who is ADHD and almost a mirror image to mine, so personal and professional experience), this was EXACTLY how she acted. I heard the "People try to talk to me" so many times. I see my daughter in this boy, with how she used to struggle in school and emotionally while not understanding why it was a problem. This kid needs help and a supportive family who understands his problems, not one that berates him for something he mentally and physically can not control.
As someone with severe ADHD this makes my blood boil even more
That was the part in the video that I got really sad. Really upset and really sad. This is so ridiculous, I'm signing the petition and encourage you all to.
"I should be down stairs with my family! But instead I'm stuck up here dealing with you."
Nothing more needs to be said.
Wow, this is extremely difficult to watch.
Social worker here. I live in Tennessee, but I’m just gonna give some insight as to why children are left in abusive homes. It INFURIATES me and I promise that most social workers disagrees with a lot of laws in place. Myself and other social workers are working to change the laws, but it’s a long process. However, children are often left in abusive situations because the parents are often court ordered to do parenting classes, thus they leave the children in the home on the promise of attending parenting classes. There is also a shortage of good foster homes and shelters for them to go into. The system is broken and the children are the ones who suffer. I hope that one day it can be changed, but as of now preserving the family is the main goal of social services.
I just want to hug Cody and tell him that he is important, and that he does matter and that he is smart and sweet and kind and that nothing of what has been happening to him is his fault. This child should be surrounded by love but instead he is surrounded by hate. He is such an adorable kid, he deserves so much more.
Shard WalkerBait I know you're right. he needs to feel safe and listened to. The pain and betrayal in his eyes is too much. 😢😢😢 you know what else is messed up is how Cody is able to articulate what's happening. cody said he can't trust his dad, that he's being bullied for pranks, he even told his dad and his step mom that he knows they don't love him! isn't cody like 6yo?! I cannot understand how these people have subscribers and viewers.
+Nicole Marie it just breaks my heart this little boy should not be going through this! He is so intelligent and articulate, he needs to be in a supportive and loving environment. That family will never treat him the way he deserves to be treated. And the 'parents' (abusers) have the guts to say that he is exaggerating.... How can a CHILD fake those reactions..... Boils my blood to hear them flat out lie and make half assed apologies.
Shard WalkerBait me I feel so bad for him, I just want to hug that poor baby 😢 I hope his mom gets him and his sister back asap
kara burke I hope that can be the case! But we don't know the full story about his mother, and don't know what it would be like back with her... But none the less I hope he is put somewhere safe and sound with people who love, appreciate and support him. Whether that be with his biological mother (I hope) or somewhere else
I don't even care that I'm only 19 and from another country, I would fly all the way to America just to adopt him and take him to Disney land and buy him ice cream
Look at how rational the little kid is being. He has more logic in his little brain that both of the adults combined.
Hadi D. Kids are very perceptive.
He is an intelligent child. In a household like that, it makes him even more of a target. Infuriating.
He's acting and there getting deaththreates
Hope Rose gets the kids back.. This is fucked Up.... I'm so tired of this garbage..
Brandi Best awesome!! They need a wake up call!!!!
if i ever see the dad then i guarantee ill be going to prison for the unholy things id do to that man.
There is a reason i stayed single after my separation that my two sons don’t have to live like this.
That father is fucking insane, the tshirt clip says it all. He literally doesn't care what his son wears, he just wanted to yell at him and to control him
yep and him saying Cody was running HIS Holliday experience makes me think he cares more about himself than his kid..
nope
AMZ exactly. Drill instructor behaviour too "drop to your face and do pushups" like he's your son not a fucking recruit wtf
+Not Chosen nobody loves u
AMZ OMG THE VIDEOS ARE FAKEEE ITS NOT REAL NOT CHILD ABUSE!! It's the child's idea. STOP ASSUMING SHII
These people are disgusting.
Abuse is not acceptable and it's never funny.
The people who think those prank vids are okay sicken me.
Yeah, they're fucking disgusting. They actually had fans before claiming that the videos are totally fake (before first claiming that they're real, and then changing that story.) How the fuck is it okay to treat your kid like shit and then say its a prank?
I trust them, so I am apparently "sick?" If their apology videos are fake, then yeah I will be mad as shit. But as of now, I really do trust them.
Abdullah Waleed their shitty parents
Abdullah Waleed Not sure about sick, but you're definitely not right in the head if you're sympathizing with them. Naive too.
Andy Howe
Fucking shit they deserve no sympathy, but although we don't really have that much evidence they're lying (that I know of) about their apologies, I'll just trust them. But seriously though, sympathy is taken away from these freaks.
God, this hit close to home.... this kid’s saying everything I wish I could, but either way, there’s not much that can be done... I wish people would acknowledge children’s feelings and beliefs more, not entirely relying on the “I am the parent, you are the child” mentality
“decorating the tree with MY family” why not our? Or the family?
I hate how he said "with my family" and then said "but im here with you" it's disgusting how he doesn't refer to him as family.
my exact tought
I would not want to be in that family.
TGIR it's not even a family.
EmperorFrozenToes OH THX!
It reminded me of the "adoption prank" videos where he told Cody "Oh well this family needs me, it doesn't need you" like who says that to their own child?
There is another video that people overlook that could actually get the dad and mom arrested. On the MommyOfive channel there s a "prank" in which she and the eldest son pretend that the house is being invaded. Jake is made to pretend he is holding his mom hostage and the dad pulls out a gun and aims it at his sons head. This is child endangerment and can earn you a hefty prison sentence.
FlowerBoy Real gun??
I think that that's just what we need to get them away from these children.
FlowerBoy YES IVE SEEN THIS ONE AND I WANTED TO PUT MY HEAD THROUGH THE FUCKING WALL
ive seen it.... someone posted a comment on it saying they were calling the police and it was replied with: one of those feminist nazis again! The mentality of some people amazes me
Levi Woo because its easier to follow the herd. And human herds tend to be stupid and aggressive.
I’ll adopt him if no one else will...these people are horrible.
Repzion is such a kind soul.....We need more people like him
I'm surprised Cody has not attempted to assault them with a weapon
good job you would have ruined your life you know what would be better not kill them in their sleep but film the abuse and report to the police so they go to prison BUT im a do5 fan i forgive them but the things they did are just not right
If he did I'm pretty sure 99% of the internet would defend him
Like me
alice morgan and he might get charged as an adult and go to prison do u rly want that for him?
As soon as he is as big as his Dad, I'm sure he will snap on him. He just knows he's too small to win right now.
Evil trashy stepmom filming this abuse. Someone save Cody and Emma pleaseeeeeeeeee
Stephanie Beighle I wish I could adopt him the poor thing
Stephanie Beighle im 16 and could take better care of them both
My heart breaks for that poor baby 💔 I hope he's doing better now
Thankfully they've been with their mother ever since the year this all went down. As far as I know they moved to a new house. And are staying away from social media until this is all blurred out for the kids.
My god the 'father' has the vocabulary of a 3rd grader
As a resident of the state of Maryland, we do not recognize the father and stepmother as productive member of society
Faser Deluxe same
Agreed
Faser Deluxe agree
Now get those children some help.
As someone who is studying to be a teacher and wants to be a mother someday, I was so upset when he was yelling at him about school. No child should ever feel like that.
"Stop disrespecting me" Are you ACTUALLY shitting a brick on me? If anything YOU'RE disrespecting YOUR 'child' This is utterly insane and fucking heartbreaking. I'm about... idk... 3/5ths?? of the way threw this video and I've had to pause god knows how many times. How do you live with yourself every day doing shit like this?
I feel like the dad actually loves his kids. I really do. But I feel like he just doesn’t understand. (Just to be clear, I am NOT saying he isn’t at fault here. I’m just saying it looks like there’s some kind of really misguided kind of love. I do not have experience with all this so take what I’m saying with a fucking mountain range worth of salt.) The stepmom CLEARLY doesn’t love him, and as a matter of fact she clearly hates him. She is just as much at fault as the dad, but she has motivation that’s WAY different from him. They’re both awful and don’t deserve children. I just feel like they’re both massively fucked up and the dad has a CHANCE to be an ok father who visits his kids and has no custody whatsoever. The stepmom seems like she’s a fucking Disney villain. I hope that Rose got her kids back and I hope that everyone watching this is ok
Yes massa the white massa deserved it I go to the feild now sorry massa
@@xxxtentacionnick9077 tf
"I should be downstairs decorating the tree with my family" not our. MY family. He excluded this child from their family by just one word and this just shows the extent of this abuse. If he actually cared for his child, he'd say our family
Kid: That's not my shirt, I don't want to wear it.
Normal parents: Okay.
~
Kid: That's not my shirt, I don't want to wear it.
Insane People: Write 500 sentences, do pushups, sleep in the hallway, you're ruining my day.
my mother is insane
No, physical abuse can be useful. It shoes who is boss. In that case. But for entertainment is fucked up. I was belted when I was a child. I agree with belting as it makes the child know who's boss but pranks have no meaning which is wrong. For example, say I had a son and he took drugs with friends, then I would belt him so he wouldn't do it again. The pranks are not teaching him anything. You hate being abused but when you turn into an adult you will understand.
Ragiru The Salad Yes, that's what I meant.
Tvelok I am not with this Daddyfromhell guy no I'm just saying violence used for discipline is effective and if done right makes the child respect you. Edit= yes, there is no gain to the parent in that case as it makes the child fear him for no reason.
Tvelok Oh, sorry I thought you were talking about my comment I made. You didn't specify a person so how could I have known?
Disgusting. My heart hurts watching this. I hope he is in better hands now. This is horrific. Poor child is so smart and deserves to be watered.
i came from a home where my mom and dad acted exactly like this and i just feel so bad for the kid. the push-ups. the sentences. the threats. the counting down. the kid is clearly so uncomfortable and hurting so bad. the “setting an example” and humiliating them just for fun. this is abuse.
"I should be decorating the tree with my family." Hes basically saying that he isnt apart of the family.
bluesyleader caught onto that too, was wondering if anyone else heard it. So sad. Even though it’s just a short simple sentence it has a strong impact that I’m sure Cody caught onto.
It honestly made me cry when Cody was trying to tell his father his problems in school and his father was being so horrible to him and you could just see Cody scratching himself because he was so upset honestly I hope he can get put into a loving family that will help him through his problems
Meme Queen seriously though like this young kid is actually trying to do well in school. I don't know a lot of 9 year olds who actually care about school. He's a good kid
It hurts me too, it makes me honestly feel grateful that Cody and Emma are away from the rest of them.
Some new stuff about DO5:
- They have a TikTok, and appears they had another kid who looks 3 or 5 years old now. Only hoping they learned their lesson and leave that kid be, be actual responsible parents for once.
- Mike is a SoundCloud rapper, so is Jake. I kid you not, they’re even wearing Durags at times. It’s hilarious.
- Heather and Mike still insisting that they were lied about online and that were wasn’t any abuse.
Like you can debate which parent is worse, but the videos of Cody being thrown around, crying, screaming, his stuff being destroyed (especially a project he made and a card from his mom, leaving him to cry and say his family doesn’t care about him. It broke my heart to see), and the list goes on.
Don’t say it’s “kids being kids”, “boys will be boys”, or “it’s a skit” because there was no line drawn. These kids were being exploited and going through torment and humiliation for clicks, which is not okay.
Hope Cody and Emma are doing better after all this. ❤️
[Edit] Bad news, Mike Martin is back on TH-cam. They have a new channel “The Martin Family”. 😒
I grew up with very severe ADHD. I struggled in school, socially, and at home. my parents were not perfect, but they tried their best. I feel so deeply for this boy. I hope he is in a much better situation now ❤
Cody made me cry. He looked so broken and devastated. I wish he was left to a much better family...poor kid.
I actually cant look at them abuse the child
He's so small and precious how could anyone make him cry all kids deserve the world from their fathers and mothers
StyloWantsSonic YT seeing him yell at him for not being normal at school made me break down, having been diagnosed with a mental disorder late in my life only came after years of mental and physical abuse for not being normal, this shit makes me absolutely writhe
I started crying when I saw Cody trying to explain himself. These people are fucking sick.
J. E. R. R. Or maybe you are just stupid for believing it's real
ok_brandon98 I highly doubt I'm the stupid one here. Care to explain how it's fake?
how fortunate you are that you have never experienced abuse. kids aren't capable of 'faking' those reactions, that body language, etc... to that degree.
explain the bruises on his arms lol
Oblivionic you have no idea what my life is like
The kid seems so smart and makes points more intelligently than the adult father. At that age I would not have been putting up with it and trying to communicate as well as he does
Through this whole video I just wanted to go over there and give that boy a hug and tell him I'm so sorry. When I was younger my dad abused me and now as a young adult it still has huge impact on how I am today. Despite any mental disorders and a morbidly disgraceful father, Cody is so strong through it all and just doing his best. I really hope these kids get out of this situation soon and into the care of a different parent and support of therapy/counselling. This just hurts my heart so bad seeing this 'dad' yelling at him for the smallest thing like wearing a shirt.
The dad is literally a bully towards his kids, why is he ever allowed to be a parent
Many reasons. Like Repzion said, you can get a bad judge that can play favoritism for no reason other than they want to
He has a 1 year old brain. *duh?*
Wtf? Corporal punishment is a swat on the butt to get a kid's attention immediately when they're doing something dangerous and not listening; throwing a child onto the ground is NOT corporal punishment.
Trace Keene-Latham i agree with punishing your kids cause otherwise you get people like DO5 who think they can get away with everything.
Yelling at a kid for a flipping shirt is not corporal punishment its abuse
Yelling at a kid for misbehaving and then explaining whats wrong after the moment and moving on is not
Trace Keene-Latham facts but who should go to jail
Trace Keene-Latham agreed!!!!
THANK YOU! Someone gets it!
When I get extremely upset i.e panic attacks, anxiety, and extreme anger, sadness, etc, I start scratching and rubbing my forearm. I don’t know I’m doing it. It’s a involuntary thing. I got bad news from the doctor once and began doing it. They explained it’s a common thing done in response to emotional situations for many people. It’s NOT HEALTHY. Many doctors don’t consider it self harm in the normal sense, because it’s not intentional. You don’t realize you do it. But it’s a sign that something it wrong. Cody does it. Often. Like...fuckin insanely often.
Whenever I hear Cody crying it just... breaks my heart and makes me want to cry.
