Family channels are the new wave on YouTube, with many groups, such as the \u201cACE Family,\u201d boasting millions of subscribers for giving viewers an inside look at their daily lives. The Lannings, known by their online moniker \u201cDaily Bumps,\u201d are one such family channel, having amassed over 4.96 million subscribers thanks to their videos and original music. However, it\u2019s not Lanning family patriarch Bryan\u2019s new four-song EP that\u2019s sparking outrage over the family: instead, internet users are collectively mocking a video the group uploaded on January 29, which included a reaction to their oldest son Oliver\u2019s report card. The video in question, since retitled \u201cLETTER FROM THE PRINCIPAL!\u201d features mother Missy Lanning reading Oliver\u2019s grades aloud, which included scores for his behavior with other students as well as projects in the classroom. (Segment begins at 6:10 for mobile readers) https:\/\/youtu.be\/G9_ET1U_dmE?t=370 While the vast majority of Oliver\u2019s grades were positive, the video has since gone viral across Twitter, with users noting the ridiculousness of using a child\u2019s grades for content that will be viewed online by millions. \u201cImagine coming home with your report card and your parents do a react video,\u201d reporter Taylor Lorenz said of the upload. https:\/\/twitter.com\/TaylorLorenz\/status\/1222557858576916484?s=20 Her Tweet caught fire across the social media platform, with other commenters weighing in with such takes as, \u201cOliver\u2019s parents might want to consider the videos Oliver will be recording about them when he\u2019s a teenager.\u201d \u2026Oliver\u2019s parents might want to consider the videos Oliver will be recording about them when he\u2019s a teenager\u2026 \u2014 Mark Vang (@chmod777Mark) January 29, 2020 Still others were concerned about the mental impact this could have on family vloggers\u2019 children in the future, with one user writing, \u201cImagine the damage we\u2019re doing to our children by parading them all over the internet without their consent.
