Not currently but we did go through a Mr. Beast phase during covid.

My husband and I like watching his videos. Only have a toddler for now, she finds them boring and prefers cocomelon.

Yes me! I once let my kids watch one but not anymore I decided it’s not appropriate.

My boys like it but I also cut it off once the trans thing started.

I would allow it if Chris didn’t transition

Only have a baby now but I don’t see myself ever allowing it

ETA I would allow older teens +

Kids used to until the friend came out as trans. I always found Mr. Beast annoying anyway (though otherwise harmless. Until the trans thing happened)

My sons watch it, and I think it's terrible to watch someone waste hundreds of thousands of dollars and destroy expensive things just for the fun of it. But they love it. If I decide they can't watch it anymore, they will be very upset for a while, so I haven't done it yet, but I am debating if I need to or not.

I had to do this after Covid with multiple shows and it was HARD. But we got through it
On YouTube my kids are allowed to watch Dude Perfect, and not really any other channels. They can also watch crafts, cake decorating, Lego building, Jewish music... but not just regular shows

I agree - it shows terrible values - my kids ( teenagers) tell me how generous he is with money etc., It’s been an ongoing discussion/ friendly argument Smile where I make known what my opinion is.
That said, it’s not something that I ever prohibited . It was actually nice how my 3 teenagers bonded over it.
Anyway, they outgrew it.

My teens and preteens watch it. I have no interest.

I wasnt thrilled about the guy who transitioned but I honestly dont think Jimmy was thrilled about it either. He had to come out in full defense of Chris or risk being cancelled. So while it would have taken courage to do so, I can recognize that his livelihood was on the line and its not an easy thing to ask someone to do. I also noticed that they dont ever get political so even with the guy whose getting feminine, they never address it and its just sort of there. My children are not sheltered and they know about LGBT so watching this show wont change anything.

Im noticing my kids are outgrowing it anyway.

I think he actually gives millions of dollars to charity and does a ton of good things so I can forgive the crazy stunts. Hes providing entertainment and making money by doing it so its not technically a waste.

What about Mark Rober? Similar kind of fun, but he's a former NASA engineer, so his stunts are based in actual science and the kids will learn some things.
