Ugh, I used to follow a wildlife channel. The head of their YouTube had a kid, and then every other video was her repeating "can you say jackal?" over and over and OVER. I'm here for wildlife videos, not to watch your kid ignore the camera getting shoved in their face. But everyone was super positive towards the first kid video and she thought it was encouragement. For shame.

And of course head of youtube did youtube things. "Cute kid video" costs pennies on the dollar compared to capturing and editing wild life videos. So even if they got a measly 10% of the views they probably saw it as good business.
