Sell me your YouTube channel for my son. You don't deserve it.

Now, thankfully, those words weren't said to me, but they were said to this unlucky YouTuber.

This is entitlement at its very best.

A couple of years ago, my YouTube channel had reached 96,000 subscribers.

I hadn't been uploading much because my mum had been killed. Oh man. I still don't

upload much as I can't get past what happened. I tried grief counselling, but it was useless.

Anyway, I looked at my emails and saw an email from someone wanting to buy my channel and to send

him information and he would give me a value of what it is worth. Seriously. I ignored the email.

I got another email from the same address a few days later saying he wanted to buy my YouTube

channel and what did I want for it? I gave a quick, it's not for sale response and I forgot about it.

I got a long email back saying he wanted my channel for his son. He wanted his son to receive the play button.

He deserved it. He went on and on about how it would change his son's life and give him the confidence that he needed.

Something for him to be proud of, etc. I wrote back that it wasn't for sale and his son needed to do what I did and work up his

channel over years because the play button wouldn't mean anything to him because I'd done nine

years of work to earn it. He wrote back that I was an entitled C-U-N-T. I didn't deserve my

success. He said my channel was failing. Because I had a notice on my YouTube

channel that my mum had been killed and I wasn't replying to comments, he had read it and asked me

if I had killed my mum. I blocked him. My mum was very proud of me for building up my YouTube channel.

When I did receive my play button, it meant nothing to me because I couldn't

show it to her. My mum and I spent years in hiding because of my violent father. It was always the two of us.

I'm trying to get back to a new normal. I know that is what mum would have wanted. But even if I can't,

I will never sell my channel. It meant so much to my mum. She used to think up some good ideas for it. I mean, what an absolutely ridiculous start to this episode. What a crazy story. First of all, I have to just say this. I'm so sorry to you, O.P. To hear what happened to your mom. That is just ridiculous. I mean, that's just horrible.
