A lot of his earlier videos and skits were inspired by Fred, Makemebad35, and Smosh so that's why they are goofy and seemingly cringe at times. His family didn't really give a shit about what he did or how he felt or anything of that nature. His mom knew about "cartoons" but that was as far as Randy explained to her. He filmed when everyone was gone, so they wouldn't have had to check on anything other than him editing videos.They probably hadn't seen any of his videos aside from maybe a few before the shooting happened.
