Afraid of people finding out I make youtube videos

If you are afraid of your own family finding out you make videos and possibly slagging you, then how will you deal with other people out there?

I'd rather have outsiders who don't even know me laugh at my stupidity than someone I actually know. That's just one of the worst feelings in the world.
 
I think you should go for it!
I'm a bit self conscious about filming when my roommate is home too, because she'd hear me randomly speaking in English, lol. But your family should support you and if they don't then they shouldn't expect you to do that for them either.

I say follow your dreams and just do it, might take some time to get used to it but as you get older it's easier to regret things you did then things you didn't do.

Hey ther3alg4ming;
I know where you're coming from. I still live with my family and I'm embarrassed to film when they're around. The vast majority of your personality is formed during your childhood, then the next largest phase is your adolescence. I'm willing to bet your family has been critical of you for trying new things before, right? Here's the thing: that criticism, from a young age and from two years ago, is shaping your personality. I admire your courage for goinug ahead anyway and making videos. You can't let their criticism control you for the rest of your life. It won't just be for making videos either. You'll subconsciously be afraid of doing anything new or exciting. So that said, you're obviously going after what you want anyway (awesome man!).
The fear and embarrassment aren't just affecting your videos, it's affecting everything. You can't just get over the fear of making the videos. You have to attack the heart of the problem and that is the critical nature of your family. You're already doing your videos, good, keep that up. But start doing new things ALL the time! Anything your family thinks is stupid, go and do it anyway. Make a list. And make sure they know. Do EVERYTHING you're afraid of. Go talk to the cute girl in class. Stand up to people who are mean to you. You need to grow courage and conquer all of your fears. Make their criticisms worthless. Believe in yourself. You don't have to do anything big all at once. Start small and keep going. As you grow stronger from facing your fears your family will come to respect your for your courage, and if they don't then whatever. It's easy to sit back and criticize, it takes guts to go after what you want.

That I dont mind
 
Don't be afraid to do what you want to do, as long as you're not breaking any laws or rules (I don't know how old you are). Sometimes people criticize because they can't make anything creative and cool like you are doing. You need to bolster your confidence and hanging out on this forum will help!

thank you
 
My parents don't know that I'm making youtube videos, so what I'm doing is filming them when I'm home alone. I know the exact times when they're away so I can know how long I have. You could try to get a hold of their schedule and film during those times.
