All the people in the thread saying Nick has never presented himself as some trad-cath religious person; he's talked on his stream about teaching Sunday School to the youth in his local church. He's talked about going to religious events and how fulfilling it is. If you think the Kiwis on the thread saying, 'lol, degenerate' are being uptight prudes, that pales in comparison to how the members of his congregation are likely to react when this comes to their attention. He's talked about a kid in his homeschool co-op class asking him questions about his youtube channel, it's certain that the people in his church know about his online presence or will someday find out about it.
He has to know that being openly degenerate will have repercussions for him and his children in the communities they are a part of IRL. I kinda wonder if something already happened in those communities to make losing them not as big a threat. If he was acting improperly with the nanny and the nanny was a church girl, they might already be on the outs with their religious community, meaning that Nick and LR no longer feel like there's a personal cost to flaunting their degeneracy. Nick could be thumbing his nose - not only at the prudes in his own audience - but to those church people who dared to judge him.
Whatever's going on, it's incredibly selfish. His kids are going to bear the stigma of this the rest of their lives. Church moms and most homeschooling moms are going to look askance at degeneracy. They might not rally the troops against him, but they're likely to not be willing to send their kids over to play with Nick's children at his house, and perhaps even not allow Nick's kids over at their house to play. When people have already breached the lines of privacy with their sexual behavior, you really don't know when they're going to stop. You can't have confidence that they won't expose your kids to that. He's been all 'MAPS go on the wall,' but there's still going to be room for doubt about what kids would be exposed to.
