Publisher's Summary

Attempted murder victim told the Brainerd Dispatch she believes her sixteen-year-old son saved her.

This is the news article detailing the event that would drastically change Tyler Zed's life and that of his family forever.

Growing up in a small town in Minnesota, Tyler and his two brothers filled their days with chaotic fun, from playing hockey to building forts to making their own home movies. The household was also full of addiction and abuse that ultimately led to their father attempting to murder their mother on Christmas Eve 2007.

Trailer Park Parable follows Tyler and his family before Christmas Eve 2007, the events leading to that night, and the years afterward. It trails the boys as they deal with varying degrees of PTSD and their own battles with addiction, before they eventually turned their creative coping mechanisms, like their YouTube channels, into million-subscriber successes.

From living in a trailer park to running a multi-million-dollar business, Trailer Park Parable highlights a true, American-dream story, countering a popular narrative that tells us you may as well not even try, the system is rigged against you.

Meet the man behind Zeducation

Was very relatable, and reminded me a lot of my childhood. My only gripe would be it felt it ended before the main crux of the story had come to a close. His relationship with his father. I do understand that at the end he had his epiphany, and that he had to say to himself that he forgave him. But that’s only part of if, you need to confront him and say it to him. That doesn’t mean you ever have to see him again, or have anything else to do with him. But you never know what the future holds and I’d take that opportunity before… maybe one day you no longer have the opportunity to do so. But that’s only my opinion, and you know what they say about opinions.

Will end with I do appreciate it, as someone who if a fan of the channel the insight into your life. And to reiterate and makes you more relatable. 5 stars, and all the best 🙏🏻

The depth into the makings of a man

As a follower of Zeducation it was amazing to get this in depth look into the makings of a man. The jumping back and forth really felt like you were in the moment with Tyler, knowing that no story is as simple as this is how it happened. So much of life’s little events and things we may not really pay attention to at the time end up playing a huge role in how our life plays out and the choices we make. With the world going as mad as it is it’s humbling to listen to a story about heart and growth, not victimhood. Thank you Tyler for such a great book!!
