Dougherty Dozen Shades D's Bio Mom While She Spends 10's Of Thousands On His Birthday! 

Imagine if she put $30,000 towards D’s education. Crazy how materialistic they are.

I was adopted at birth and my mom always told me that my birth mom loved me so much that she did the most unselfish thing a parent could do. Now I know that I was one of three children adopted at birth because I guess she didn’t learn her lesson the first time but anyway, I really appreciate my mom raising me to think the best and not grow up with a negative attitude surrounding my adoption.

its crazy bc as someone who works in childcare, she is always ALONE. normal kids would be all over everything she’s doing begging to help or participate. no way in hell i could wrap a single gift without 4 kids walking up to me begging to help. shes ALWAYS alone even when her kids are there

I feel so bad for James, I just wanna adopt him and give him the love he needs. Also if I were one of the foster kids, I’d be selling all the extra crap she buys and saving the cash to be able to take with me when I left.

You notice that D wants all fast food for his birthday. He doesn’t like Alicia’s cooking. 🤣🤣

May DeShawn and Neveah be reunited, and their mother get back on her feet.

If that is what Alisha will say on camera about D’s mom, imagine what she’s saying about her in private, in front of him. That is parental alienation, and potentially sibling alienation too

D thanked them for every present and was excited about his clothes and items. When he opened the shoes, he was like “another pair?!” He was super surprised and it seemed like he was like wow that’s a lot. I think that was fast forwarded through. His bio mom is responsible for him being grateful and saying thank you. He’s a good kid…not from any of her doing!!

One thing I learned in my foster parent classes is that you don’t talk negatively about your children’s family, because everyone sees themselves as a reflection of their family and vise versa in some aspect. It’s always good/OK to validate your children’s feelings - if THEY want to say they feel bio mom is “mean” or has a mean heart etc., then there are affirming ways to validate that. “Thanks for letting me know that’s how you feel, I absolutely understand why you’re saying that, I see what you mean. Just know, you are made from love and came from love and are still so, so loved.” Something like that. Her dumbass “you is kind you is smart” affirmation shit is not where it’s at. Happy CHRISTMAS season!! 🎄🎅🏼❄️

This makes me so proud of my 4 kids, we've been so broke that I couldn't afford shoes for myself n I'd have to wait for them to be home to go shopping so I could wear their runners, and now that some of them are in their mid 20s they said they NEVER felt poor ❤, they were always appreciated even a 5 dollar gift from the dollar store. My husband works his but off to keep food on the table and I had to retire to be home for our extra needs child, seeing lush waste so much and we struggle to keep food in our home is so sooo sad 😢

Watching this makes me appreciate my parents even more, for having "nights to stay up" for each of us 7 kids - each of us got to stay up late and have uninterrupted time with them for board games, ice cream, whatever. Oh, and letting each of us pick a night performance at the Minnesota State Fair to attend alone with just them🤗🌌 It didn't occur to me until I was older that nights to stay up with 7 kids left them without a night off😬

James deserves so much better. Alisha does him no favors. Especially the food she buys and serves.

I commented on the birthday video that this was "sinful shopping". Amazed that some called me jealous of her being rich. Alicia is rich from selling her kids on the internet , without their consent. Making underage children work from their home (that should be a place of sanctuary). Who would be jealous of that? Alicia is a Sinful Shopper in every sense of the word.

It is so sad when patents use their kids for money but it is even more sad when adoptive parents use their kids grief and rocky past and expose it for “fame”

We don’t love you because of your gifts, but we appreciate them a lot thank you. My granddaughter sent me this text, this year. She is 13. I felt blessed that she told me that.

The reflection of the ring light in the television while D was opening his presents says everything about how Alusha’s kids process their gifts-they prob feel uncomfortable because they know they r being filmed for her-not them or memories. She’s robbed them of feeling true gratitude and self-esteem

The most shameful thing she's done is broken up a sibling group 😢 that right there tells she she doesn't give a crap about kids!

That comment putting down his bio mom made me want to throw up. That was plain cruel

Yet no working toilets? A house that needs major work. She is the definition of a priority failure.

We have an old couple as neighbors that always bring us vegetables from the garden every year. They even brought over Halloween goody bags for my kids because they weren’t going to be home for us to trick or treat at their house.

I just dont understand why she wont spend her money on her home

I think she bought him a dog to make him feel anchored to their house. If he leaves he won’t be able to take the dog. Everything she does it out of selfish greed never for the wellbeing of the children. Real parents make hard choices in the best interest of their kids even when it means saying no. Alicia doesn’t parent - she houses kids and teaches them horrible habits that include being dependent on her. Gross

not only is she a bad mother she is a bad human

Thousands on football game, thousands on dog flown out, thousands for food for 2nd party, thousands for more birthday gifts Absolutely ridiculous….

Id love to see a video comparing the kids birthdays! I’ve watched all those individuals in the past, but I think it would be interesting to have like one of each kid compiled into one video to compare how he treated each one differently!

She loves her chickens so much because all they care about is food 😂 They speak the same love language as Alicia 😂

Her new son? Like she just collects kids and got him on sale at the store recently 💀 She’s unhinged.

There is a family vlogger on here called "life with beans" and they have nine kids with one on the way making ten. Anyhow, each birthday the kid gets one thing to wear, one thing to eat(example- special birthday meal usually homemade plus a small cake), one thing to read and one they they want and one thing they need. That's it. And each time these kids are so thankful and excited for their gifts and the other children are excited for the birthday child. Then they usually go to a park or museum and that's the day. Same with Christmas. These kids are some of the most gracious, happy loving kids. They don't have all this tech and tvs. They read tons of books, have tons of intellectual toys that stimulate their mind and also fun toys like play kitchen etc. They have gotten big gifts for Christmas which is for example little scooters, tennis rackets etc. These kids play with their items time after time on video and are always taken to parks, libraries museums. The parents feed them such wholesome meals and snacks. It's so different from Dougherty dozen

It’s strange how she’s said she wants to be good terms with the bio families of the kids she’s adopted, she lets them see the kids, yet she’s constantly throwing them under the bus by talking about what they’ve done in the past, flexing how much money she has, giving the twins’ bio parents her old disgusting tree, basically alienating D and N against their mom. She is so gross, those homes may have been unsafe and unstable, but she’s not helping the kids AT ALL. She’s not even caring for her bio kids who also have issues but she only cares about the money they make her. HEINOUS

I was so upset and disgusted when she made those comments

Her only moment of happiness is when she's shopping alone, that's a fact.

Josh I was literally listening to this video in the car when I was the victim of an attempted car jacking in front of my house where they literally shot at me while my 11 month old was in the car with me. I cant believe i lived through this. Just wanted you to know you were a part of my life during one of the scariest moments

Did you see when she talked about how much she missed the chickens……. Not her husband or her kids. The chickens 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️😂

I have 5 children, and I could NEVER treat them differently or favor one more than the other. A good parent loves their children equally & treats them equally. Makes me sick that she behaves like this towards her kids & hurts my heart, and she’s doing these kids no favors by spoiling them like this, because it doesn’t teach them the value of working hard for things you want, and to be proud when you save & buy those things 😞 She’s a pos & horrible person and should never have been allowed to adopt or take in any children, because there’s no way they aren’t aware of her exploiting these kids, and that makes them just as bad. I was adopted at birth and wanted for nothing as a child, but my parents work so hard, and showed me how to work hard & make it on my own, and that’s the best thing you can do for your children so they’re ready when it’s time to fly the nest.

Back when I was in 3rd grade my bio mom was actually around that year… she threw me her 1st and only birthday party… we invited a few kids from school. I was made fun of because she served kool aid instead of soda. That was 36 years ago. I still feel the feelings I felt that day. For myself and for her she didn’t do much for my brother and i but she did her best that day but was made fun of by 9-10 year olds because she couldn’t afford soda for a bunch of children. But know that was the one and only time she tried to put one of her kids first for a change is sad…. Her saying that crap about her adopted kids or foster kid’s parents is disgusting and so hurtful forever. It will not only make the parents feel bad but that child will carry that as well.

It’s my daughters 14th Birthday today and she got a pair of Dunks, some socks, body spray and exercise band! She was thrilled and grateful….the excess these kids deal with is insanity and I can’t wait till she comes crashing down from this spending Bs

Your absolutely right. She’s a angry piece of soul. She tries to rub things in faces, like see , you should have stayed. The lush can’t stand any one wanting to leave her “gorgeous “ presence

$30K on 14th birthday…imagine the vehicle he is going to get for his 16th 🙄🤦🏻‍♀️

Christmas was a discusting materialistic nightmare too. Most the kids didn't even say thank you except for James. And those mini fridges???? How ridiculous!!!

I took my girls shopping for each other when they were littles. They were always so excited to pick a gift for each other. At Christmas I took them to buy gifts for aunts, uncles and cousins. We have a very large extended family so a trip to the dollar store for this shopping was all I could afford but I was able to tell them they could pick anything they wanted in the store. It makes good kids when they are involved like that.

My son is so thankful and sweet when he gets anything and it is so sad to see these kids.

I’m from Rochester and my mom always grilled in to our head be great full for what you receive no matter if it’s small or big be grateful it’s said that this family doesn’t know the meaning of being happy for what they get not everyone is as rich and wealthy to afford stuff like that

When I was about 14 I was really into Bam Margera, I had also mentioned to my Mum that I didn't want much for easter because chocolate had been making me feel sick. I woke up to an Element hoody instead of eggs that easter. It was my very first ever name-brand piece of clothing. I remember thinking Mum must have spent a whole paycheck on just me. Looking back now it probably cost around $50 but it meant so much and Mum knew what to get, not because it was on trend but because she listened to me when I spoke to her.

my heart breaks for her other kids that she doesn’t spend 30k on for their bday. what also makes me sad is that everyone is always around when opening presents but not one person was on bree’s bday when she opened hers. those kids are going to have a rough life because they teach nothing. just constantly give them everything. buying someone’s love only goes so far till it doesn’t anymore. but for her to make that comment, was so uncalled for. but again she did on purpose cause she wants the reactions from people. she most certainly has favourites and isn’t shy about showing that either.

These kids have zero idea what normal is anymore because she has given this screwed up reality where you get thousands of dollars in presents for nothing. They have no idea what it means to be grateful because they aren’t taught that. We would get like one bigger present for Christmas and maybe two or three little things, and there would be a big family gift like a new computer. These kids would be so much better off they just spent the day with them, showed them love, and kept it simple.

What a disgusting woman to speak that way about D’s mom 😢so gross!!

Could you imagine putting that money into a fund for them when they grow up! They could live off the interest.

kids aren’t dumb they know love is superior to bribing this will backfire for sure

My mom used to schedule my dentist appointments the day after Halloween- it still is my nightmare LOL

If J doesn't have his own room, then he's probably sharing with D and little B, because the twins are sharing a room now. That poor kid.

I feel so sorry for the kids she doesn't favour (Z, Bo and J being just a few)😓 Imagine the Christmas presents will be over 100k at this rate. These kids won't get the excitement opening their Christmas present cause what could they possibly have left to want or need, such a shame. 😞👎

I was wondering why James as the second oldest didn’t get his own room but D does? It doesn’t seem right. They are so fortunate to have James he’s such a great young man I just with they could see that.

I was feeling down, but thank you for giving me motivation to start decorating for Christmas 😆 nice to take my mind off things while listening to a good snark, and decorating!

She did a halloween short w/ Dash dressed as Gordon Ramsey. I feel like he was also channeling his inner Josh. I was dying because what he was saying was 100% true, but she thought it was just jokes. 😂😂

My daughter just turned 38, and when I add up all the stuff I probably ever got her for her birthdays they don’t add up to $35,000. I never had that kind of money. But I do have the best girls in the world who love me because I’m me.

She went to LA because she is part of RU-vid shopping program. She said she's been in the program for some time and that her channel is not a family channel, but a shopping channel. She shares this in the video where she is unboxing the bag she received at the event.

I feel like she is subtly trying to tell the world that she has adopted him without actually coming out and saying it. In one of her shorts, she posted all of the years she was pregnant or adopted a kid and she had 2023 on it.

I’m mid 30’s and to this day my parents fill my stocking and I still get excited over it. (Always has chapstick, nail polish remover, my fav candies etc.)

I agree what do these kids need for Christmas? They literally get everything they want how can they want for anything else?? It’s mind blowing to me.

I agree with you Josh. That comment she made in reference to past birthdays really reflects her true character. This woman has claimed she is a Christian yet I see no Christ like values reflected in her or in what she teaches her children and those in her custody. I also agree about spoiled, entitled rich kids, but I also have to say that I know many wealthy folks who would NEVER indulge their children to this degree. These kids will have no understanding of the value of a dollar or to appreciate things. There is something very wrong here - I feel like she is searching for meaning or something because there is an emptiness with her that I can’t quite put my finger on. But it’s strong and even pervades through her social media channel. Honestly, she needs prayer. I’m going to try to pray for her as the spirit leads, but I thinks she is sad. Also sad that’s she is such a poor steward of the wealth dropped into her lap…

Im new here! But I did go back and binge watch a ton of the old snark videos and I CANNOT WAIT for this years snarkmas! Let's goooo! you are hilarious

Josh, you are such a good dad. I understand what it’s like to grow up with very little too. I believe when people like us become parents one of three things happen. These are: they become great, loving parents. They do not have children, or they pass along the abuse and dysfunction. You are one that’s overcome so much and are an awesome human. Kudos to you and Kathy

Nana, that SOB takes the gift bags home! lol

I cant believe she said that about the birthdays he's had in the past. My jaw dropped! You dont have to be a parent to know you cant say stuff like that. It's horrible!

I hate to say it but DAYSHAWN IS THE CHILD THEY ALWAYS WANTED, BUT NEVER HAD!

This is how she "proves" her worth to these kids. She has to buy them coz she cant spend actual time with them

3 pairs of 'Hey Dudes' as we are going into winter...

This vlog reminded me of my own family way too much. My parents have a favourite child: my brother. I am the first born (girl) and my brother has always gotten everything he wanted and more. He never had to work or do chores or anything to get what he wanted. My parents taught me to give all of my things to other people and to be ready to be disappointed because you can’t get everything in life. My parents separated me and my brother and our relationship was ruined by my parents when I turned 14. They kept us apart so much that now at 25 I don’t know what he likes, who he really is. We don’t talk.. nothing. I hope D and N won’t end up like me and my brother. This whole giving gifts, talking badly about the mom, separation of the siblings that is so disgusting. I never realised that they separated us this badly and treated us completely differently (I was neglected and abused) before I went to therapy now as an adult. My mental health problems were a huge shame to my parents and they didn’t want me to “ruin” my brother. I heard that N had some troubles too so this just gets way to familiar …. Also the fact how Alicia now is praising D and favouring him so much is just like my dad. even now he says how much he loves my brother and he has him as his wallpaper (my brother has my dad and him as wallpaper). This really breaks my heart to hear and see Alicia act like this… D seems to be a lovely child and I really hope he won’t be ruined by her and especially his relationship to his sister and mother (if he wants to be in contact with her)

Its sad that he couldn't see his sister for his birthday. My Halloween was spent at home because it was super cold and snowy!!!

I was WAITING for this video!!😂😭

Notice he requested breakfast, lunch and dinner all from restaurants? None of Alusha’s delicious home cooking for him!!

Wait a minute. She got a puppy for that boy knowing that he could possibly go back to his mother? She's nasty for that

Just wanna say hell yeah man its great to have good neighbors and to be a good neighbor it seriously makes all the difference in your environment and I've also had some bad ones and for the last couple years have had good ones. I'm happy for you and your family Josh!! God bless you all 😊

Sperm balloons! 🎈 I can’t even catch my breath! 🤣 On a serious note, you are so spot on about EVERYTHING! I pray for those kids every day. Thank you for doing what you do. You’re giving those voiceless children a voice. Keep it up! ❤

I'm so excited you've brought out the Christmas sweaters!

Anyone else find it hysterical that D choose to eat out every single meal 😅🤣🤣. Usually a kid will pick their most favorite dish their parents make. D didn't choose any food for lushy to make lmfao😅

Seriously have been binge watching your videos. You da best!

Her mini wegmans haul threw some shade you should have a look 😂

I used to live 5 mins away from the Syracuse mall, always out of town people say it’s the best thing ever, but we call it “murder mall” due to all the violence in that area 🤣

She’s literally insane!!! I have two kids born in October. They each got 4 gifts. The good ones are coming for Christmas

I noticed she hasn’t shown J at all lately and I truly hope he’s ok. She already had let social media run their lives, but it should never ever be allowed to be more important than any child, but an adopted child who was taken from trauma and then gets retraumatized by the family who promised to protect his wellbeing. Man, she better not get worse than she’s already been. He’s the caring person he is despite being raised by her and having to take a caretaker role because she chooses not to parent her kids anymore.

No kids even trick or treat at the lush house...her candy isn't even wanted 🤣🤣

Yea D does seem like he is a great kid. I noticed he always says Thankyou also ❤

you crack me up . when i see she posted new video i cant wait to see what snark is coming

So wait? Did I hear her say coffee smell "was probably a good thing since she took the red eye home and it's been a week" ? Has she not showered in a week????? 😂

Just came to say, i noticed anger and true compassion for these kids when she said shes making up for his past. Love what you do and hope it reaches the people it needs to ❤

I hate what she does to these bio families. I don't know what they did to lose their kids but if they atone for their mistakes and clean their act up, then that's good. But imagine doing that and then you see this witch buying tens of thousands of dollars of stuff for the kid and you can only afford a $20 gift. It would make you feel inadequate, maybe the child won't want to leave because they'll lose that fancy lifestyle, and maybe you'll feel like the child is better off without you and will stop trying to get them back. It's awful. She should not he doing this. And then to comment about missed birthdays? We dont know why he missed birthdays if it was for a legit scummy reason or they just couldn't afford it. It's awful. She should be raising these big parents up if they are trying to be better. She should not be trying to outshine them and foster the child having a relationship and wanting to go home to his bio family if they are safe.

“Idk what I’d do without Aunt friend who I give a small monthly paycheck to”

Okay, where did you get that cat sweater?!?! I NEED IT!! 😂

Why didn't James get his own room as he's older.

Your channel is so funny. I just listened to this video making my family dinner. The snarking on all these family channels is great

One thing about Alicia I’ve noticed is, she has no friends! Never has a girlfriend over for coffee, never has lunch or dinner outings with the girls. She buys her kids love and who knows why Josh is with her, but he seems gutless.

And.. it must say a lot about living in that household when a teenage girl who got anything they wanted would rather live somewhere else.

This would have also been done to say "See N, look what you didn't want" because, you would hope that N is in touch with her brother

You never fail to crack me up! Lol 😂

Well i know it’s far too early but happy early early birthday 🎉 to one of my favorite RU-vidrs always adding extra joy and happiness & most of all the laughs .. btw ready for snarkmas 😅

I can't wait for Josh to realize that is NOT what she fed them for Halloween! That short popped up for me today and it's everything you would expect!

She needs to spend money on her house! Why doesn't she care about updating her home, that absolutely needs work

Josh, I just have to say, you are hilarious. 😅 not even a minute into the video and you have me crackin up. I enjoy your content ❤ now onto the rest of the video!

She's probably trying to "stuck it to " N. Trying to make her jealous of the life her brother has. What Alicia doesn't get is that N didn't want anything from her, D is going to regret allowing this psychotic woman to use him to hurt his mother and sister. Shoes, clothes, and things wear out, break and get outgrown ....family should be forever.
