It is so sed to see these children grow up with a camera in their face as thier normal! About one week ago, a 7 or maybe 8-year-old girl of a familybloger family (5 Kinds 2 parents), grabs her mom's phone to make a lot of RU-vid shorts with her friend and her brother. The songs she used wear inappropriate and the camera angels wear disturbing! Thankfully, the parents notice the Videos and they wear delete next day.

I don’t fault people who are doing the best they can with the income they earn, but if you choose to put 6 of your kids in one tiny room and your toddler on the floor when you could do better, that’s not right. And with them being all over each other in that confined space, I hope those kids have headphones. These kids are going to have trauma when they’re older, if they don’t already.

As someone who grew up in a very similar situation, your points are spot on. The older kids are 100% caring for/raising the younger ones. I would also like to add that while the kids may think they’re okay with this situation, when they become adults and realize how they were treated their feelings about it will almost certainly change. Children want to make their parents happy, and probably think that they’re fine with having their lives blasted all over social media. As an adult, they’re going to realize how much their privacy was violated in order to monetize a lifestyle that they probably won’t agree with in a few years. Using your kids to make money on social media is disgusting and shouldn’t be legal.

If the baby was born in the bus and hasn't even been to a doctor, then they probably never got a birth certificate. I recently learned that this is a big problem for a lot of children whose parents try to keep them out of the system. It makes me wonder about the other kids and how many of them are going to be unable to get a job or a bank account when they get older.
@bekkyc9780
@bekkyc9780 13 дней назад
You can get a delayed birth certificate as an adult. There are definitely some inconveniences related to a delayed vs normal birth certificate, but fortunately it means these kids can get passports, bank accounts, jobs, etc. Not endorsing it, though. Definitely better to just get the birth certificate when they are born.

I follow the Fundie snark subreddit. One major problem is with the youngest child. The baby's showing signs of health problems and neglect. The baby is out in the sun without prtection and has sunburns/tans at just a few weeks/months old. The baby is showing signs of birth trauma (born in a small bus shower without medical or a post medical check). The baby never smiles or laughs and almost always is crying, frowning, or staring off into the distance (seems unable to eye track from possible blindness).

@bretonneux3389
@bretonneux3389 13 дней назад
the baby do smile and laugh and doesn't cry often. However, he has clearly very serious sight issues : he never reacts to what is in front of him, he doesn't seem to see what is in front of him. Unless it's brain damage. But the worst part is, yeah, how those parents always take him out, just carrying him, instead of using a stroller, and he has neither hat nor sunglasses despite frequent extreme sunlight. And they often carrry him wrong, not supporting his neck. That is really beyond me. Those two already had 7 children, each of them look healthy : so there is no way they don't know the basis of childare every childless idiot knows. The only explanation i see, is they are so focused and obsessed by social media that they just don't care to endanger their babe if they can get their posts on beautiful sunburned places with the whole family (and a stroller is just slowing them, nah) , and they can't properly hold the babe while also holding the camera. The other explanation is, they follow some crazy internet guru who has "traditionnal" methods for child raising, and they test it on their infortunate Boone.

You cannot convince me that all 8 of these children are happy and healthy and they all live together with zero issues. Edited to add: YES, I’m well aware that even families who don’t live in a bus have issues. Thanks to those who clearly don’t read the comments before them and repeat the same sentiment. It’s kinda not the point though! This family present themselves this way, as being happy, healthy with no issues, it’s the entire premise of their brand. I’m not saying they’d be happier in a mansion with a bedroom each and a pony. I’m just saying I’m not convinced that this family are as happy, healthy and issue free as they portray themselves to be.

Having so many kids like those two, no way are those kids getting the attention they need and their individual needs met. My 3 kids are all different, different personalities, different temperaments, and even I know you gotta customize your parenting style and approach to each child. And that right there is exhausting. What works for one doesn’t work for the other. And you have to be flexible. The cookie cutter approach doesn’t apply when raising children unless the parent chooses to out of laziness.

I'll share my experience of growing up in a large Chirsitan family: Note: There are nine kids, I am one of them, and my two parents. And to preface: please take in mind that this is my families personal experience, and defenitly not to norm for people from large or small families. 1. Space and privacy: We live in a nice 3 story house which has plenty of room for all of us (and as an introvert I get plenty of alone time, which is nice). I only have to share a room with one other sister (who is my best friend, so we both looooove the arrangement), my two lil brothers share a room (they have their own beds), my oldest sister and brother have their own rooms, and my three youngest sisters share a large room (once again they have their own beds). We aren't cramped at all and have plenty of free space, not to mention a decently large backyard that we can play around in. 2.Education: Yes, we're homeschooled, but both my parents were teachers before they decided to homeschool us so we are getting quality education. And we get to go out with friends and hang out at our local library etc so we aren't socially hampered lol Sadly several of my friends have moved out of state recently (which is a bummer) but we still chat and video call often. 3.Parental love: my parents have done a great job on raising my siblings and I equally, and I've never felt ignored or neglected (I'm the forth child btw which is in the middle-child range, so if the middle child isn't neglected, you know no one is lol). And I always can confide in my parents (of course, some things like P and other girl stuff, I can't talk to my dad about bc that's just akward lol).... I did have my own rebellious teen era , but my parents gave me plenty of space,love, and support as I tried to figure myself out (and they've done the same to all my other siblings). 4. Sibling Relationshios: Of course my siblings and I have gotten into our fair share of fights, but honestly none of us can stay mad at each other for more than five minutes and would end up laughing and playing together after any argument lol. But most of the time, we have a good time together (as mentioned beforehand, we have friends as well, so it's not because we have no one else to play with, I guess we just naturally get along or smth) I know a lot of people talk about the "older siblings have to be proxy parents to the younger siblings" but we never had to deal with that (trust me, I've talked with my three older siblings A LOT now that we are older). My eldest sister is bossy tho, but she is the eldest and they usually are the bossy ones, but we have great fun doing crafts and playing CODM together. .And every single time I baby sit my younger siblings I get paid by my parents sooo yeah, I'm not getting taken advantage of. Btw My older brother is in college rn, and my older sisters both have jobs (yes, they still live at home, the economy is too horrible to live elsewhere) so I'm the oldest child in the house most of the time. 5.Healthcare: don't worry, we have insurance, birth certificals (all of us were born in a hospital) etc. We go to the doctors every year for health checkups. A lot of us have glasses (thx for the genes Mom lol) so we go to the eye doctor routinly. So yeah, our parents make sure that we are in good health! 6. Electronics: I think you can tell by my comment that we're allowed to have phones/tablets etc. The younger kids do have screen restrictions because they're young and don't need all that blue light. Us older kids (highschool age and up) take care of our selves bc my parents said we are old enough to make our own decisions (they will step in tho if we are making too many unhealthy choices, like staying on our phones all day every day to the point we are ignoring our health). My dad is kinda a tech nerd, and I'm one too, so yeah, electronics are loved in our house. 7. Publicity: My parents don't even have social media other than facebook, and they never post stuff about us (expect to close family members via a private DM). After my Dad retired from being a public school teacher, he taught cyber security and online safety classes, so he's kinda paranoid of putting pictures of us online because people can use AI to make perverted deepfakes and highly discourages anyone from putting pictures of their children online...(safety first people..) 8. Quality of living: yeah, if you read the entire essey before this, you probably can tell my family has it pretty good. My dad worked his behind off to provide for us, and my mom manages the money he brings in. Of course, we aren't spoiled and have to do chores to get allowance (don't freak out, we each take care of our rooms, and have one other domain to care for, it takes about 30 mintues a week for us to take care of all our chores...many hands make light work.) The adult children don't get allowances tho, they have jobs, and get to live at home for free lol . 9. Conclusion: I know not every big family is like this, this video proves that, but my parents are literally one in a million. They've done a pretty amazing job if I do dare say so myself. They didn't jump into having a large family as a status symbol or smth, they just decided to accept however many children God gave them, and made sure to care for us in the best way possible once we arrived. . Having a big family is defenitly not for everyone, and I understand that, but I really wish people online would stop belittling large families such as mine because of crazy parents like this (and the older generation of parents that didn't realy parent at all but instead neglected their kids a lot). I have been bullied by ppl online because of the size of my family more times than I can count, and I hope that no one else is bullied because of the size of their family, big or small!

IDK if parents would share their income [in which kids participated!] to help them be independent. Still, again I hope those kids will success. This lifestyle must be a torture. Zero privacy.

It's also worth mentioning that these children have no support system or access to other adults outside of their family. I was homeschooled myself and think homeschooling can be wonderful if done well but speaking from experience, homeschool families already have an issue with being somewhat isolated and insular and these kids don't stand a chance if they do have any issues with the way they're being raised or if there's something more sinister going on within their family.

Also, them gushing over how their kids are each other's best friends is such a red flag when you realize those kids have no other options in friends or best friends if they're homeschooled, constantly on the move and don't even have a phone to chat with anyone else at all. Not even to call a support line or straight up CPS, that's what I'd be aiming to do if someone stuck me in a shoebox with seven siblings, and parents that make me act out cringe for clout.

Thank you for being upset at what is happening and not letting it be normalized. I couldn’t talk till I was three, and read and write until I was between 10 to 12.

Apparently God told the father to do this? There is ZERO chance that the God revealed in the Bible tells someone to remove themselves from a church community. Hebrews 10:24-25, Ephesians 4:11-16, Matthew 16:18, Acts 9:31, the implications of Colossians 3:16, all the verses about leaders/ministers/deacons make it clear that if you call yourself a Christian, you should be attending a church to serve/encourage/be served/be encouraged/be taught/be prayed for/be in community etc.

As a punishment for watching TV passed by curfew, my parents punished me by forcing me to sleep in their room for a month. I only hear them having sex once when I woke up and I was so traumatized that even almost 30 years later I still haven't been able to process it. I was 10. I put the pillow over my head and I was crying praying that they stop, I can still hear their moans and movements. To this day, I haven't been able to have a normal sex life, most of the times I find sex repulsive, I tried therapy but it didn't work. I strongly believe that hearing your parents have sex as a child is one of the most abusive things a parent can do to their child.

My grandmother had six children by age 27 and she told all her daughters when they got married, "do not nave 6 children, you will not have enough time to give them what they deserve." and she was a homemaker while my grandfather was in the army. There's a reason why people have less kids these days because resources are tight. And maybe you have enough physical resources but your hours in the day are always a finite resource. Big famlies can be wonderful and people find happiness in them of course! But it's something that you have to consider when adding more and more people dependent on you.

Ok, I grew up in a large, low income family (9 kids currently). When I only had 6 siblings I lived in a trailer. We were also all homeschooled. It's a similar size and 7 kids is a similar number, so I want to compare that experience. Me and my siblings were neglected emotionally, academically, and somewhat physically. Our mom was a stay at home mom, but she didn't have the time in the day to properly support all of us. Older kids would be homeschooling younger ones. My oldest sibling, at age 12, helped with the home birth of one of my younger siblings. We had 3 bedrooms, with 3 kids per room and the youngest with our parents. There was no privacy. My oldest sibling was rooming with 2 toddlers. They hated it. We would spend most of the day outside doing random projects and wandering in the woods. All of us were behind in school to the point cps later put us in public school. I'm also very worried about the safety of these kids. None of them have phones, which means no ability to call 911 or family tracking apps. They are famous online, which means they have some creepy followers, that's just how it is. Their parents document where they are at any time. They are constantly in an unfamiliar environment. I hate to say it, but I'm extremely worried one of them will be taken advantage of or even kidnapped.

Nobody said they shouldn't be taken away in this scenario either... they absolutely should, the mother is obviously a rabid narcissist, "her toxic trait is adding _things_ to her life that depend on her for survival" truest words have never been uttered by her, she should be arrested with child abuse

Knowing how often influencers fake their contents for views, I wonder if all of this whole “a big family living in a bus” is all a big lie. I can easily imagine the family having an actual house and living there most of the time but going for a road trip over the weekend or something to get their week’s worth of contents filmed. Or, if they’re rich enough, get hotel rooms every other night or something.

I am one of 8 kids. and we were also homeschooled most of our childhood. Let me tell you, after spending the day doing school together, the last thing I would have wanted was to be crammed in a sardine can bedroom with all my siblings! Lol! You need a break, even from people you adore. My family is very close, especially all my sisters, we are literally best friends with each other, but our parents never had to shove us in a bus to make us be friends. At one point we lived in a three-bedroom house, so there was just a boys' room and a girls' room, but only for a year or two. The best thing for us was when we were able to move to a bigger house (not a mansion, just a normal house) and had more space to have privacy.

There’s an episode of Wife Swap (circa 2004!) where one family is a bus family. At the end of the episode, their two daughters beg them to go back to school and join team sports. The parents compromise was to take them to homeschool sports in places they traveled to. So the kids never got real friends, they were behind several grades in school (as found in the episode), and were never really happy with their parents. I always wondered what happened to those kids.

While I don't agree with filiming their kids the way they are I see nothing wrong with van life. Wanting to take a few years to explore the world is really cool so why not film it and make some money. The kids are getting a better education exploring the world than sitting in a stuffy school. I know there is a lot of bad things with these types of pages but I do see some good things. Film your van life but only if there are no kids involved.
