The first thing I noticed before Angela said anything was that she took down the video she had of Rosie meeting the other child. She did this before the other family took his videos down. It really showed me how much respect she had for this child and the situation. I’ve been loosely following Angela’s family for a while but after I saw that I subscribed and followed her on Instagram. I love finding people with actual morals!

@melisa8256 4 года назад

I didn’t even know there was a video of him with Rosie. I’m glad it’s gone too. Weird I’ve been watching This Gathered Nests old videos and the only thing I’ve been surprised by... is how much Angela used to look like her sister. I don’t think she does so much now. Which is weird because I don’t think Angies had plastic surgery she just got braces. It’s a mystery for me 🤷🏻‍♀️

@kita3256 4 года назад

What other child? I’m new to this channel... not sure what’s happening..

@_commonthread 4 года назад

I had wondered about that video! I didn’t realize she took it down, but that’s really good!

@hannaht4612 4 года назад

@@kita3256 A different family blog channel had adopted a child from China. There was a video of Rosie ( also adopted from china) meeting this other family. This year the other family chose to abandon their adopted child. This caused outrage across the internet for many reasons. What this comment is referring to is that Angela took down the video of this other child and Rosie once the scandal was brought to light.

@quinnhouse4379 4 года назад

I remember this video and I’m glad Angela is showing the world how a mother is supposed to be. She’s handled this perfectly removing it. I’ve been waiting for Angela to discuss this because if anyone knows what to say about it and teach us about adoption it is her.

@gatomartinez7792 4 года назад

Every time I come across a video where “family channels” are criticized is always about the main stream channels where u can tell they do all these extreme and controversial stuff only to get views. I always mention your channel (This Gathered Nest) in these videos’ comments because I believe you’re truly the definition of a family channel. You know your boundaries, you’re SO respectful of your kids privacy, your videos are helpful and informative and you truly inspire people to be better and to be understanding. ❤️ Thank you for being true to yourself, your belief and morals!!!

@RachelDee 4 года назад

Yes! Well said!

@courtneymiller4006 4 года назад

Gato Martinez do you watch itsjudyslife? They’re another really great family to watch. This gathered nest and itsjudyslife are my favorite 💕

@kidscats3952 4 года назад

Add a "d" to the word criticize as you are saying it has already hsppened so past tense. "Criticize" would be it is happening at the moment "criticized" would be it has already happened. 😊

@AdventuresWithNickle 4 года назад

Yes, very well said!!!

@laisateixeira5878 4 года назад

Love from Brazil, Angela! I've been watching your videos since Rosie came home! At first it was a way for me to exercise my listening in English but then I fell in love with your kiddos and the way you guys raise them!

@ladybugmom10 4 года назад

I love your perspective on RU-vid. Really enjoying watching this. And Dr. Phil said we teach people how to treat us. One of my favorite quotes!

@lunahuff5867 4 года назад

@mackenziewilliams7376 4 года назад

Yes i would love to see how the decluttering has worked out. And also i love watching you and your family ❤

@susanbaldwin4478 4 года назад

So glad you talked about families on Utube. I feel you have always been respectful to your family and would hate to see it end. My kids are grown and so are my grandkids and I absolutely love "spending time with yours". It's fun to see how a big family operates. You've done a great job with your kids. It's fun to see the different personalities of the kids coming thru. Thanks so much for sharing that with us! I would really hate to lose that. God bless all of you.

@corriezoetewey7860 4 года назад

I really appreciate the way you and CR treat your kids online. You are very respectful of your kids and their privacy.

@nikabela 4 года назад

Yes, please do an update on decluttering! I am/was on the same journey earlier this year, and while some things worked out well, some really did not. I need inspiration :)

@Blessedbears 4 года назад

I honestly appreciate your input! We have a family channel and I’m learning the Do’s and donts. It’s so important to keep the kids protected and retain their dignity! I’d love it if more experienced youtubers offered some type of paid class with info!

@leahkilsby4854 4 года назад

Your Chanel's and podcast are something I can get behind. Your stories are so encouraging. Thank you for creating wholesome content. I will continue watching it!

@alanajones4629 4 года назад

Definitely want the decluttering update! Love that series!

"Our clicks are our currency"...omg, I know this but to hear it stated in this fashion was on point Angie👏👏

The noise on this bus is astronomical 🗣🗣🗣 You’re so right about family channels!! I really love how y’all do it, especially with the older kids. It’s about respect ✊🏻

@kristinatoney3040 4 года назад

Thanks so much for being tactful and well spoken! I love how you are so willing to educate without and agenda. I would love for a video of the your top books that you’ve read that have influenced you to be a better person/mom/wife/teacher. Thanks for all you do!!

@collywoowoo 4 года назад

I am so glad you brought up to stop watching content you don’t want to support because so many people watch videos AFTER learning the bad things a channel may do, just out of curiosity, and that HELPS THEM!

@beckywilliams4773 4 года назад

'well done good & faithful servant' Angie, u answered the 'scandal' question in such an honouring way. May God bless you all xxxxxxxxxxx

@tanyazachara3292 4 года назад

Love that you mentioned 'The Body Keeps The Score'. Amazing book.

@TheSarahlikesmuffins 4 года назад

I really appreciate the way you addressed the adoption scandal… I was also, as a subscriber, battling with the idea of leaving a comment to ask you to talk about it because I didn’t necessarily know if I wanted to bring any attention to the situation or whether wasn’t fair for me to do that

@NatalieBennett 4 года назад

@theclaytonblend 4 года назад

Thank you so much Angela for this video especially the first part of it. I'm a small family RU-vidr and barely started when friends said so many scary and discouraging things about put my family out there because of all these bad family RU-vid channels. I almost lost the courage to continue with my channel but your words have inspired me to keep on and make it right. I pray that God will help me to make good contents that will be a blessing and inspiration to many that watch us. Thank you so much for this video

@zng3111 4 года назад

I'm on board for a decluttering update! Thanks for your time and wise words, as always.

@RachelDee 4 года назад

Thank you for the resources in your blog post, Angie. Especially as a Believer, I enjoy Karyn Purvis/TBRI/Empowered to Connect SO MUCH. You've done well cultivating a beautiful culture of people in this corner of the internet. For years, I've watched you honor the layers involved in adoption and homeschooling and other topics. Your testimony is strong and God bless the hard work you've done through Him and for Him.

@scwendy6302 4 года назад

Karyn was such a kind and sincere person. It warms my heart reading about her work continuing to help people❤️

@dyceemma 4 года назад

I have so much respect for you! I think your navigation of these complex issues is so well thought out, balanced and rational. I just find myself agreeing with everything you say haha and that does not happen often. ❤️

@EmilyofREL 4 года назад

I hear you on trying to do the splits! I’ve decided I want a bunch of gymnastics skills back. I’m 24 and quit gymnastics when I was about 10, but I’m working on it! I’m just not as flexible as I was when I was 8!

@kellyteacherforlife7165 4 года назад

Hey Angie! Can't believe I actually am first on commenting! I want you to know that you are being mentioned on SO many RU-vid channels as being held up as a genuine authentic family who encourage adoption and you tell it like it is. You are being compared to Myka Stauffer on many comments and the difference between the two of you. Night and Day.....Great job Angie. Keep doing what you're doing! Loved your book!!!

@julieadams2455 4 года назад

Your channel has been so good for us as a fostering family. You are a brilliant family channel and do it really well. So many lives have been changed by your channel xxxfrom England

Thanks for addressing adoption dissolution. I just read your blog post. Thank you for your non judgmental and thought provoking response. Also watching the Hope Baker discussion now. 💕

@morgankirkendall5829 4 года назад

I love your channels. Would you ever do a video on the kids perspective of homeschooling and being part of a large family? The way kids see things often is the most innocent and more "wise" then a room full of Phd's.

@heatherlivingood5326 4 года назад

I could listen to u talk all day... 😍 love your views & morals Angela! And OF COURSE~LOVED your book~absolutely recommend!!! Blessings to u and your beautiful family!!! 😘 XO

@dawnforlife 4 года назад

I'm currently 26 weeks pregnant and wondering how or if I want to share my little one online but you make it seem very possible in a very respectful way. You showed that you don't have to choose one or the other. Though at this moment, I still don't know if I should/want, I think you such a great example of doing it right. Thank you for sharing 😊

@cassandrap570 4 года назад

I started watching your videos back when Rosie was the newest addition 😁 I am so happy that I found your channel and kept watching your videos for motivation. As of March was able to get a foster baby in my care as already single mother. ❤🧡💜 It is so worth it.

@barbibutton9619 4 года назад

Awww; as a single mom I always wanted to do that but fear held me back. Now I'm too old

@TheBeautifulUpsideDown 4 года назад

So good! I love what you say about family channels and couldn’t agree more. It’s a bummer for those who just want to share real life and can’t get seen because they’re buried under the challenges, click bait, and phony stuff😆 quality content can be hard to find, which makes me so thankful for channels like yours! It’s the same for all social media though. In fact I was just chatting with a friend and I said social media is just weird, some people could literally post their kid picking their nose and get thousands of likes meanwhile something heartfelt or something someone worked hard on isn’t seen. Social media/RU-vid is a beast. Lots of pros and cons. I feel like we just have to keep at the forefront of our thoughts our why - why are we there? For the most part I sincerely believe it’s not really about deserving what you do or don’t get (follows, likes, popularity, etc) - it’s just the way the world works. Some stories are headliners, but everyone has a story that is worthy and deserving of being heard.😊

@StellaPlayss 4 года назад

I used you as an example of a family channel I like in a comment about those other questionable channels. I think you’re spot on in your analysis of that. You’re very classy and don’t come off as a narcissist or like you’re using your children in a way they will resent in the future.

@dayswiththegrays8134 4 года назад

I would definitely watch what I eat in a day and would love to see a declutter update too 😊 x

@mariannalacrosse2886 4 года назад

The workout response I about choked I was laughing so hard I feel ya girl 😂😂

@Courtnie41 4 года назад

I would love a what I/we eat in a day video and another family meal plan video where you laid out the menu. Im doing IF and I used to just eat what I made the kids for lunch but I'd like different simple ideas for me. Also I always feel like I struggle with easy breakfast ideas for them lately (I'm not a morning person so I like to keep breakfast simple). I also just enjoy getting ideas on how other large families eat especially when mom is maybe not always eating what everyone else eats (I do eat dinner with my family...whatever I make).

@jonilloyd1100 4 года назад

I would love to see a follow up video on how your decluttering has held up.

@sharonheffren7755 4 года назад

Thank you for being honest, without jumping into the mud of the latest RU-vid "scandal". I agree with your viewpoint of simply unsubscribing and moving on, because yes, it is like taking away the currency used here on RU-vid. Without viewership, these channels will either garner the attention of the RU-vid powers that be, or their channels will wither and die.

@schoonslow 4 года назад

❤️❤️ love your honesty as always

@dawnforlife 4 года назад

Agree! 🧡

@kvcp 4 года назад

Your blog post made me think of a conversation I recently had with my Aunt. She and my uncle never had children and I never asked why or never would ask. So i am not sure how it came to be that she was telling me the reason why. She had asked herself how willing and ready she was to raise a child with any type of special needs. Cause if she had one, it was ALL in. She realised that she didn't have it in her, and chose a different path in life.

@gwendolynfields3687 4 года назад

We need the family channel, what else is there to watch. They are very educational. I’m so tired of all the sadness. Please leave these channel alone. Thanks Angela, I love all the channels, much ❤️

@estopesto2647 4 года назад

I say that to people all the time! In 10 years time when these exploited children realised their parents lived off of them for years and because they weren't "technically" working, aren't entitled to any royalties 😐

@ProgressOverPerfction 4 года назад

When they started turning off comments and parents got in a tizzy (or at least another channel we followed) I really hoped they would start regulating this for kids and treating them like child actors with funds set aside for their futures.

@Iheartjareddiamond 4 года назад

You deserved our click currency. Always great advice. Thanks

@marysuemurray5662 4 года назад

I’m 82 years old and follow about 10 vloggers. I love watching the kids. I haven’t seen any channels I would say are offensive or would be harmful to their children. I read your book and also listened to it on Audible. I loved it and would recommend it to anyone.

@olgamadz 4 года назад

Feels like she’s addressed her view on Mykas situation without naming her. I’m so happy to watch someone that wouldn’t use kids for money like that. Because yes money does change people.

@homeeducatingthemadlads5241 4 года назад

I was saving the exact same thing to people, how its the teeny tiny number of toxic family channels who make the rest of us look bad. x

@mnorberta24 4 года назад

honestly the workout bit thing is a mood!!! i've been in a workout slump recently but it does great things for my mental health when i do workout :,) if u don't mind sharing, what's the workout channel that you discovered?

@colleenjones3988 4 года назад

I found you via another you tuber that is innthe spotlight. I hate that your channels get lumped into the same category. I love your family, i love that you dont show you kids having bad days. You acknowledge they happen, but you dont do that to your kids.

@afeenzainab2263 4 года назад

@TheKirraneFamilyDiaries 4 года назад

Love all of this but particularly the stuff around family channels ❤️

@Ninitschga 4 года назад

Absolutely right. Unfortunately there is and always be an audience that seeks and loves drama, but I would really like those viewers to find content and channels outside the family vlog realm. And that’s only going to happen if we set an example and don’t support channels who don’t deserve it.

@tf9223 4 года назад

I so agree with the cereal! I also inhale my cereal so it doesn’t get soggy or warm 🤢 and the thought of sharing it with my toddler is especially stomach turning. Great insight on family channels on RU-vid. 😀

@2plus2by2 4 года назад

Yes to what your family eats in a day/week, and how your IF works into that. I have an almost adult daughter interested in IF. "Our clicks are our currency" oh my word, YES! I am trying to teach this to my teens. They keep trying to tell me they don't have a voice, but they do, they do!

@cpr6760 4 года назад

Well said, Angela about RU-vid family creators. I love your family. Also, no one would fault you if you were to answer the "I don't see you exercise, what do you do? " question with let me introduce you to my eight (8, like 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8) children!
