What The Heck Is This?! MOM of 8 Is The Darkest Part Of People Trying To Make It On Social Media 

I cant tell if i feel sorry for her...or just plain creeped out. I don't know...she just looks extremely unwell. You can tell she's truly struggling and its very sad to watch.

God this is just a textbook example of the horrors of grooming. Alienated from her family, distrust of counselors and professionals, unable to take care of herself, no friends… and now he’s dead but the damage has already been done, she can’t function without him. Not to mention there are eight kids involved who have undoubtedly been traumatized by this dynamic and now have to deal with the death of their father and their mothers mishandling of the situation

I am so glad you picked this up and I can comment freely. He was a 50 year old guy without much to offer. Preyed on a naive teenager. Impregnated her numerous times. Did he see himself as a solo Jim Jones? Clearly couldn’t provide and she has minimal life skills and a childlike mindset. Those kids need help asap.

“Im shocked at my husbands sudden death” also “he was 70 years old” WHAT?!!!

I’m sick of people sharing every ounce of their lives. They need therapy, not a RU-vid channel

I was a social worker for years, and "learned helplessness" is a problem, definitely. Ty

It’s so scary! I believe she was definitely groomed and in a mentally abusive relationship. He has removed everyone from their outside circle and she doesn’t even know how to live without him! She sounds so uneducated and it’s so sad 😢

Oh my god, as a defense attorney I'm sitting hear like STOP. F--ING. TALKING. NOW. As a person, I'm thinking "I should send this to the prosecutor in her jurisdiction..."

Side note... Josh needs to make a shirt that says: What's going on right now?!

She didn't tell her younger kids for a whole WEEK!! The 10 year old found out by a cop that said he was sorry about his dad passing.

It really makes you think about wtf goes on inside people’s houses, right? If they are capable of showing this mess of a life. Poor children

She's going to burden those adult kids. My mom did it too. Me and my sisters are a mess because my mom put the weight off her shoulders on us.

Her husband abused pain killers. She has made videos of her dead husband and before he passed away. Their house is filthy and she has filmed one of her children on the floor one time and you can see big cockroaches crawling under her daughters leg while on the floor. It is so sad.

She calls it an emotional outlet but it’s called oversharing. This is really unhealthy and dysfunctional. She needs help and an intervention, for the sake of these poor children.

The algorithm is really pushing her videos for some reason, I watched her and it doesn't sit right with me.

I found my father dead when In feb , my 3 year old son was with me when I found him and even I had a talk with him ( as far as his understanding can go ) I told him grandpa wasn’t there anymore . So awful to hide it from the kids , you don’t have to explain every detail

My dad died when I was 11. I couldnt think of a worse way to grieve. She keeps saying that she doesnt have anyone.. and in the same sentence "I have 8 children" she literally has 8 sets of eyes looking up at her, wanting and NEEDING her to show them how to navigate this. Shes falling apart, you can see shes lost.. and i cant even imagine her pain but her focus needs to be on 8 children that have lost their dad and really dont need to lose their mum too. Especially not to social media 💔

So, he’s a guy who likely got hurt or had surgery when he was younger, got addicted to pills and lived with chronic pain. Ended up on odsp where all his “hippy pills, knockout pills” are paid for. And then Eventually it caught up to him and he OD’d this is so sad. And really insane to see and like….. it’s posted to the internet!!! The fact that he passed out on the kitchen floor and it was so normal in this household that they ignored him for hours is insane to me. Absolutely bonkers. And he wouldn’t like her to call the ambulance, she said that. Out loud. Which tells me likely manipulated and groomed into thinking this is normal and since he completely secluded her and made her totally dependant on him he had ALL the control. Oh my gosh. This is next level.

I came across her videos a week ago. Her husband had a serious opiate addiction and that’s what killed him. This wasn’t a recent problem. She said in her latest video he had been taking opiates since his 30’s. He was over medicated in many of the videos and she filmed and posted it. When he died he had been passed out on the kitchen floor all day which apparently was a common occurrence. She thought she would be held responsible bc she didn’t do anything bc she thought he was just passed out. Sadly, he should not have been on those medications! He took them for degenerative disk disease which is something I also have. Opiates made it so much worse. I was on them for 3 years and the pain was worse than ever. The best thing I ever did was make the decision to get off of them 4 years ago and got my life back. I now live with little to no pain. I also lost my niece to an accidental overdose on her prescribed meds after watching her struggle for over 10 years. Watching him being over medicated was really triggering and brought me back to that time. I do feel bad for her (well mainly her children) bc I feel like she has an intellectual disability and is going to have a hard time adulting on her own.

I believe if a person receives ASSISTANCE/WELFARE they SHOULD *NOT* get a "refund" check every year... you are RIGHT Josh... a TRAINWRECK... with a ringlight... 🤔🇺🇸

P.S. The odd thing is this platform was PUSHING this video out to everyone, just randomly. I guess they have gone from allowing child abuse/neglect to actually promoting it! 🤷‍♀

I know this is supposed to be serious but I can’t help but think she’s the random lady in the grocery store that keeps getting closer in your personal space to tell you a story even though you keep backing away. But she just can’t take the hint. 😂

She’s telling people on the jnternet in the hopes they’ll donate to her. The internet is an open market for people to virtually beg

As a former ER/OR nurse... her description of the events at home DO NOT ADD UP... THERE IS MORE SHE'S NOT TELLING... 🇺🇸

There were 30 years between my parents. My mother (younger) manipulated my dad into marrying her because she knew he would die before her, and she thought he had money. He was 72 when I was born. This lady reminds me of my mother....

Did she just say that she saw him laying on the floor and did nothing about it until much later? WTF?? And they tried to bring him back to life for 3 hours? Yeah, they don't do that.

Her husband died in July not recently. The grocery hauls Josh you gotta do those videos. The house is filthy,kids eat from the floor at her hauls stepping all over the food. Truly a sad sad story.😢 There is also a short of how he was breathing with the kids crawling all over him and he doesn't wake up. He looked like he was dying at that moment! So sad he didn't get help 😢

I watched her first couple videos and i couldn't believe that she took the advice of her 18 year old on not telling the other children of his passing.

New subscriber and binge watching all your videos! Thanks for spreading awareness and making me laugh along the way 😅

I am literally screaming at you right now Josh! Lol! Her husband died in JULY!!!! She released it now to create a patreon and has changed the monthly price on it 3 times in a week. It started at 2.99 and it now up to 10 per month! This seems to be a scam

Is anyone else stopping to just think about how scary it is in some peoples homes and no one is even aware of it?! I am so effin thankful for the life I have built and the small yet loving family I have. Omg, it’s wild what’s on the internet!

Thank you for covering this Josh and making the statememt that when living in poverty that families like this are considered "normal." I think a lot of people that have not lived in poverty have no idea.

I feel so sad for the kids that have to live in these environments.

When I was a child I was raised on welfare. My father was an alcoholic and my mom was just a mess. I have had a job since I was 13 years old. I have 4 children and worked my whole life to give them a better life than what I had. I'm 58 now and all my children are hard working adults and I could not be prouder. This makes me so sad. Seeing video's like this just makes me crazy. I feel so bad for the children because they are the ones that truly suffer.😢😢

she popped up on my feed and i did watch her. I think there are many levels of wrong going on here.

I wasnt taught coping mechanism, among other things, and it really stunted me. Not having parents who care and teach you is really really hard. Especially when you grow up unaware of how to handle so many situations. These people are stunting their kids to be just like them.

If I lost one of my children or my husband I think social media would not be on my mind for sure. This is sickening

If she's monetized on social media she's gonna lose all her assistance especially her living in low income too!

This video was heartbreaking honestly to see inside these people’s lives, those poor kids. But I have to say when you said “mam this is a Wendy’s” I about spit my drink out 😂

I just saw this Woman’s post about a week ago. Just weird! She lives in subsidized housing. The house is filthy. The husband was much older than her. Very strange.

Holy shit i escaped a similar situation at 25. My ex was in his 40s and his next girlfriend was 17. He's an absolute predator and this guy is the same. The situation is almost exactly the same as their's. Right down to homeschooling to keep people from asking questions.

49:36 you hit the nail on the head, she is advertising her lone parent status and the fact she was already taken advantage of. She is handing her kids up on a plate for child molesters. She is the perfect target, alone, too many kids to attend to, she doesn't have appropriate boundaries in her adult life, due to how she was married, she can be convinced that abuse is normal.

Sounds like he might’ve been addicted to pain meds, If it was a normal occurrence for him to be passed out on the kitchen floor, vomiting. Seems like she was groomed by him when she was younger and he had her isolated from everyone. I feel bad for her.

He didn't have a terminal illness. She was dreading him passing because she knew he would before her as he was so much older. That's what she meant. Because he was...you know...elderly😬

Have been a single Mum for 20 years. I have a career, a home, all my bills paid etc... I raised productive, lovely capable young men, who both have special needs...we had welfare support when they were younger but I always worked on top of that and managed to meet both their day to day needs and assisted them to negotiate their medical and special needs.

This is what happens when people have no family, no friends, and no support system. It's sad, and disgusting at the same time. How is ANY of this anyone's business on RU-vid? It's obvious she's garnering sympathy for money. That, IMO, is one of the lowest things you can do, especially when you've just lost someone you claim you love so much. A decent person with morals does NOT exploit this kind of tragedy for a lousy buck. FFS... 🤦‍♀️

“I put my son’s hair in elastic to keep it out of his face” “Ma’am this is a Wendy’s”🤣🤣

so basically she left him dead on the kitchen floor because she thought he was sleeping?? or passed out how many times has he passed out on the kitchen floor? her story keeps changing. Her story just keeps changing over and over and she said she is getting a lawyer for the next time so how many times have they been involved in their life?

Her husband has been deceased for 12 hours, yet here she is capitalizing off his death?! There is so much going on this family. I’m absolutely flabbergasted!

Omg! As a nurse, I don’t even know what to say! It sounds like he may have OD'd and then subsequently passed out, vomited, and then aspired his own vomit. That medicine package she showed is epinephrine, which we give every 2-5 minutes during resuscitation, so that makes sense that they would have given that. What a wild story! I can’t believe she didn’t check on him when he was just lying there on the floor!

The baby bonus / government money for kids can literally only make you money if you’re neglecting your children. If you’re buying them school supplies, putting them in sports, buying them shoes, clothes, good food, etc etc that your kids need then your baby bonus should be spent fully on your kids. If you’re “making money” from it it’s because your neglecting your kids and not buying them what you should be buying them.

I lost a child and I could never even imagine doing this! I barely even wanted to tell family and friends. This is disgusting. Now, I will share about Trisomy 18 because that's what my daughter had, but nothing beyond that.

Not sure the dude was terminally ill, maybe it is her admitting that just being in a relationship with a 30 years differance, it's common sense to expect that he would pass first. Doesn't seem like they did anything to prepare for this very expected outcome.

I only discovered you during 8 Passengers, & you are such a joy that I’m watching content about ppl I do not care about bc your comments are wise & funny!

Whew this is too much! I had to stop at the 30minute mark and take a break! What is going on inside of these households?!?

You see a lot of this with parents of terminaly illed children. I see it a lot on IG. It's truly sad and extremely disturbing to see. Being a grieving mother myself... I can't imagine posting pictures of my child during or after their passing😔💔

I found it disturbing that when the cops came to her door.. her first thought was that she was in trouble.. ummm, why would that be the first thought that pops into your head? Just got a weird vibe from all of it.

TWELVE HOURS ago, her husband passed and she's making a video about it?? I know that if one of my loved ones died the _last_ thing I'd be thinking about is jumping on camera and telling the internet. Edit: I'm getting _weirrrrd_ vibes from these people.

I think this woman is trolling everybody! She knows exactly what she is doing. She has been caught in multiple lies and acting so mentally unstable is pulling in the views. She is just drifting off of people's emotions! I feel so bad for all of her children. You are correct, Josh.....total shock value!

I’ve lost a child and a spouse. The last thing that would cross my mind would be let me set up my ring light and record this! WTF is this world coming to…

It's so messed up having the youngest child there but the kids don't know their dad died so messed up she needs to see a therapist in private not on the internet

She’s in Welland. Also, these videos were being posted as if they were in real time, but he died mid-July. She probably got cut off and needed a new income stream.

Here in N.Ireland they put a stop to people being able to have loads of children and stay on benefits. A few years back it was changed so that you only got benefits for the first 2 children, any born after that can not be added to your claim.

I just read that she's possibly getting charged with manslaughter. This is some crazy shit

Something is up in her eyes. A screw or 2 loose. Scary.

In a recent video she said a viewer called the police to check on her and she said when the police showed up she immediately thought theyd gotten the autopsy results and they were there because she was in trouble 😮 Very odd thing to say!

No way this woman is capable of home schooling. Are Canadian school teachers mandated reporters ( like in the US)? If so, I imagine she will be reported if anyone she’s that the children are not being taken care of properly. She’s telling the whole world so they will probably find out regardless of the schools.

Josh I completely disagree, these kids should not be homeschooled. What kind of program are they using? Certainly it's not the mom educating them, she is very mentally unwell and the dad was a creep from the looks of it. If any of these kids have a chance of escaping poverty, they should get a proper education. A teacher or counselor could get them proper help

had to stop watching because this mom makes me sick to my stomach. i hope her kids are all taken care of and okay 😭

One of the top reasons I hate social media. It gives weirdos a platform. And now I have to know they exist. Has she ever considered her husband *wanted* to isolate her from her family? She ever considered that's probably one (of many) reason he wanted a 20y wife? Bc at 20y you don't have a prefrontal cortex. Making it a piece of cake for a 50y man to lord over and influence you. Especially if you're vulnerable enough.

I am so glad your covering this one! It’s really sad. Her 3 year old missing front teeth from all the cola she buys. She said her house is filthy. She also said she is not monetized.

Josh, what youre seeing and not understanding is shock. She is in shock. I lost my husband to cancer 7.5 years ago and for the first 6 months i was in complete shock. I walked around in a total fog. Im not defending her, like she shouldnt be on the internet, she shouldnt be posting this... but thats all it is. Its also why her story jumps all over the place, shes trying to make sense of things as they are happening.

Glad you are talking about her. Sad story. I too have been watching her. She made it sound like it was that day and found out he died in July

Ammy Robinson made a video showing receipts of how she's lying about the date of death, the ages of her childre, all kinds of random weird things there's no need to lie about. Yes, this is the weirdest thing I've ever seen- 100%! It's so so sad too.

I think when she was saying she’d been dreading his death for 30 years is that she knew he was a lot older than her & she knew this day would come sooner than later. I don’t think he was terminal. At least that’s not the vibe I’m getting. Overall-super effing sad.

He was laying on the floor for hrs she said he was snoring so she left him he probably had the death rattle

I noticed you had cleaned up the language a bit and I was appreciating it thanks. I love supporting your channel you have such a wonderful message.

WAIT….is she saying she saw him on the floor but didn’t call the ambulance because she figured he was passed out on the floor from medication because it happened in the past?! WTF 😳

This screams abusive relationship to me. She's completely dependent on him and literally doesn't know how to survive without him. Also, the fact that laying unconscious with vomit is not unusual for him, just makes me think he was most likely an addict in some way. Her story is so inconsistent, I don't even think she's comprehending wtf is going on. I do also think she's lying in some way.. more to this than what she's saying for sure!

I've never had a social media account, aside from RU-vid. No Facebook or any of the others. That being said, I'm not nearly as desensitized as most... so, I'm flabbergasted at what people say and do. I'm 50 years old and have never "posted" an image of anything, anywhere. I'm definitely a rarity.

This is a bizarre situation. It sounds like an overdose is what killed him, but is she implying that he passed out on the floor and she just left him there? Like he just falls asleep on the floor sometimes? Super weird. I feel for this person but something is really wrong here. I REALLY feel for the kids

Now that I know, he had a supremacist tattoo. Something I saw in one of her videos makes so much more sense! Their oldest child is named Arian. All of their kids seem to have unique names, but the oldest one, having that particular name through me for a loop when I heard it and now it makes a lot more sense.

I’m thoroughly disgusted! I went and watched some of her shorts on her channel and every video of her home is absolutely rank and nasty! The amount of filth in that home is horrible! The kids, especially the youngest, look disgustingly dirty in every video. My heart breaks for these kids. How she hasn’t been reported yet is beyond me.

I don't like this woman, and I really think she needs to be stopped. Bottom line, she is lazy and acts like some kind of victim, which she isn't. Stop her from doing this. She is crazy.

She says her house is diry because she spends so much time brushing her kids teeth and hair and blah blah blah...but everytime I've seen the kids they sadly look dirty. Plus she had her husband out here driving on his 'heavy medications' as she describes.

Also from Ontario ❤ haven’t heard of this yet. My son’s father died in June of this year,no am barely processing it and I don’t think I could even come in front of a camera to talk about it. I keep my feelings thoughts and struggles between my family and my therapist

Jesus WHERE DO PEOPLE DRAW THE LINE?!?! My dog passed in 2021; and I spent the next 23 hours sleeping outside next to his grave playing Paw Patrol on the iPad for him. I barely set the alarm on my phone to get up for my medical school rotation. I lost my half brother and most of my family. I couldn’t even go to the family gatherings or eat. I COULD NEVER -AND WOULD NEVER- PICK UP A CAMERA AND FILM IT OR MYSELF….!!?!??!?!! Much less has happened and I haven’t even been able, nor cared to, pick up my phone or talk to anyone. I couldn’t bring myself to pick up my phone or tell anyone about my miscarriage at 12 weeks in the ER completely alone. Of all the things we talk about here…this is something I truly cannot understand; and where I absolutely feel disconnected from being a person. If this is how people react to things. Something is very wrong mentally when this is your first inclination. I can’t wrap my head around it at all. How could you care about anything…yes I understand having family etc to care for and NEEDING to function. But it’s a soulless sort of autopilot “functioning.” I have seen it a lot in psychiatry. I have never seen this. Because ^^how could you care enough about anything to set up a ring light, tell the story and upload it to YT?!?!?! 12 hours later?!?!! This is mental illness or a truly, truly sad, desperate attempt to grow viewers. “Sad” isn’t even the correct word. I don’t have a word for it. I don’t have any words to even describe this. How abhorrent. Just….I don’t even know. I really am blown away by this and don’t even want to hear about the couple that posted their deceased baby. Take all the pictures and get all the momentos for yourself. Of course. But…oh my gosh. Idk if I can continue watching this.

I have been following this woman since her husband died and what I gather he was on pain pills and had to many and the kids still don't know that he has passed they think he is in hospital and the police have been called 2 times. He isolated her from her family and his family and kept her at home having kids. Her house is a mess the walls are disgusting.

I pray for the children. May they get a safe and stable and healthy life.

I pray her family sees this and does the right thing and reaches out to her . She needs help.. badd

She seems to be avoiding mandated reporters. Refusing counseling, homeschooling, no friends or family.

It’s counselling that can help you tell the kids too. I used to counsel at family centres including dealing with loss and death even in groups of other children suffering as well. So therapeutic for everyone.

Need to see more on this! I’m stunned by how people can vlog during these times.

She really needs a lot of psychological help. I promise I'm not being judgy, but she 100% needs to get some help and get herself together before she loses her own children as well.

I’m thinking of sending you the TikTok of a ‘mommyvlogger’ (or mummyvlogger for us Australians) who lives in my town. I was curious as to what kind of content people in my home town were posting and came across her channel. She gets thousands of views saying horrible things about her son. She believes her son has ADHD and shows him and his siblings on camera all the time. At one point she said he’d finally made a friend and “god bless this child’s soul for befriending my son because he will have to put up with my kids crack head energy for the rest of the year”. She goes into detail about his medical appts, and just can’t say a nice thing about him. At one point she said he “ran out of the paediatricians rooms and onto the road 5 times during the appointment”, which is nonsense…since she showed the paediatric rooms on camera, and my daughter goes to the same clinic, and I know that the door handle is raised and unable to be opened by children…but stretching the truth makes for good views I suppose. She lays the Australian accent on extremely thick, comically so, and is admittedly an attractive woman…which also helps her gets views. But the things I heard her say about her son, the medical information she gave in just the two TikTok’s I saw…it breaks my heart. She also plays on the fact that she is also neurodivergent. I myself have ADHD, ASD, and I discovered in 2020 I have MS. I also have 3 children with their own unique medical issues. I know that I could start vlogging, and it’d get views. Our family life is hard, it’s interesting, and at times it’s a train wreck…but I refuse to do that to my family. Kids deserve privacy. I want to confront this woman and try to shake some sense into her, but it won’t work…the money is too good, the damage it does to the kids doesn’t seem to matter. It’s heartbreaking.

The most selfish thing I've ever heard, was her say "I'd be ok with him suffering brain damage". That's not your decision.... sounds like he died by himself, and she's suffering with that. Or he went too far with his meds, and overdosed.

I saw Ammys video on this topic. The mom is saying that her husband died 12hrs ago...but he died months prior. She was hiding the date on her videos, getting her kids ages wrong, etc it seems to be a very messy situation.

8:05 you’re exactly right! It’s like rubber necking by an accident. It’s horrible yet you can’t look away. And I think one person at their computer doesn’t think their one watch will matter. But in reality there is thousands of rubber neckers giving them a paycheck.

I work as a psychologist with individuals who are on Australia’s version of social welfare and disability pension. Australia’s welfare system seems to be very similar to Canadas in that on one hand it’s a vital support system for these people who would otherwise be homeless in other countries; however, on the other hand it does create entitlement and learned helplessness which is a huge problem. I guess these issues are so complex and there are no simple solutions. It can defiantly feel hopeless at times.

Can we PLEASE get Kathy’s reaction to this craziness!? I’m baffled
