I have unfollowed them this morning. I know why would they care!?! Why do I need to tell Mumsnet? Why?? But I just want to grumble about some things!
They have seemingly made a good life financially from their YouTube blogs. I presume it's from them. I used to like the odd picture. Watch the odd video. In recent weeks they have done some bits and bobs to the garden. Absolutely fine. They put artificial grass down. Got the kids a new play park. Then fast forward a couple of months they have got a mini bar and a hot tub. Started rolling my eyes at them. Especially because they had someone trying to break in not long ago. But they still continue to tell the world what they own.
Last week the kids got a large rabbit hutch and some new pets. I saw it but scrolled past and didn't watch the video. Then the next day I was watching my Instagram stories and sue had wrote on a video that she wanted to thank everyone for their kind words and "Ellie" was feeling much better.
I read some comments (being nosey) as to what had happened to her daughter. It turned out the public had written some unkind things about the rabbits and their diet. This had led to one of her younger teens being upset. But it's ok!! Because sue sat with her and read the nice comments out and she felt happier!
what was going through my head whilst reading these comments was.....maybe it's time you stopped exposing your children to the public! Why is she allowing the public to make her kids sad? For the sake of freebies, attention and the feeling of being important? Because yes she's had 22 children and it was an interesting watch. But somehow she's completely lost her senses. She's turned her children into a TV show! She films all their birthdays. She shows everyone every single item they own. Toys/clothes etc. She's constantly accepting gifts from strangers!
I know I've followed them and for a long time I had no issue with it. But these kids are not celebrities. They have had their whole lives given to the world to judge. They are not going to live an adult life of luxury. The money will die off eventually. Then all these kids will be left with is the embarrassing reminders that everyone was watching their every move from the day they were born. They are now having to deal with abuse from the public and sue still can't stop because she loves that she can now get her hands on expensive items. I really hope they stop soon for those kids.
As a mum myself I just don't understand how she can do it! Why can't those poor children have anything without her telling the world 
I await a hundred posts saying you are too invested in this. But it really was unnecessary stress for her kids. I also don't think sue considers the risks of showing people what you own. Let's hope people don't start attempting to break in more often! That would have been enough for me to stop.
