No, she hasn't. Her friends are the people she goes to 'school' with. Virtual school that is!

Both these mothers could use some therapy.

I missed last week- it makes me v sad! Definitely joining part the free Caitlin campaign.

SchroSawMargeryDaw · 19/03/2013 21:47

I think Tracey could possibly use some valium tbh!

Oh no.

They only go to a Christian group?

All very Duggars isn't it?

Kithulu · 19/03/2013 21:48

I though it said she only home schooled 4 of them? I guessed this meant the eldest went to secondary school.

JazzAnnNonMouse · 19/03/2013 21:48

I think this programme is heavily edited though - they must go out and about!
The Salims (sp?) we're edited to show an extreme too I felt.

Hmm the kids seem happy

NuhichNuhaymuh · 19/03/2013 21:49

Didn't see last week either and only first bit of the first one (was attending to some of my 18 children.....)

JazzAnnNonMouse · 19/03/2013 21:50

I think girls and boys brigade are like brownies and scouts but slightly more goddy- my dh went to bb, he doesn't remember much god stuff tbh

SchroSawMargeryDaw · 19/03/2013 21:50

Kithulu Last week they were talking about home school and home nursery school and the oldest girl definitely does her schooling online.

Jazz I think there is enough she says to show that they really don't go out.

All the kids went to Boys/Girls brigade last week for some socialisation with human beings. But what about her mouth? Is it my telly? And how do they bloody well afford it?

Spero · 19/03/2013 21:51

They are all homeschooled, but don't know how effectively. Last week the eldest boy was helping the younger ones. I know these things are edited, but hat must happen a lot as she has five or six pre schoolers to,watch!

SchroSawMargeryDaw · 19/03/2013 21:51

Although I do hope that it isn't as bad as comes across.

OP posts:
JazzAnnNonMouse · 19/03/2013 21:51

I think I'd go mad if I didn't go out!
Can't just blame the mother though - they have fathers too!

Meglet · 19/03/2013 21:51

OH MY GOD!!!! They didn't even sleep alone?!!!!

And I think I'm mad.

NuhichNuhaymuh · 19/03/2013 21:51

No no no Tracy getting odder

Spero · 19/03/2013 21:52

Don't think the eldest two look happy at all.

SchroSawMargeryDaw · 19/03/2013 21:53

Jazz True but tbh she is a bit scary!

Meglet I am desperate for a room of my own. The fact most of these families the parents don't have their own room or any other space in the house I have no idea how they manage to keep getting pregnant!

Pollykitten · 19/03/2013 21:53

hmm awesome 40th birthday present.

SchroSawMargeryDaw · 19/03/2013 21:53

Even the cat looked terrified.

OP posts:
AnnabelKarma · 19/03/2013 21:53

So hang on, they have a 9 and 11 year old in their room?

Hmm. Unhealthy.

Andcake · 19/03/2013 21:55

She wonders what the neighbours will think of the goats' I'm sure the neighbours have lots of opinions on the whole set up!

JazzAnnNonMouse · 19/03/2013 21:55

Who have a 9 and 11 ye old in their room? I went for a wee!

SchroSawMargeryDaw · 19/03/2013 21:56

Would they even be allowed to keep all those animals in the back garden? Confused
