I watched it. I find it all a bit disingenuous that it’s suggested they do it all themselves just using the pie business as support. I also feel very sorry for the people living in the attached house.

Blondeshavemorefun · 24/12/2021 14:15

Yes we never see the neighbours

Wonder who lives there

Do they try to move

5k on presents equals £227 each. Not a huge amount per older child.

Fadingout · 24/12/2021 14:35

It’s all just a bit bright and shiny and I don’t think really reflects real life.

True but guess younger kids get maybe £100 and more on older

Yes per person it's not outrageously extravagant but I'm not sure that many families with only 1 parent working ft would have 5-7k to spend on presents unless their job was very well paid which they have previously claimed the pie shop job isnt
But they obviously have additional income from TV and youtube/instagram

After watching the US equivalent it is clear there's a lot that could be going on that is not touched upon.

I will simply never get over their ages when he got her pregnant. No amount of pretending they are a happy family and everything is great will ever make the situation right or acceptable in my opinion.

BedknobsNoBroomsticks · 24/12/2021 15:34

It all seemed a bit phoney and made up for the camera. No way they would leave present shopping that late, if they do they are quite silly because they have so many to buy for.

Most of their income is presumably from YouTube/tv work now.

LemonViolet · 24/12/2021 15:54

No they do have 22 children, 21 living. 7 grandchildren as well, according to Wikipedia!

GoodnightGrandma · 24/12/2021 15:57

I believe they breed the dogs and sell the puppies.
Have we ever seen them walked ?

Yep. I can't watch them, they are dreadful people and useless parents
GoodnightGrandma · 24/12/2021 15:57

How long until this thread is pulled ?
We all know that we can’t discuss this family on here.

What was it and where did you watch it please?.

Rarely and usually on tv, never on their vlogs.

And yes the thread probably will be pulled. There's loads of threads about them on tattle life (I think it's called)

Same here. I just can't look past it. No amount of they stayed together and had more babies makes it ok, infact it just makes it even worse. Sad

Jesus! £227 is more than adequate for any age child!

That's an awful lot of money of presents! Surely buying Christmas and birthday presents for so many is a full time job in itself!

RockPaperScissorLizardSpock · 24/12/2021 17:18

This must be the Duggar Family in Arkansas, USA. Their eldest son has just been found guilty of not very nice things, and I think there is a lot more going on than we realise.

CrimbleCrumble1 · 24/12/2021 17:19

I loved it, no judging from me. I was laughing so much at the huge block of cheese that lasts a week.
I love all the Christmas specials.
