New thread for new series
obviously all this has happened in the past year
they would have been better filming this as it happened and showing it
as we have seen all their trips on Facebook and instagram if on it
E 1 - Chloe’s pregnancy takes a worrying turn

It makes me feel a bit sick thinking of her being so young and him classed as a adult, like why had nothing been done about it I don't understand, she was classed as a child so she can't say she gave consent, so whatvthey are now married and have lots if kids that's a cause for concern not a achievement.

How tv channels and companies want to be associated with this

Yes I watched it, could tell the bleeding scene was a set up I don't understand why anyone would want that aired on a TV programme anyhow, how disgusting. I can't watch any more of them there false and a bothered about looking good but can tell behind the scenes all not. I could go on and point things out but I'd be here all day. The children are not getting the attention they need, in the earlier days they used to get locked in bedrooms and now they get put on a plane to disney! Just a load of crap it's not about how much money you spend on a child its about time spent with child. No emotional support at all for them how could there be?

I have said before, but how any 2 adults can have enough one on one time for 22 children?
Im sure they can just manage basics, and older children help.
But with 22 there’s a good chance child with autism, another child with allergies, another stressed, another speech issues, another teeth, education help, etc etc.
Most average families just about make time for work, family, helping with school stuff, taking kids out, day to day life.

I agree, I feel it would be easy for things to get overlooked or certain needs could just got "lost" with a family that big. Babies and toddlers naturally need lots of attention and help with feeding, dressing, toilet training etc. At some points there would have been 4 pre school kids, plus noisy primary age kids, dogs etc something like an eating disorder might be easier for a teen to hide when parents are busy with (lots of) younger kids.
I'm always intrigued about how if one of them did need orthodontic treatment, or speech therapy, for example, would they have to traipse along to the appointment with multiple siblings in tow?

i think her emotional development stopped when she became pregnant at 12. Vile

I'm not sure if Sue has autism but she definitely is emotionally stunted. She's like a teenager.
She was pregnant at 13. That doesn’t make it any better I just wanted to correct that before the thread was jumped on/deleted.
After disappearing down a rabbit hole last night, I have a theory as to why channel 4 & 5 air this programme given the ages of Sue and Noel when she became pregnant. Perhaps they know more than we do regarding parentage of Chris. As looking at the situation on face value, I do find it odd that something so obvious and out there in the public domain has been overlooked.

This is why I suspect there may be more to it.

They can't possibly do any clubs like brownies/cubs, or sport. How would you get them all there with that many children. Such a shame. Prob could do after school stuff but even that could be a nightmare logistically.
I only have two (now early 20s) and they've been relatively easy, a few mid teen issues, but they have needed a fair amount of input from me and DH, and still do for certain things. I've no idea how I'd cope with that many DCs.

@Namechangedforthisonetoday Interesting. Like what!!
I made that sound so much more exciting than it was 😂 sorry louise! Let’s say speaking hypothetically, Chris wasn’t really Noel’s biological son. One or two things would potentially point to that.
