I was really annoyed when Neysa told Shiloh that he can't kiss a girl before he's married. WTF?! Couldn't she just tell him that he has to be older to date and kiss a girl? IF it's a girl he wants to kiss... I feel like the poor kid will probably stay in the closet is he does end up bing gay. Poor little guy.

Also, I totally think Hezekaiah will get married at 18, start having a bunch of kids by 20 and have a horrible job because thats all he knows. I really can't picture him as a working adult if he couldn't even stay at school for an entire week. School teaches you how to be independent, follow a schedule and socialise with your peers. I agree that in some areas public schools are horrible but from what we've heard so far that charter school seems fantastic and the other kids are thriving there. How is he going to transition from staying in his bubble by mommy's side to starting his own life and have a job that requires having a schedule and talking to other people? Cause let's face it, that kid's never going to college. Out of all the children he's the one I'm the most worried about.

I agree that there are concerns with the oldest boy, especially after today's vlog when he said math was hard. I don't think his mother has the ability to teach him in the way he needs. She does a lot of things well with the kids, but I don't think homeschooling is her strong suit. If Hezekiah has some social problems, and maybe even learning difficulties, I hope they can be picked up on and nurtured at least in some extra-curricular activities. Of course, school would be the best place (in my opinion) but I'm just going to hope that maybe he'll do enough stuff outside the home (youth group/Sunday school, martial arts, sports, etc.) that someone will pick up on it and take him under their wing. Wishful thinking maybe, but I'd like to thing there's still hope for improvement. He seems like a very lovely child with some significant but not insurmountable social anxiety. I could also be way off base.

That irks me too...Duggar family values...anyone?

I honestly dont think that its a matter of going to school that teaches you these things,I was homeschooled from 4th grade until i graduated and i'm fine,Its all what your parents do to make sure you arent turning into a hermit.Which,They CANT do that,because if they do,Their kids will realize how fucking quack that their parents are and stray away,and god forbid,Rebel.

How the heck does Eden not have her rabies vaccine yet?????

Probably because they haven't even taken her to the vet yet. They really seem to neglect that poor dog since her whole purpose in this household is to be Ebby's punching bag. Why bother?

[damondaniel]

She even says in the new video that Ebby was extremely aggressive before his PANDAS treatment and would have 3-5 "aggression fits" a day, toward himself and other people. But she won't admit he was aggressive towards his dog? ok lol

I feel terrible for those kids. They're all pushed to the side for her precious Ebby. She also has some of the worst names for her kids on YouTube. I cannot stand this family omfg.

Thank GOD i'm not the only one,Oh lord i just knew i'd be the worlds worst for saying that-

Neesa (sp?) is starting to get snaaaaarky in her comments. Her nicey nice act is crumbling. Whoever has been saying the extreme opposites of their ways is 100% right. “Bone broth....vegan”. She’s all over the place. I still say their channel 100% changed when they went to some vlogging conference a while back. They definitely took something from that to try to be super click-baity and suuuuper cringey. I’m not sure what’s in it for them except trying to monetize their vlog. At what cost? Their kids are going to hate them some day. She talks about how her parents “stole her childhood”. She’s stealing hers in a different way.

[TheOneWhoBlogs]

did anyone else see this and cringe a litte?

Why those titles so close together,Man?
Maybe im looking too far into it but it seems kinda awkward to me.

So in today's video Neysa showed Ebby standing on the passenger seat while waiting for the kids at school. OK fine the car wasn't moving. So let's be real and say that even though I would never allow my kids to do that, I know that she's not the only person in the world that would let their kid unbuckle a seatbelt in a situation like that. But she did get a lot of comments on that earlier in the day because Ebby is clearly jumping all over the car and even standing on the center console hanging out of the sunroof. All of that she replied kind of rudely to. Later on in the day, I saw pretty much all of those comments about that had been deleted. However, there was another part of the video today that really got my attention while reading the comments.... Once Shiloh nd Ezrah got in the car after school, you can clearly see that Neysa is driving down the street, pretty fast, while Shiloh is Vlogging. His seatbelt is completely unbuckled. In fact, you can even hear that tell tale beep a car does to remind you that you're driving without your seatbelt on. There were several comments this morning saying something like "I can't believe you let your kids drive in the car without wearing a seatbelt!"... Neysa clearly thought they were talking about Ebby jumping all over the car and hanging out of the sunroof while parked in the parking lot. She was pretty rude with her replies saying how the kids get bored in line and since they aren't moving, they let the kids unbuckle and they feel like it's safe. Still extremely dangerous if someone was to hit them while they were parked and Ebby was hanging out the sunroof but fine, whatever.... But.... Someone actually replied to her comments and gave an exact time stamp of when Shiloh was vlogging while unbuckled. They called her out. Said she was driving, and fast. Said they could see his seatbelt latch was unhooked. And said something like "I don't think they were talking about when you were parked, I think they were talking about when you were clearly driving fast down the road with Shiloh not wearing a seatbelt." She deleted that entire thread. When someone made the comment again about why is she driving while her kids are not wearing seat belts and said they noticed it the day before too, she AGAIN tried to say they were parked waiting for the kids at school so she let Ebby unbuckle. And later in her comment she tried to say Shiloh is sitting in a booster. "But thanks for the comment", she said. So freaking rude. Then, when I looked again, someone replied and said they were surprised to see she had deleted so many comments about how Shiloh wasn't wearing a seatbelt and how could he be in a booster if his seatbelt is visible behind him? LOL. Then they commented again saying that Shiloh was obviously sitting in the front seat and when Ebby was jumping all over the car, you could see they didn't have a booster seat in the front seat. And they also quoted Utah law that kids under 12 are required to sit in the back seat and that booster seats are not allowed in the front seat! Hahaha. I laughed so hard! She totally got caught in a huge lie today. Wonder if that string of comments will still be there when I wake up tomorrow?

[dahell]

She’s coming unraveled with the comments. She should get out while she’s “ahead”. Stop oversharing. Stop the act. She can’t handle the feedback and I don’t think it’s fair to her children that she shares (or allows them to share at a young age) so many intimate details. Oh well, mama needs her “vintage baby clothes” money I guess?

[Snarkadoodle Doo]

She has always rubbed me the wrong way, but I find most of her kids are really precious, so I kept watching for a bit. I can't watch every day anymore. Between her fakeness and the lies and the behavior from some of those kids, I just can't do it. I have enough chaos to deal with in my own every day life, I don't need to watch it on their YouTube channel too. It's funny how she tells people to inspire people with their stories, but she doesn't actually TELL any. And anything that actually does come out of her mouth is proven to be a lie within the next few videos.

[TheOneWhoBlogs]

did the 'vintage' outfits on shepheard bother anyyone else? Like...Every single one of them looked very girly,and he was a beautiful kid but i was sure he was a girl at first.

[natalka81]

The manipulation of the truth, whatever the truth may be, seems particularly bad on this channel. "Coming unraveled" is a perfect way to describe it.

[Snarkadoodle Doo]

Yes! And the lies are about such stupid and trivial things most of the time. The thing that I found the most interesting/entertaining recently was during the gender reveal. When Jason accidentally set the confetti popper off before they were set up like Neysa wanted. She screamed "What did you do????". Like she didn't just scream it like it startled her, as you might expect someone to react. She screamed it in this blood curdling tone that actually made me think she was going to kill him. Like truly kill him. But they were both off camera. The kids were on camera and looked terrified. Then next clip, Neysa trying to blow it off no say she was surprised and I don't remember what words she used, but she totally tried to downplay her level of insanity. It seemed so crazy and so, I don't know.... Off? If you haven't, go watch the gender reveal video, it's an interesting one. Maybe not the whole thing though. Her videos tend to be way longer than they need to be. Personally I don't like "family vloggers" where you only see the mom narrating and barely ever see the kids.

[natalka81]

I would be pretty much fine with the truth in all of these cases. "I lost it at Jason when he popped the confetti by accident", "Shiloh was in the front seat without a seatbelt while we were driving. I won't do it again", "Ebby's diagnosis is none of your business. If we want to give him a service dog trained by a 12 year old then we will do that", "I pull my kids out of school on and off because I am having trouble figuring out what's best for them right now", "We actually do eat quite a bit of junk food and the McDonald's vlog was basically a gimmick" All of these things are more or less okay- not necessarily what I would do maybe but real life stuff that happens. When it's covered up, manipulated, and changes all the time, I get suspicious. I mean, I know she's not going to say things the way I did there, but honesty is generally just a better way to go in my opinion.
