We don't actually know what these children have to deal with at school or outside the youtube life but I can only imagine with the weird behavior that these Griffith's mothers sometimes put out. Both Olivia and Julie have indicated that they are getting teased so Chad might be dealing with the same issues. I pray for poor Abbie, I knew that her time would come someday. To bad Abbie won't say anything to please her mother who appreciate her for not expressing her true feelings about anything.
I can also sometimes feel sorry for Ruby who seems overwhelmed and knows nothing about the real world as she grew up isolated and wasn't taught basics things in life. One thing that irritates me about her is that she can't read her children and understand their needs after so many years of motherhood.
It wouldn't help, her mind is too far gone. She's raising her kids the same way she was brought up, except it's a different era and her ways are outdated and foolish. Youtube has actually helped these kids, think of all the things Ruby has opened up too because of the vlogs and comments.
Not too long ago, the kids didn't even have their own beds!!
