Re: myka stauffer
The vlog when Jim is waiting in the parking lot of the pet store - you can tell he's freaking out - like "what is this crazy bitch adding to my work now?"
Re: myka stauffer
So.. Myka thinks she needs a babysitter to handle their everyday life cause she can't, homeschooling is so overwhelming. Then goes and adds a puppy to the mix? What even. She is dumb, just plain dumb.
Run Jim Run. Except he wont, he might be the better parent, but he's no better person than Myka is for supporting her crazy antics.

Re: myka stauffer
Hi! I’m new here. I’ve been reading for long but finally managed to register. I usually like to give people the benefit of doubt but the way they filmed the pet shop episode was really bothering me. I’m from Finland and here pet stores do not sell cats or dogs. You can get them only from breeders and shelters. When I got my dog, I visited the breeder couple of times before she trusted that she can sell me one of her puppys and I will take good care of it. That was also way for me to see the living conditions for the dogs and see that it is not a puppy mill but a reputable breeder. (As well as word of mouth and online research about this breeder) I understand that we only see small part of the vloggers day/life but they are responsible what parts they show and how well they explain things.
Re: myka stauffer
It's pretty shocking that any random can go in on a wim and buy a dog to take home at that moment.

"Myka Stauffer
My son is currently not talking, babbles and says small words without meaning and we have tried picture boards and signs and he wants nothing to do with either. My question is do I just give him what I know he wants or keep working on the communication he throws fits when we try to work with him? Any tips or experience we have been home 5 weeks"
This woman had no business adopting a child. Especially from China, where they nearly always have special needs. He's 2 1/2...he's been home not even 2 months...fucking nurture the kid.

Re: myka stauffer
Yeah that seems like something that should be brought up with his Drs and occupational therapist, not random internet people.

Re: myka stauffer
I think the cracks in Myka's personality and sense of self are really showing through now.
She worked on getting Huxley home for so long and now he is here she buys a new dog? Why can't she be happy with what she has? Why does there always need to be something more?
Not to mention the fact that Jim is allergic to dogs. He had no idea she was buying a dog. She didn't either. She literally had a thought and ran with it without even asking him. Then he tries to save face by saying it was something they had been talking about. Stop covering for her Jim! Her lack of respect for him is unbelievable.
And in the midst of all this are four kids. Once of whom has just been plucked from all he knows and is getting used to a new life/family/culture/climate. He needed to be centre of attention for more than a few weeks. Not a new puppy.
The whole thing is so chaotic and really sad for the kids.

Re: myka stauffer
And they mentioned having about 30 people over for Thanksgiving?
How chaotic and confusing for Huxley. That kid needs calm, consistent family time.

Re: myka stauffer
I am deeply saddened by the way they are treating this little boy.
Personal: growing up, I had a chaotic childhood and was moved to the care of different family members several times, and eventually in to foster care. I can distinctly remember throwing a fit at age 7, over a year after I’d been in my current “home”, because I wasn’t feeling well and I missed my Mama. When I was a teenager, and moved to my foster family, it took me weeks to get comfortable enough to do pretty much anything without asking first. It was probably 6 months until I was ok to just go and get myself a drink or something to eat. I felt I had to be on guard, these people didn’t know me and I didn’t really know how things worked in their house. Now, I was old enough to understand what was going on, and stayed within the community that I was born into. I cannot even begin to imagine being this poor little boy, who doesn’t speak the language, doesn’t under the customs, doesn’t know these people at all - and apparently has a brain tumor to boot. My heart hurts, his world must be in absolutely turmoil

Re: myka stauffer
She clearly has no fucking idea what she's doing. She should get help from early intervention. They can help teach PECs and sign. Like she didn't even bother to learn any Chinese!!!bjaneb wrote:"Myka Stauffer

She needs to pair with him more. I get it's hard, cause he clearly is resisting and she honestly seems scared of him. And when that happens, then gradually try to pair signs with the mand. Like what Jim did in a past vlog with "more" was an ok attempt. There's so much more to teaching this stuff, that's why she needs professional help. You can't 'home school'/teach your kids every thing. Have a therapist come to the house.

Re: myka stauffer
This is so spot on! I thought the same thing when Jim was in the car with the four kids and it dawned on him that Myka was adopting a new dog. He is allergic?? That is crazy and shows her utter lack of respect for him that she wouldn't even run this by him first. She clearly has some mental deficiencies and I say that will all seriousness. She always has to be focused on the next big thing. Huxley's adoption process was focus for some time and now that he is here (and largely being ignored by her) she needs another focus. The dog was a quick fix. I really believe she'll be announcing a pregnancy very soon as her new fix.uklaydee wrote:I think the cracks in Myka's personality and sense of self are really showing through now.

Re: myka stauffer
I can only imagine how hard that must have been growing up in different homes all the time. You bring up some great points about how chaotic this must seem to Huxley who can't even understand the language of his new family and his surroundings are so different. Why Myka and Jim won't even attempt to learn a few words of his language is beyond me.storeynyx wrote:I am deeply saddened by the way they are treating this little boy.
