8 Hungry Passengers: #NoLeftovers | Part 4

[eloise92]

Each and every vlog of Ruby's gets more and more childish in the sense that it is obvious her target audience is 14 years and younger. She speaks to the camera in a very preachy juvenile manner.

Like her brother in law, Joel's, vlog today, Ruby's was also a snore fest today. Not view worthy.

On a different topic - I thought she was home schooling Russell's kindergarten this year? Based on their vlogs you would never know it. I think Russell is going to have a tough time in first grade both from an academic and social perspective. There does not seem to be much focus on learning for the youngest two which is surprising when their dad is a university science professor.

She decided to not home school and to just keep him back a year. Red shirt him or whatever it's called lol

Not only has there been a lack of academics but there has been a lack of socialising. He should be on playdates multiple times a week, doing a sport/ club (I know he did soccer for a bit but it needs to be a regular all year thing that he is doing something). It is just important for development and 'readiness to learn'. It is actually fine if you start school not knowing how to read etc. but you need to have learnt things like playing with others, group games, resolving problems, resolving problems with others, working on coordination and self-care, the beginnings of working with numbers even if you can't recognise written numbers etc. If you go into school without the academics and without the social and communication skills you're in for a tough time. Even if other kids are perfectly nice to you it is going to knock self-esteem.

I usually find all children cute, but there is something about Eve that makes me so annoyed. I do not find her cute at all.

I was watching old vlogs of E&J's, and Eve was an absolutely gorgeous baby. Big eyes, long brown baby hair, fair skin. Beautiful. But she's definitely in that awkward preschooler stage now where things are changing and she doesn't have that cute baby look anymore. She also has very buldged eyes, which I think it what stands out as not very cute.

Eve is still a cute little girl to me, I never noticed her as having very bulged eyes lol.

I am very pro-sports so may be biased, but I really think that Russell and Eve should both be put in more 'regimed' sports. For example gymnastics. Yes they may not actually become champs but they need to be taught discipline and having a busy timetable would do them both a lot of good. Russell really needs help with his confidence and his emotions and Eve is clearly going to be one of those kids who doesn't respect their mum but could learn respect elsewhere. Even something like juniour cub scouts (don't know what it's called) could be good for Russell. I know that learning an instrument can be beneficial and help you develop even if you aren't very good (Chad), but Russell really needs something more and I'll be impressed if they manage to get Eve to play and not destroy and instrument.

First 4mins of today's vlog was annoying AF even though I literally skipped thru it. I know that's mean. But why not edit it to be shorter. Argh

Idk if this was seen and discussed before... Therefore apologies if I am repetitive...

Seeing this anti-lgbt video that they shared once and then deleted was really interesting to me so I wanted to share...

Can you copy and paste the link to the vlog where she tells the viewers about deciding to hold back Russell for a year of school?

Russell seems to be a bright kid. I am surprised about that. Ruby is really holding his growth development back. Even though she is going to hold him back she could at least still be teaching him. I am sorry if her blogging is detrimental to the intellectual and social development of your child because you do not have the time to commit to the education of your child you should quit vlogging.

So I have been reading through old posts looking for when Ruby said she will be holding Russell back and he will start kindergarten instead of first grade. I found some posts in January indicating Russell us still using diaper pull ups. I wonder if this is also why she will be holding him back.

I actually like the entryway except for the mustard colored doors but I love the dark front door, curtains and the rug.
Those outfits the Ruby got Julie are just awful in my opinion.

Omg I totally forgot to comment on the outfits she got! The bottoms are fine, basic but interchangeable. The shirts were atrocious!!!!! Julie looks like she hates them too but she's too sweet to say anything. Why does she insist on buying "outfits". Like buying pieces specifically to go together, especially for kids. It's weird. Also, how is that she never knows her kids size. She always buys things way too big or way too small.

About those doors... (I watched today for the first time in a long time, but have seen them mentioned here and just saw them for myself for the first time) WHY would she do that? Oh my goodness. Those doors are the definition of atrocious!

Seriously though... did she ever say why she chose that or anything? Or was it just like "oh, by the way, we got yellow and orange doors," like that's just a normal thing?

It's because she's so lazy and and does the bulk of her shopping online which never ends well. Why not just go to the store and buy clothes that the kids could try on and see in person.

Thank God that precious dog finally got a new rug.

[thenightowl]

^last time they went to the store to try on clothes, the kids ran wild lol

It's now confirmed where the Griffiths girls got their horrendous sugary diet that they feed the children and husbands with. It's none other than their lovely mother who've also taught them everything else about life
Is there any other american out there who've tasted this recipe (toasted bread with lots of sugar and milk on top) and can support the Griffiths...?

Did you guys see the vlog when Ruby and Kevin went to Australia in 2015 and Jennifer babysat and brought so much candy to the grandchildren that it looked ridiculous, almost like a joke.
Also in another vlog when the kids went, I think to Jennifer's house, she just said that she didn't feel like cooking and gave them candy stuff instead.
These Griffith women were never taught about real food or how to cook properly, none of them know anything about nutrition. The problem is that they think too much of themselves and seem to know everything but really lack common knowledge about lots of basic stuff...

Shari, and what seems like most of the kids are up & dressed... while Ruby is still in her pj's and forgetting Chads camping trip again!

For someone that preaches motherhood & prides herself on being a mom, she's pretty shitty at a few things. Especially sleeping all day, ignoring her kids and being extremely selfish.

Fuck, sorry for double posting but, Ruby, definitely reads here, most likely every freakin day. It's just too obvious that a lot of things mentioned on here literally happen the next couple vlogs.
The hedgehog, how often they eat, Julie's hair, Russell's homeschooling. So, hi Rubes

Sooo Cody didn't even know his ABC going into kindergarten .. Russell know how to read and people think he will be behind??
He's also been in a classroom setting before.. have you not watched his preschool graduation vlog???

As much as Ruby annoys me all her kids are smart and talented in some way

Shary trying to open Julie shoe box annoyed the crap out of me like damn let the girl have her moment for once.
Also she is so conditioned to call everything nice she was just screaming "that's so nice Julie" before even seeing the actual shoe. Smh

In my opinion, it is completely inappropriate to let two small, ill-behaved children knock on people's doors trying to sell them crap. It's one thing to have a lemonade stand on your lawn - neighbors can choose whether or not to come. But bombarding people in their homes makes me very uncomfortable. Why do Ruby's children act like feral children?

We are inspiring Ruby with her vlogging not bad ...
I suspect that Julie's might be the only one thankful for us...in secret
Imagine that strangers have to remind Ruby and that husband of hers to acknowledge all their children and stop constantly excluding Julie (honestly poor child).
