Re: Ballinger Family. Part 1
And it's about damn time. These YouTubers have been serving their children up to the internet for money, and it's about time they got some protection. Especially since their parents won't.

Re: Ballinger Family. Part 1
If they did any amount of looking into their analytics they'd know who is watching those videos. Since I fully believe they know I fully believe they're okay with the perv views. They're okay with their child being in a porn because hey it's technically innocent. Fuck you you know and don't care because it pays your mortgage.

Not only does it pay the mortgage, it provides a lifestyle that most vloggers have neither the education nor the skills to earn otherwise.DoodleBop2 wrote:If they did any amount of looking into their analytics they'd know who is watching those videos.

I am having lots of schadenfreude. I just feel bad for the kids. It's not their fault.

Re: Ballinger Family. Part 1
I feel so bad for these kids. Now they will use this money they've made off their kids to protect themselves when people begin to question how hinky this all is. They've bought themselves this air of respectability and it's all a sham.lmmomSD wrote: ↑Fri Feb 22, 2019 9:25 amNot only does it pay the mortgage, it provides a lifestyle that most vloggers have neither the education nor the skills to earn otherwise.DoodleBop2 wrote:If they did any amount of looking into their analytics they'd know who is watching those videos.

Re: Ballinger Family. Part 1
100%. She thinks it’s fine because she “monitors the comments” uhhh girl you can’t monitor who’s going to watch the public video though, or where on the internet they’re going to link it. I would be absolutely horrified if I realized I’d been putting my child in that kind of situation, but no she’s just filled with entitlement and greed.LexiRae wrote:It’s absolutely SICKENING that Jessica puts money over her child’s safety! It’s not appropriate for a 5 year old boy to be doing strip teases or in skin tight outfits for the world to see period. Its so sad that a mother needs YouTube to tell her to protect her child. I wish YouTube would just delete her whole channel for child exploitation.lmmomSD wrote:This is why:

Re: Ballinger Family. Part 1
She’s also talking like he’s being punished. As if he even knows whether the video is monetized or not. They can still film his gymnastics, they just don’t need to show it.
Maybe protect your kid ffs. You Tube isn’t the problem this time. Idiot parents are. This isn’t new information. Ellie and Jared were directed to a pedophile website years ago that had videos of their kids. Did they stop filming them naked/half clothed? Nope. Creepily started doing it more. That’s why these YTers are pissed. As long as THEY are just innocently posting videos, they don’t see anything wrong with it.

Re: Ballinger Family. Part 1
They also don't know how many times those videos have been downloaded and reuploaded to perv sites or made into gifs. I understand the OG YouTubers not understanding what they were getting into but this kid is 5 so YouTube was already huge when he was born.

Re: Ballinger Family. Part 1
Oh. Em. Gee. Are you serious? The Mechams (whom I can't stand) did that? I'm new to this. Good Lord! I tell ya I've been amazed there are so many narcissists in the world as I keep finding more and more channels. This is getting crazier and crazier. Farther down the rabbit hole I go.HelloSweetie wrote: ↑Fri Feb 22, 2019 10:11 am She’s also talking like he’s being punished. As if he even knows whether the video is monetized or not.

Re: Ballinger Family. Part 1
This is completely innocent a child is doing a sport!
Several of the demonitized vids have full crotch exposed splits in the thumbnail. They cannot make me believe they're that stupid.

I feel like Bailey would benefit from going to public or private school.leeiacoccapuffs wrote:I am not one to talk shit about the kids, but I just cannot stand Bailey. She is always acting for the camera and they encourage it. It's weird. She is so fake!
And her voice. Nails on a chalkboard. I watched Colleen's story today that she re-shared from Jessica, and poor baby Flynn looked terrified of Bailey singing to him, and you could tell Colleen was trying to tolerate her singing. They're forcing their kids to be performers, and maybe they're not? I just don't believe in giving your kids false hope. Bailey has other talents, encourage those. PLEASE! And encourage her to be herself.

Re: Ballinger Family. Part 1
I think that Bailey is a very sweet and sensitive little girl. Chris and Jess have done her a huge disservice and have failed her as their parents. By coddling her and not exposing her to regular children, she is emotionally stunted. It is very obvious that she has a beautiful soul, but acts like a girl half her age because that’s all she has been allowed to be.Baconsgirl wrote:I feel like Bailey would benefit from going to public or private school.leeiacoccapuffs wrote:I am not one to talk shit about the kids, but I just cannot stand Bailey.

Re: Ballinger Family. Part 1
Joining a private Christian middle school would even be good. That’s probably the only thing her parents would go for and honestly that’s probably the only place she’d fit in at this point, the poor kid.jspo97 wrote:I think that Bailey is a very sweet and sensitive little girl.

Re: Ballinger Family. Part 1
I'm so glad I finally found this thread! I've been following these clowns for 4 years!
Let me begin with: I dont like them. At all. I think they are entitled and narcissistic. I think they think the whole world revolves around them. I also think they play favorites with their kids. They love Bailey because she is the only girl. The love Parker because he is ~different~. But the other two? Barely see them. I swear I feel like I only see Parker and Bailey on stories and videos, and it could be that those are the two that enjoy the attention more, but I'm going to say no.
Second of all: They need to discipline their dang kids. It's fine to have a herd of children, but teach them some manners! They are so loud and in your face all the time, and Jessica encourages it. They are going to be nightmares as teenagers.
The one I cant stand the most is Jessica. Do you think YouTube moms have problems taking criticism and block anyone who disagrees with their parenting? Well Jessica invented that sport. She is the queen of blocking anyone and everyone who dares to say something about her family that doesnt align with her perfect view. She doesnt just block either, she gets mean about it.
Lastly, I'm not fond of Parker. I think it's his personality (dont tell me it's a theater kid thing because I was a theater kid and no one I ever met was that loud and "on" all the time as a child). I understand they want to let parker Express himself, but like dress your damn kid right. I dont think any child should be out in public in just a leotard. Leotards are for dancing and gymnastics, not lounging around the house making YouTube videos. If your kid dresses themselves fine, but double check that their outfit matches. Parker can wear feminine clothes, that's not the issue, but he needs to dress neatly.
If you read this essay, congrats. I have been on Gossip Garden for several years with this family, and I'm so happy to have a place to vent here. I might have gotten carried away.
I just want to end with: my disdain is NEVER for the children. I think Chris, Jessica, and all their family members have raised these children into what they are today. My dislike is not for Parker or Bailey or any of their children. I dislike the adults for failing to shape these children into polite, functioning members of society.

Re: Ballinger Family. Part 1
Poor little polite Jacob clearly hated all the Jojo Siwa clothes they had to open on camera. Jessica is oblivious to the kids actual feelings and just wants them to be perfectly mannered robots.

Re: Ballinger Family. Part 1
I came looking for their thread because of this too. Jessica irks me for some odd reason and the kids are weirdly annoying by always trying to be polite.actuallydear wrote:They’re expecting again.

I actually dont mind this family that much, but Bailey's response was weird... She already has three younger siblings why would she be surprised, or even want another?

Re: Ballinger Family. Part 1
Aw, I feel like poor Bailey’s social skills are gonna be very lacking as an adult. I wish they’d let her be around other kids who aren’t also homeschooled Christians.
