Interesting! I’ve never been on food stamps or anything like that so I’m not sure about the laws/qualifications. I do know she stated when the lived in Oregon that they were on food stamps and both, food stamps and wic when they were in Idaho. Regardless, definitely not a situation you would want to bring a baby into!mommaof2cuties wrote:For food stamps they count everyone above 18 in the homes income, even her moms income would be countedLolislol26 wrote:I’m 99% sure they do get food stamps. Nicole and Sean are not married so only Nicole’s income is counted. When they lived in Oregon they did a food haul, everything they bought was at the dollar store and Nicole said they used food stamps! It makes me so angry that they feed Aleia garbage and dress her poorly when they buy cigarettes, alcohol, energy drinks, new TVs, etc. the first house they lived in in Oregon Aleia didn’t even have a proper bed and they bought a TV!sleep84 wrote:Maybe the government will give her money with this new baby? How in the world you even get to have sex in that situation?? Pardon the bluntness.. but … WHERE?? Were they doing it with her mom in the house? Eww. Were they doing it with ALEIA in the room? It can't be… Oh Jesus.
This must DEFINITELY need money from the government or food stamps. How can Tayler afford ehr kids? Nicole must have done it to help herself back on her feet. Anyone knows the financial details of a situation like that?

Re: Aleiasteenmama Part 1
I’m happy for her in the sense that she does seem like a good mother and this baby will be very loved but I am just so disappointed in her. I was rooting for her to get her life together and get on their feet again, move out of her mums house and get their own place and then maybe have a baby. They just are not in a position to be having another baby right now, in the past year they have been homeless and couch surfing with relatives in Nevada before moving in to her mums house in Idaho, which has not gone well in the past. It’s just so unstable for Aleia and I don’t think another baby needs to be brought into that. Hopefully over the next 6+ months until the baby is born they get it together and move in to their own place. I want her to succeed, I really do.

Re: Aleiasteenmama Part 1
I used to really like Nikole and I still like some parts. In her recent video, she didn't allow Aleia to go on a field trip because of bad behavior which I appreciate since she is teaching her consequences. But she also seems really surprised that Aleia doesn't have great behavior at school and seems to think it could be ADHD, which I get, it could be. But it also could be that all of Aleia's life has been unstable and moving from place to place and never being in any type of formal education. She's not behaving in school because she's never been in a school environment. All I hope is that for this next baby, Aleia puts him/her in preschool.
She also talked about how she cut her hours at work. REALLY? This is the time that you should be working your ass off, not taking less and less shifts. She say she needs a lifestyle change, that her current life isn't enough. I get it, I really do. I get not being happy with where you are in life, but you have one child and another on the way. You need to be able to support them. If Maggie hadn't had a fan to donate money for a new car, they'd be screwed. And she still wouldn't think it's important to get more hours at her work. Like I wish someone close to her would say "You don't have money for a car or a baby and you are continuing to cut your hours? Where is the logic in that?" I get she wants to be a SAHM but she can't afford to. She's just lazy.
If she wants to get out of the place she is in life she needs to take whatever money the government will give her for college and takes classes at her community college. That is honestly the only way she'll be able to dig herself and her family out of poverty. But I think she lacks the motivation for that.

Re: Aleiasteenmama Part 1
I do wonder why Aleia is acting up at school. I think a big part of it could be that she has never spent any time in a school environment and also she has never really spent a lot of time with other kids her age so she doesn’t know how to deal with other kids. She’s always been the centre of attention and at school she isn’t (it will also be interesting to see how she transitions from being an only child to a big sister). Diet can also play a part in how kids behave and they don’t seem to have the best diet, they eat a lot of sugar and processed food and all those additives can wreak havoc on kids and make them act out. But I do think it’s great that she is showing Aleia that there are consequences to her actions and her behaviour will make her miss out on things.
I still think it’s crazy they are having another baby in their current situation. I don’t think Nikole has said whether or not they planned this baby but I would assume they did considering they went so long without a pregnancy. I agree that it’s insane that nikole is working less and not more in the lead up to this baby coming. Sean seems really lazy too, remember how long he was unemployed for? He should be looking for a second job to try make some more money before his baby comes. They don’t have their own house, all 3 of them share a bedroom and the house seems so crowded. It’s just not the best situation to be bringing another baby in to. Nikole is a good mom and I want her to do well but it just doesn’t seem like a good time and she’s still so young, what’s the rush? Go to school, get a good job, get your own house and then have a baby. They need to get their shit together.
It’s so crazy to me that someone bought them a car. It’s so weird to me that all three of them have jobs, they all live in their mothers home and yet they couldn’t pool enough money together to get a car themselves. What do they all spend their money on?

Re: Aleiasteenmama Part 1
I agree with both of you. I like Nikole a lot, but I feel more urgency about her life than she does haha. Having another baby is going to make it harder for her to obtain a “lifestyle change.” Exponentially harder. And now is not the time to be cutting hours for sure.
I really feel like I’m taking crazy pills when I watch these YT moms. If I were in her shoes, I’d be freaking out. Working, working, working. Keeping my room and house tidy. Her mom has three adult children living there, plus a grade schooler. I’d be worried she’d snap again and kick me out.

Re: Aleiasteenmama Part 1
It really bothers me when you can hear a YouTubers smoke alarm chirping in the background because the person Is too lazy to change the batteries. IT TAKES TWO MINUTES AND CAN SAVE YOUR FAMILYS LIFE.
Nicole has made about three videos now with it going off in the background and she doesn't upload frequently so it has definitely been over a month because I recall first hearing it beging of September.

Re: Aleiasteenmama Part 1
So she is about to have a baby and Sean is unemployed again he’s unemployed a whole lot more than he is employed. It makes no sense that he would quit his job and nikkole would keep working when she is going to need time off soon when the baby is born.

Re: Aleiasteenmama Part 1
Right and her reasoning for not wanting him to work because it's 12 hrs. Sounds like he didn't want to do that. He seems like a real winner, he needs to man up idk why she's still with him, she's been supporting him their whole relationship and being pregnant he should be the one stepping up and supporting herstaceybrax wrote:So she is about to have a baby and Sean is unemployed again he’s unemployed a whole lot more than he is employed.

Yeah the reason was ridiculous. And because their car broke down again so it’d be too hard for him to get a ride to work. How do they plan on paying to fix the car with no job? You’d think they’d be happy about the extra hours at work because more hours=more money. He is forever unemployed and never stays in a job long and that would drive me insane. There is nothing more unattractive than a lazy man.
And she has cut her hours back at work, which is fine because she’s pretty heavily pregnant at this point, but with him quitting and her cutting back hours they must be struggling. And she says that they want to move out of her mothers house before the baby is born or soon after.. I don’t know how they think they’ll be able to afford it.
I want to like her and I want to root for her but then they do things like this and it makes it hard.

Re: Aleiasteenmama Part 1
I'd be rooting for her a hell of a lot more once she drops shawn and realizes he's just a dead weight.

Yeah 12 hours are long shifts but you do what you have to do, so many people work 12 hour shifts everyday. And if he really hates it he could be looking for a new job in the meantime, then when you have a new job lined up he can quit. It drives me crazy how he’s always quitting jobs and then he’s just unemployed for extended periods of time , they have 2 kids to support and live in her mothers house it’s time he grew up.sleep84 wrote:^ then she would be , what? single mom with 2 different ex baby daddies?

Nikkole seems like a hard worker and is willing to work the shit jobs and the long hours to pay her bills and support her family but she shouldn’t be having the responsibility of being the sole earner while she’s heavily pregnant meanwhile Sean’s biggest job is taking Aleia to school in the morning.

Yeah, I mean I'm all for equality, women working just as much as men, women being providers and men choosing to be stay at home parents if they want to, but if you can't afford it you shouldn't.

He is not even making an effort to help Nicole with her YT channel, he could vlog. She is still the mother, not him. Sorry to say this but it's more important for a Young girl to have the mom around than the step dad. I fell like she could have done something better with her time and her life in the past years, if not for Sean dragging her down and being a burden. He's not a bad guy like Dallas was, but he is still a deadbeat.

I completely agree about Sean being a deadbeat. I know he has a felony so it’s hard to get a “really good” job but at this point flipping burgers at McDonald’s is better than nothing. An honest paycheck is better than no paycheck. Sean has always been this way, if a job wasn’t going his way he’d quit. I would have much rather had my husband work 3-4 12 hours shifts making great money with benefits than absolutely nothing at all. I would rather work the opposite shift then my husband and have different days off if that meant we weren’t relying on others for money, rides, or even a place to live.

Exactly! This is a pattern with Sean and I would not be having it if he was my boyfriend. It’s completely fine to hate your job but you find a new job before you quit, especially when you have a pregnant girlfriend and a kid to take care of. I wonder if it’s something that nikkole just plays off that she supports him doing but it’s really something they fight about.Lolislol26 wrote:sleep84 wrote:Yeah, I mean I'm all for equality, women working just as much as men, women being providers and men choosing to be stay at home parents if they want to, but if you can't afford it you shouldn't.

She said that when they moved back to Idaho (?) they almost broke up and I wonder if his inability to hold on to a job for more than 5 minutes played in to that.

I know she mentioned that he quickly found a job because he felt her pulling away or something along those lines.
Regardless, he’s nothing special and pure dead weight to me. I’d rather be a single mother of 2, living with my Mom doing my best than have a lazy pos boyfriend, 2 kids, and with living with my Mom.
Nikkole has such high goals and aspirations but with her work ethic and Sean she will never achieve even a quarter of it.

He looks a lot like Aleia. Im glad he’s here, that was the longest pregnancy ever
I’m happy for them that they were able to get their own house before he got here too.
