Re: Chloe and Beans | Part 8
That hideous ruffled shirt Pearl is wearing may be the ugliest item of clothing yet.
Re: their anemic, unhealthy looks...Chloe's mentioned/kissed up to themothermoon in her ig stories a few times, and I know it's not a fair comparison lookswise because tmm's kids have a totally different complexion/racial make up, but they look sooo much healthier for vegan kids! Energetic, filled out faces, they help prepare really yummy looking meals. But I think they also use a lot more meat/dairy substitutes and supplements. (I know Chloe NOW has mentioned iron supplements but for a long time she didn't/would insist they got everything they needed from their gruel diet.) Not to say I'm a huge fan of themothermoon, way too into essential oil shilling for my taste, but they're sure a lot more appealing than the scruffy, pasty Dunstans in their clown clothes!

Re: Chloe and Beans | Part 8
My kids are Vegan. It can be done safely. We routinely see a registered dietitian and have labs done. Kids need fat to grow brains. She put them suddenly on a diet much lower in fat and protein poor kids nevermind it all seems mushy.abimaee wrote: ↑Sun Aug 11, 2019 9:53 pmYeah. It's all too busy it would give me anxiety constantly. Too many colours and too much happening always.DoodleBop2 wrote: ↑Sun Aug 11, 2019 8:01 amThe kids were cuter when they didn't seem malnourished and anemic. These kids don't look like other Vegan YouTuber kids who seem so bright and full of life. I get that these kids are fair but this is beyond that. They seemed healthier and happier before they had to become vegan to serve mom's orthorexia.
I don't think kids should be vegan so young. No way! They're too fragile and it's highly unlikely they're getting all the things they need. Too easy to do irreversible damage to their brains. Mum is just trying to stay relevant anyway she can.

We'll you're going the right way about it! I don't think that is what she is doing. Her meals always look Instagram worthy not brain food worthy.
They need more than spinach and quinoa.
I'm glad you see a dietitian to help you and them. I would be too scared to be honest.

Re: Chloe and Beans | Part 8

Re: Chloe and Beans | Part 8
My sister's kids can't have lots of things either so she needs to get creative. She has 3 boys and her husband is never home til late and her food still looks better than chloes! I feel sorry for the kids really.DoodleBop2 wrote: ↑Tue Aug 13, 2019 5:27 amWe didn't have a choice my kids have multiple food allergies.

Re: Chloe and Beans | Part 8
Also, Neysa, for the record:
“The coating is a safe, natural part of the fruit. Known as the "bloom," the waxy, silvery-white substance on the surface of grapes, blueberries, and certain plums acts as a barrier against insects and bacteria and helps to seal in the fruit’s moisture.The bloom is also a sign of freshness, since it fades with time and handling.”
Stop showing us the same video of you using oils to strip the natural coating off fruit and then claiming it’s pesticides and “chemicals”. It’s not. By all means wash your fruit and vegetables, but if your oils are strong enough to strip natural layers off things maybe you want to stop boasting about how safe and gentle they are

Re: Chloe and Beans | Part 8
Wait...she goes for iron whilst iron is at least in leafy greens, but doesn't give them B12 and Fit D? I would at least give them B12, VitD and Omega3, the last just in case, plus some iron supplement. I would give all of them to my child even if he isn't vegan actually...ShudnaB3 wrote: ↑Mon Aug 12, 2019 12:50 amThat hideous ruffled shirt Pearl is wearing may be the ugliest item of clothing yet.

I haven’t watched the Beans in a while.
Nice to see nothing has changed.

Re: Chloe and Beans | Part 8
I dont know why but their style is both cute sometimed but also cringey. I cant watch her videos the way she talks makes me feel like she talks to people like they are slow...I wonder if these kids have any personality of their own or if its constructed by their mom and she controls everyone even her husband. The older kids should have a say in their outfits they wear clothes either too small or too big.
Just...an odd family.

Re: Chloe and Beans | Part 8
I don’t know if anyone noticed but Chloe liked and commented on an Instagram post of her former BFF Ashleigh.
I wonder what happened there. Are they friends again?
Also in the video about books she muted what Evan says about who they were hanging out with. Maybe it was Ashleigh?

Re: Chloe and Beans | Part 8
Yes I had noticed Chloe started following her again and liked her recent pic of Caspian.... I was also wondering about the bleeping of the friends names.Gigi7 wrote: ↑Tue Aug 27, 2019 5:49 amI don’t know if anyone noticed but Chloe liked and commented on an Instagram post of her former BFF Ashleigh.

Only a couple of weeks ago Chloe had replied to someone's comment on a pic saying they were no longer friends, and Ashleigh has stated the same on her Q&A in her stories.

Re: Chloe and Beans | Part 8
The hair situation with those poor children is just absurd. It is entirely possible to grow hair out while also keeping it trimmed and tidy. They all look utterly ridiculous and I don't believe Chloe for a minute when she says that it is their choice. They are obviously complaining enough that she keeps their hair clipped and tied out of their faces. They are going to be so embarrassed looking back on these videos when they are older.

Re: Chloe and Beans | Part 8
In their most recent vlog Chloe tells all the kids to not go on the trampoline multiple times, Otto then gets on the trampoline anyway and the other kids follow him. Chloe then just says "Whatever"... yea nice parenting

The way she ties back their hair out of their faces looks so silly and then they go in public like that.

Yep so bad! she does realise boys can have long hair and still look tidy right?DoodleBop2 wrote: ↑Mon Sep 02, 2019 4:49 pmThe way she ties back their hair out of their faces looks so silly and then they go in public like that.
either get hair trimmed so it is still long but also tidy or tie it back properly further back on their heads with those small elastics, instead of at the front of their heads. Both would make them look less messy!
Also, why do they wear tracksuits all the time! it is spring in Australia now and is starting to get warm!!

Re: Chloe and Beans | Part 8
She always dresses the kids like it's freezing I don't understand why.

Re: Chloe and Beans | Part 8
It must be expired now, but did you guys see in her q and a stories about homeschooling she says the three older boys trialled school for a week earlier this year? All the boring things she vlogs and that wasn't one of them...?! Strange.

Re: Chloe and Beans | Part 8
Yes I followed those stories. I guess Chloe didn't want to vlog that for privacy? As it would be hard to film them in the uniforms.
One thing Chloe doesn't have right is how the kids would get into uni. It's not as easy as just doing a short course, you would have to do at least a year at TAFE, pass and then you maybe to get into uni, but it's all very competitive.
I think Chloe got on her high horse about her homeschooling. 6 kids to homeschool over the next 14 years is a big commitment for 2 unqualified teachers.

Re: Chloe and Beans | Part 8
She doesn't allow the kids to form their own opinions. They constantly hear how awful school is and how it was boring, how kids are chained to desks for eight hours a da y. Besides is a week really enough time to know if they liked it?
