C&K: The Struggle is Real...ly Hard to Relate (Part 14)

[lmmomSD]

Did anyone else see that Britany and Cory started a joint Instagram account? And it has some #hellofresh stuff on it... my guess is they are going to start vlogging and are fishing for advertisers.

Brittany already had a channel, and Grandberry mentioned it in the homecoming vlog. That'll be interesting.

I know she did. I'm thinking maybe she and Cory will have a channel together now? Or maybe she'll restart her old channel? I actually think I would enjoy watching her vlogs. She seems pretty fun-loving and entertaining although she's really loud so not sure if that would get annoying after a while...

I just wonder though-- Cullen and Katie try to hide their last name. Brittany is open about hers, and her history is super easy to find on Google. I can't imagine that would please Katie at the very least.

The kids were so cute in their costumes!! Gaines' excitement from getting the pink in her hair was contagious. That girl is precious. \
Also.. HOLY CRAP that MDO program is HUGE! They must have a prek or kindergarten there too, or maybe have classes for every age group up too Prek age bc that was a TON of kids and based on what we have seen neither of the kids have a huge amount of kids in their class (based on the name tags on the door and the number of snacks they made).
I had to laugh at Cullen's Twix dad joke.. I'll have to pull that one on my husband, he is the KING of dad jokes.. lol he will be impressed.

If it is the private school that I think it is, they go through Middle School. Kindergarten is not part of the MDO. They also have preschool separate from MDO. I know many people that go there and it is a fantastic school/program.

Is it no longer frowned upon to film other people’s children without permission when you’re a large YouTuber? I was surprised they didn’t blur out faces of the other kids in the parade or just zoom in on only Brooks and Gaines.

Hahaha! You can keep thinking it’s fancy if you’d like.

Didn't they do that when they got asked to speak at that school about vlogging? They filmed the kids if I remember correctly. I wonder if the parents knew. If I'm totally wrong, sorry.
I like watching Gaines, but these two are just losing my interest. I've never found Cullen funny (I know, I've hidden my disdain so well) But watching them complain about how stressed they are planning a party, doesn't make me want to watch. And now that they aren't policing Gaines' behavior as much, it's not even as fun to watch her. But she was pretty adorable getting all excited about her pink hair. I agree that was sweet. And Brooks was pretty cute in his turtle costume.

No you are right. But that was at either Madelyn or Bennetts school. I can't remember which. I doubt they asked for permission at the MDO program. But they should have. When I was doing my student teaching we had to get permission from the parents to film, and working in a preschool its a big no no to put kids on any social media.

I don't have kids but isn't 15 months old enough to correct a bad behavior? Like when Katie picked Brooks to take him up to carry him upstairs and he got mad? I'm sorry, I feel his tantrums could be addressed better. How about when he throws his food and that means he's "done eating".... ummmm.... how is that okay at 15 months? I think that kid has a really terrible personality.

That age is HARD. They're barely talking, and just learned to walk. They want to be more independent than is possible, and their go-to way to communicate is crying/yelling. Discipline doesn't work, so you do lots of redirecting or removing from situations.

So, yes, C&K could do things differently when he acts up, but sometimes you just need to shrug it off and laugh, or you'll end up screaming or crying right along with your kid. I would bet that for the most part, Katie tries her best to teach Brooks what is and isn't ok. Unfortunately she has a man-child for a husband, and they also film their lives, so those "funny" moments (that make most of us roll our eyes) with Brooks make it into the vlog.

^ Though I do think they're a lot more lenient with Brooks than they were with Gaines. A combo of Gaines being more advanced in language at that age, and C&K's "boys will be boys" mentality toward Brooks.

My mind is blown

They've gotten more lenient with Gaines too. It's part of the overall laziness that has overtaken their lives. They used to have Gaines say please and thank you, and yes sir, and yes ma'am, and they were working on getting her to put her hand on their arm when she wanted to talk. Now they seem to have given up on manners. She stands in her chair, interrupts, yells, etc. But it's "cute" and "funny", so they laugh and film it, and that's tacit approval. I know Brooks is at a hard age, but they were teaching him baby signs. He knew "more", so "all done" shouldn't be that hard, rather than throwing his food. I think Katie doesn't have backup from Cullen, because he wants "funny" vlog footage, so she's just given up. It's no fun being bad cop all the time.

Joining the dumbass club. I've been reading it as Ask Eptichere and I kept wondering who Eptichere was. Now I feel like an idiot.

I hope they don't either and i kinda doubt they will. Today is Missy's bday too. I doubt they will come to AL for that..

I really like that they have REAL friends that come to this party. People we know from vlogs in the past and that have been coming to this party for years. They seem to be the only YT couple out of the trio that have REAL LIVE FRIENDS that aren't in YT or were paid to be there.
