I loved pretty much everything Bonnie said today. WHY did she have to put that title on the vlog? I could see anything else clickbaity like, "looking into the future", "cheering Joel up", etc. but just not this.

Can someone please explain to me why Ruby feels that putting her kid in a (necessary) car seat is good mom vibes? To me, that's like saying "I feed my kids. I'm such a good mom!!"

I know. A car seat is 'momming 101 vibes'. its not an achievement is keeping ur kids alive. These Griffith girls really need a lot of
Praise, it's very annoying.

I also think it's weird when she says all the "so I remember they're special/that I love them"

At my house, complaining about using the car seat or climbing out of it while driving means you (child) can't ride in the car. It's the law.

And the car doesn't start until everyone is buckled in properly!

I think the car seat issues are a sense of pride for the Griffiths girls. Ellie bought the chicco nextfit, a really nice seat for rear facing when Jackson was a baby. Had him rear facing in it for like a month and then forward faced him shortly after turning one. Bonnie is the same way, they both very much have that "I'm the parent and I know what's best" vibe. I've been a parent for 12 years and even I realize that's not always the case. Your brain isn't suddenly filled with all the knowledge in the world when you squeeze a kid out. There are things you have to learn, car seat safety being one of those. Ruby at least realizes she's doing something wrong, but I don't think she'll take the initiative to fix it.

Just watched Ruby’s birthday video. I seriously thought she was in her mid forty’s. The way she acts and dresses. Anybody else think she was a lot older?

Don’t care what age she is. Still can’t stand her!

I think nutrition, being skinny and stressed out all the time contributes in her case. She's always stressing and have been doing so for years and I think that being stressed out for a long period of time doing nothing to change it, ages you fast.
My dad ate healthy but had a stressful life because of bad planning, he always looked younger until he entered his 40s and looked 60 in his 50s. She is not taking care of her internal self.

Plus, I don't think she had the best nutrition during all of her pregnancies. She and her sisters have talked about being broke when pregnant and when their children were small. Having multiple pregnancies, with a few miscarriages thrown in, and not eating right, plus having the financial stress and pressure to stay skinny, will age you.
I think this is more a Griffiths thing than a Mormon thing. I think it's how _they_ interpret their faith. Because although I know the church encourages large families, I don't believe that it encourages families to continue popping out babies when they are having trouble providing for the ones they have. I think Jennifer likes being the matriarch of a large family. And I think she had a few of her kids when they were struggling financially. I know I am being very judgy. And stuff happens. But (apparently) purposely having children when you're living on potatoes (Ellie) or living off your storage (Ruby) is just really irresponsible.

I think that their weird relationship with food and bad nutrition has more to do with their upbringing, coming from their mother. They all have enough money today, to eat them selves full and choose healthy food but are unable for some reason because their issue with food and nutrition is much deeper.

For the longest time I thought Bonnie was the youngest then Beau, Julie, Ellie and Ruby. I think Bonnie is the only one who looks her age and maybe Julie.

Ruby 36, Beau 34, Bonnie 32, Julie 29, Ellie 26.

R+E both look at least 10 years older than they are. I agree that Bonnie looks the youngest.

Even when she first started her channel Ruby looked at least in her late 30s. Bonnie and Julie definitely look younger or on track for their age than the rest imo. And I think part of Bonnie's reason is partly is she has a very different build than her siblings. Ruby and Ellie both look emaciated and drawn out with hollow cheeks, sallow skin and hair that washes them out even more.
