Is it me or are they giving more attention to Esme these days, for the vlog anyway. Is it because they finally realise that she's the cleverest and by showing more of her it covers up what the others lack

[RolyPoly123]

Something else i noticed was for the first time ever Ashley mentioned that they might not always be so healthy and they may face problems with the girls, or words to that effect. I wonder if this was just an off the cuff comment or are they aware that some things are not progressing as they should with some of the girls

I'm confused by these four year old checkups. My kids are teens but I doubt things have changed much here (Aust) from when my kids had their four year old checkups. It was with a nurse and was a very comprehensive developmental check. From memory it involved doing jigsaw puzzles, building a tower with blocks, drawing a person with facial features (they had to add a certain number to get it correct), tracing / drawing shapes and letters, answering lots of questions, plus lots more that I can't remember.

I would have thought things would be very similar in the US? Or have the Gardners left that bit out of the vlog? I would have been interested to see how their girls went in a developmental check, mainly for snark reasons because I highly doubt all four girls are meeting milestones.

So here in the US at least in Michigan. They send out a stapled booklet of those questions. They expect you to do those tasks drawing, tracing etc. then you are to bring the papers in to the office with you and they will score them. I am going to say that the dummies filled out the papers for them or had Esme do everyone’s papers. It is definitely not a good way to check child’s development because parents lie.

I have noticed they are giving her more attention - in my mind it is more proof they read here. Having said that, if they are paying her more attention because it was mentioned on here, I wish they would take other comments on board as well, starting with Tyler defriend the little girls on instagram, man up, get off the couch and get an actual job.

Where did Ashley say this? Was it in the latest vlog? Any chance she was referring to the health consequences of Tyler's ever expanding girth and not the girls?

Also Michigan resident here... I’ve got multiple kids and have done multiple 4yo checkups. One of my kids had one recently, and I have never gotten a booklet of tasks mailed to me. Our pediatrician (very good, it is hard to get in to her) asks me some questions, and gave my child a crayon and asked my child to draw certain shapes etc. but it is not a standard thing to get a booklet mailed... I am in a lot of mom groups and have never even heard of that.

One more thing about the doctor visit. At the beginning of the vlog, Ashley said they were going for a check-up and she said something about socialization being part of it---can't remember the phrase but something about social skills. I didn't see anything like that in the vlog, though. Even the kids interacting with the doctor (which would show him something) was regularly interrupted by Ashley. Did I miss something?

It was at the end of the dr visit just before they got back into the car if i remember correctly

Definitely not the same as appointments here in the US. They usually only do that kind of testing if it’s deemed necessary to obtain therapy services. It’s not typically part of every yearly well child exam. Ours did ask us as parents about our children’s development but the kids weren’t tested.

Tyler adds bromine to the hot tub and tells Evie to turn on the jets. "Girls, what are the bubbles doing?"
Grain : "Sw-sw-sw-sw, swimming."
Pastry: "Turtling."
Bag of Rocks: "Princess."
Bison: "What are they doing, like cleaning..."
Ezzy: "Cleaning."

Geniuses!

Omg, I'm lol @ Bag of Rocks: princess. Did she really answer the question with princess? Wow and the parental entities don't believe anything is wrong with that.... SMH. A & T arent very bright either though. Something is very off with the heavyweight champion herself, but she will continue to go on as if shes an Einstein genius per the entities.

Evie's response to his questions about the bubbles "princess". I just can't handle her. She's EXACTLY what I called her yesterday. A box of rocks.

Tyson "the girls love helping with chores". Uh, they're swirling their hands around in hot tub water. That's a chore?

Why does Ashley ask them questions with such an aggressive tone? When she asked them "Did you go in the hot tub without me" and after their cousin gave them presents and they were sitting at the counter "what did you get"? It all sounds so aggressive and harsh because she's just so animated and intense. It's either that animated intense tone or her fake motherly baby talk voice. Nothing normal and in between.

Scrolling back through Ashley's IG, this vlog is from 1/25. So they are 9 days behind. Which they still consider "ahead" somehow. But then the vlog switches to what looks like different pajamas after the part where the girls are jumping on the couch after dinner. Likely super old footage that they threw in to fill up the time.

The school tested our kids early on in the USA, east coast New England. But this was 20 years ago. And if early intervention was necessary, it was usually up to the parent to get testing before school age, i.e., my oldest daughter was in daycare/ preschool and was tested through the school system because the preschool requested it with us too of course. She was my first born and I was very young, I had no idea about special needs kids and the services out there at the time. But I caught on quickly because my denial wasn't going to get my child anywhere. It was about her, not me, so I had her signed up for anything I could. Theres so much more out there now for the special needs community than there was 20+ years ago.

That's for sure! Good for you for doing what was best for your daughter. I was an RN so I knew something wasn't right when my daughter wasn't learning words at all. She babbled, but wasn't actually talking, so I brought it up to her pediatrician at her 18 month check up. We got her evaluated for SLP, but she didn't get big time evaluated until we moved to Washington State. They had a really good early intervention program there, and we had to get a full evaluation to get her into SLP. Someone mentioned parents filling out forms-- my daughter hated being tested. So when they would ask her to do things like "point to the doggie in the book", she just sat there. And they weren't allowed to take our word for it that she could very easily find a dog on a page of pictures of animals. So they told us that she was severely globally delayed. In truth, she is pretty high functioning. So we got the lecture about the dangers of denial. The thing is, we didn't mind them saying that, because she became a priority for services.
I don't understand what these idiots think they are accomplishing by pretending their "miracles" are so advanced. Do they really believe they are because the KAD say they are? I don't like Hazy Bingham, but I can't imagine that Ty-Shit-for-brains and his child bride can see her and still think their girls are "advanced". She's at least 6 months younger, right?

JD386, I was trying to re-quote your description of her but got it wrong. I like box of rocks better than I like bag. Why are you so beautiful?

Speaking of the growth and development assessment portion of the 4 year old checkup....about 5:30 you can see A$$ley filling out paperwork. This could be a packet of questions concerning their development. So basically, you are relying on momma bag of rocks to be stating how the girlsess are developing. Like they say, the rock doesn't fall too far from the bag.

Did Tylard leave the girls alone in the spa to go get their toys??? I know Nanny Ash came out with them, but did he walk up the house to ask her leaving them alone?? If so, very neglectful. The CDC recommend no kids in spas until age 5, further it states they shouldn't be allowed in unless their heads are completely out of the water when standing at the bottom. Of course they don't adhere to that. Not only that he teaches them how to put chemicals in the spa. Chemicals that are extremely dangerous for children. He show them how to open the spa and then leaves their tiny faces to inhale all the spa chemicals he is putting in. He probably is hoping they can maintain the spa chemicals for him in a year or two.

We're right in the middle of the US. At our yearly well-child checkups the parents are verbally asked about diet, sleep habits, school (grades, favorite class), extracurrucular activities, friends, tv/computer use. And, of course, as the child ages, they more and more take over answering the questions. There is a 3 year screening available through the public schools to see if special services are needed (which the school district will provide free). But the screening is not mandatory.

They'll be his pool girls when they're 6. Yea, that seems plenty old enough to be handling a bunch of chemical potions.

I can’t wait until one of them goes over and dumps an entire bottle of the chemicals in while he’s not looking.

OMH check out the heavies head on the eviegardnerofficial page, the second pix when she was a baby. Doesn't it look like she had an implant under her forehead? Its a rectangle.
