You’re exactly right. Instead of asking them at the zoo, what noise a monkey makes - a skill they should have mastered years ago - try explaining to them where that breed of monkey comes from or something similar.Grandma2eleven wrote:Nothing is a "teachable moment" for these two (three) nitwits with those girls. Seeing her spit the hot chocolate out the first time would be a perfect teachable moment - (although way late and she should know by 4.5 years old) about how hot chocolate is hot - and will burn your mouth, and that if you blow it, or let it cool or stir it, it will cool off. Teach about steam coming from the cup - freaking TEACH those poor girls about LIFE!! Ugh. So many things with this family make me crazy, but not talking TO the girls about what they are doing and seeing and using the moments as teaching moments, they talk AT them and tell them what to say and don't explain and educate them about anything. They've been taken to very cool museums and zoos and places where they could have taught them little facts here and there... My grandsons listen and remember things SO much when we are out and about - whether it has to do with groceries at the store, or animals at the zoo - we take the time to read the little placard at the zoo and learn a few facts about the animals we see, rather than looking for the next photo op, or talking to the vlog fam. Ugh... I hate those parents (and not-a-nanny) for many reasons, but wasting these children's minds by not talking to them like PEOPLE is in my top 3 reasons to hate them!!!DollarsToDonuts_9 wrote: ↑Mon Jun 17, 2019 3:00 pmWhat a piece of trash for a father.

Even my 4.5 year old knows to let his hot chocolate sit for a while before drinking... water
The problem with that is that to be able to do that, Ashley and Tyson would actually have have some knowledge themselves, which they clearly don’t have.
I pity these girls growing up because they are going to learn nothing from these idiot parents. They don’t even have enough basic skills themselves to keep them safe!
