Crazy Middles | Crazy Pieces
Re: Crazy Middles | Crazy Pieces
I was sure they would do that. I am on the fence on that one. They have enough kids but that would be so amazing for Jacob. I guess at this point, 2 more...

Yes it would be absolutely wonderful to have a bio sibling and niece living with him! I just hope Shelly and Jared would leave the parenting to his sister.

Yeah I said a few pages back that I hope they didn’t adopt her child.. I would hate them to adopt her kid and her break the “rules” and they kick her out and keep her child... and also I’d hate it to be like Jaime and aurora (I know Jaime has a disability, just an example) she seems perfectly capable of caring for her child though

Re: Crazy Middles | Crazy Pieces
Happy for Jacob - his relationship with his sister is so sweet. I think the parents are stretched thin as it is so it'd be interesting how they adjust to the sister and a toddler.

Re: Crazy Middles | Crazy Pieces
I am constantly worried about the Jaime/aurora situation. There’s been a handful of times where I’ve noticed Jaime trying to parent and crystal jumping in before she could or talking to aurora/recording right over Jaime. It makes me sad. Sometimes I wonder if crystal just tolerates Jaime because sometimes imo she seems annoyed by Jaime...maybe I’m just reading too much into things.Abbeygurl4 wrote: ↑Thu Sep 26, 2019 2:27 pm. and also I’d hate it to be like Jaime and aurora (I know Jaime has a disability, just an example) she seems perfectly capable of caring for her child though

Has anyone noticed how Hannah does weird things with her mouth/lips/tongue constantly while they are on camera. I thought maybe it was a habit and that she didn’t even notice that she did it, but she seems to do it when she knows she is on camera. Almost like a duck face or trying to make her lips look bigger? Lol I thought it was something odd That I just randomly noticed but the other day my hubs asked me why she was always doing it...and then in a sibling video between her and Alex they asked something about a weird habit and Alex said they weird thing she does with her lips - she tried saying that’s just her natural lips and he said she forces her lips lol

Re: Crazy Middles | Crazy Pieces
I purchased the app and there is a video where Aaron and Crystal talk about what happened with Melinda. It sounds like there was a really controlling boyfriend in the picture and he pushed all of Melinda's family and friends out of the picture. Crystal said she tried and tried to stay in Melinda's life, but as soon as the boyfriend found out Jamie received Social Security money he started trying to manipulate her and Crystal had to step in. Crystal used the term "Gaslighting" (Melinda's boyfriend was gaslighting her), I looked up the term and it is a form of manipulation. From what it sounds like Melinda is finally starting to see what he was doing and has broken up with the boyfriend. She still sees Crystal has her Mom and might be in some upcoming vlogs. You could tell Crystal really loves Melinda, but I really wonder how all of this is going to play out because it seems like Melinda really burned her bridge with everyone in the family.LuckyCharm wrote: ↑Tue Aug 27, 2019 9:04 am Can anyone explain to me what exactly happened with Melinda on the crazy pieces? I just recently found them and was watching some older videos to try and get a background on them. I saw Melinda and then I didn’t and they never mention her? In the one video I saw Melinda called crystal mom & in another crystal said something about adopting arianna and Melinda at the same time? No one seems to interact with Jamie. I feel bad for her. I wonder if she wants to parent her daughter, but was in such a bad situation but saw the crazy pieces as her only option.

Yes, it’s really annoying that Hannah does that. I also think Hannah has a thing for Alex. They aren’t full siblings, siblings by adoption. Wherever Alex is she isn’t far behind. It’s so strange to me.

Re: Crazy Middles | Crazy Pieces
I always wondered about that as well. Hannah in general seems to love attention. She seems to always been behind crystal smiling when she’s filming.
Re: Crazy Middles | Crazy Pieces
I have been thinking that for a while, but wasn't sure about posting it because it would seem like I was bashing a 13 years old, which I am definitely not. But Hannah is always putting on so much make up, pouting, flirting and dancing for the camera. I get it, she wants to be a grown up, it's normal. But whoever edits the videos and think it's OK to include it in the video needs to take a hard look in the mirror.
And some kids with a difficult life path can go to great length to get attention, and Hannah seems to think being overly sensual/flirty is a good way to do it. She is 13. She needs attention and being taught boundaries.

Re: Crazy Middles | Crazy Pieces
I think the Hannah thing is just Hannah trying to be funny but not really actually being funny - she just thinks she is.
Jamie is 100% not capable of being a parent to Aurora! She has the mind of a child and Aurora would be at risk of harm if she was allowed to be raised by Jamie. Yes, at times she seems grown up but you can also tell she very much is child-like.

No, I worded that wrong sorry, I know Jaime isn’t capable. I meant that Jacobs sister seems capable! Sorry for the confusion

Re: Crazy Middles | Crazy Pieces
I definitely agree that Jaime couldn’t mother aurora alone. I guess I just find it sad that they don’t let her parent at all. Instead of adopting them to help her parent her daughter- they wanted the baby so just adopted them both to get the baby. I hope I’m wrong and I hope they actually all care and love her.
Crystal seems to want to be the hip cool mom. She acts extremely immature a lot of the time & imo try’s extremely hard to be the teenage kids friend. She also made a comment in her newest video about how they were really poor when they first started fostering. They were thinking about walking away from their home or letting it foreclose because it was too small? She also said she would max out her credit cards and didn’t realize that you had to pay it back!?
So all the kids get to take one friend to their bday lunch - I have a feeling that Alex only wanted to take his gf and ended up having to take Ariana & hallie too.
I watched a few more of their very first vlogs and noticed a few things: hallie seemed pretty mean to her younger siblings...she threw eggs at what seemed to be a 2 year old Brody because he didn’t want to eat them in one video ...Ariana seems to have calmed down she used to be extremely hyper, loud, and attention seeking..there was a video where the parents were completely MIA and Ariana was recording - and hallie was smearing mayo ketchup & a bunch of other condiments all over Hannah’s hair. I don’t know if Hannah was afraid to say no to her new parents bio child so she just let her do it or what but it was so weird.
Hannah reminds me of an older version of how Aubrey from crazy middles will probably end up acting.

Re: Crazy Middles | Crazy Pieces
I have thought this about Hannah for a while and like others haven’t wanted to say anything as I thought it was just me! She’s 14 and acts like her and Alex are the same age, she has said previously that the 2 of them have the strongest sibling bond over Hallie and Arianna but I would disagree, quite a lot of the times Alex looks like he’s simply putting up with Hannah rather than enjoying her company. She has got quite big cheek dimples because I’ve thought previously she sucks her cheeks on but after watching a few videos I realised it’s just dimples BUT she certainly pulls faces to make her lips bigger or something and has a very specific way of speaking as well when she’s showing off, she is my least favourite of the pieces I have to say!
Re: Crazy Middles | Crazy Pieces
I believe Hannah and Alex lived together in another home prior to the CP. I believe they were with an older couple. I also think Hannah likes Alex and not just as her brother. They aren’t blood siblings but siblings through adoption.

Re: Crazy Middles | Crazy Pieces
I have always wondered what the kids' classmates think of the channels. They live in such a small town that I am sure their classmates know about it. I know it was said some of the children were bullied, but I wonder if the channel had anything to do with it.

Re: Crazy Middles | Crazy Pieces
Oh my god. When I saw the newest video I thought to myself it better be Jacob's sister not some random kid. I think they shouldn't have any more kids but this is an exception. Nicole was living in a teen moms' home, and her and Jacob are obviously very close. (It also seems like Nicole was close to Shelley and Jared too, in that one video). I'm glad that she'll get something closer to a normal life and a little bit of stability. God bless that girl she seems so sweet.
Re: Crazy Middles | Crazy Pieces
I’m also glad it’s Nicole. It’ll be good for her and Jacob to be close.
Re: Crazy Middles | Crazy Pieces
Given how much Lacey and Easton’s relationship has already been shown/used on the channel, it’ll be interesting to see how much time gets dedicated to their engagement and wedding planning when that happens in a few years.
