8 Passengers: Spreading a Disease while Doing As I Please | Part #16

[shortstop]

Maybe in Ruby’s eyes she’s punishing us for no vlogs.

LoL!!!

With Chad being upset with Julie video. Maybe he was reacting that way because he saw everyone else do it. So he believe that’s how you treat Julie.

They have a storm on their hands! More and more people are coming out with videos talking about them! I hope the kids are okay especially Chad!! No I don't think R and K will do anything physically to harm them, but mentally it's probably a total mess!

The way he got angry like that....that seemed like a quick escalation (but I don't know what a sibling relationship should look like I'm an only child). Anyways, with the theory you guys are projecting, wouldn't that mean he would have some sort of resentment towards Abby too since she Is younger than him? (since sibling rivalries are usually close in age) But hypothetically, if Ruby was trying to get pregnant while Chad was 1-2, and assuming that she had a miscarriage between when Chad was a baby/toddler and Abby was born, wouldn't that rage/anger be/start with with Abby (plus the two year age gap thing) since she was the first born to eventually lead to 3 more babies after and not skip two kids?

idk, like I said I'm an only child and from my experiences sibling relationships are hit or miss a lot of times so I'm genuinely curious.

I was wondering the same thing. Shari, Chad, and Abby are "the big kids" and the ones who are made to take care of the younger kids, and Abby probably got pushed aside just as fast as Chad when Ruby got pregnant with Julie. It seems like once Julie was born there was a sort of 'divide' and from that point on it was just the three oldest who were responsible for the littles. Maybe there's less resentment with Abby since they've always been on the same team, so to speak. Well, aside from the period between Abby's birth and Ruby's next pregnancy.. but Chad was so young, he probably doesn't remember much about that time.

Someone on my Facebook page made her status about them. Word is definitely getting out. I’m really wondering if there an open CPS case going on with them and that’s why they haven’t uploaded

I found this interesting knowing what we know now:

https://invidio.us/watch?v=QNsTIjjUnsI

I was watching another older vlog where Ruby was explaining how she manages to stay calm with 6 kids and Chad was in the background saying how she has help from her other kids. He said it two or three times before Ruby started to explain how she has her other kids help out. She said the older kids make sandwiches for the younger ones while she takes a shower and gets ready. Meanwhile, Chad is in the background making sandwiches for his siblings. Isn’t this Ruby’s responsibility?

Chad has been helping Ruby raise her children since he was young. He’s probably sick of acting like their second dad and just wants to be what he is, the older brother. There are so many vlogs with his thumbnail that have over a million views. She should be so thankful yet he is treated the worst.

I can't help myself, Chad is probably sick of acting like their FIRST dad. Anyone think Kevin has ever made the kids sandwiches, let alone done it regularly?

Look at her get emotional over saying she's done having kids. I bet present day Ruby wished she stopped at 2. She nor Kevin ever wanted to take care of any of them, the number of kids they have is just a religious status symbol. I cannot stand these people.

In one of Shari's videos that she shot very recently, there is a clip of Kevin washing the dishes, and Shari says, "I don't ever think I've seen you wash the dishes before." Which is just absolutely crazy to me. I mean, my dad also doesn't do more chores than my mom, but he definetely does do some sort of chore every day to help out. But it's crazy because apparently as long as Shari has been alive, Kevin has never washed dishes?? If I were the kids I would hold some serious resentment just for that. Imagine if you were treated like a slave everyday (Ruby constantly videos the kids washing HERS and KEVINS dishes along with their own) and Kevin has never washed a dish up until that point? What fucking lazy hypocrites those parents are.

haha - I've never seen my father wash a dish either but my husband or son would never get away with that.

Tweet from It's R life. A vlogging family who have 1.25 million subscribers on youtube

That's funny... all that coming from It's R Life, when they don't do anything to help their adopted son with his disabilites, and instead, they laugh at him and mock use his limited vocabulary (which isn't real words, it's his own language). Kendal, The mom... had a temper tantrum, when Disney World announced they wouldn't be opening until July 11th (I think). Their whole channel is a shit show.. And from a blog Kendal used to have, hours were spent, when the eldest girl was spanked by her father, to learn a lesson. So, I am pretty sure ALL family vloggers, or most, are giving family vloggers a bad rap, It's R Life included.

The only good "family channel" I have ever seen in my entire life is "How To Dad." He used to do vlogs but then he stopped (possibly because they were getting to be a bit too much) and now he does more funny cutesy videos with his daughters.

I have actually never seen that channel, but... it sounds familiar. Was that one of the ones that was nominated for that YT parent of the year award or something? But, JesssFam won?

[Parktown]

Notice how not one of her siblings have come forward in support of her! Not one!

This is the therapist Ruby is learning coaching from and consulting with for Chad's issues, Jodi Hildebrandt:

As expected, she's nuts!

[Josette]

I think they're afraid to publically support Ruby because it would endanger their channels, and the income they receive from them.

[Bollie_Dollie_4_Life]

Well, no video exposing Ruby from "it's R life"..........They made the video and planned on posting it tomorrow but since she talked all about the situation, Ruby got word about it and all of the sudden the "it's r life" Mom got a letter from Ruby's lawyer making threats to her to not post the video so now they will not say anything else about Ruby and the video will not be posted.

I don't know about the nomination for this, but the dad did do a Ted Talk. So maybe that's where you've heard of him? Regardless, you should check him out, he's one of the only parents on YT (that I know of) that seems like a pretty decent person.

I believe, that there is this sibling dynamic between Chad and Russell because they have very different personalities and though they have a quite big age gap, they were sharing a room. That gives plenty of opportunities for conflict.

Yes I figured that but still nothing wrong with chiming in to just say ‘she is a loving mother’ they are family! Yet not one is touching it! Speaks volumes!

She is definitely worried she has set her lawyers on everyone!

[Josette]

This is from February, but I still think it's worth a watch.

I find the It’s R Life response interesting... assuming it’s true, what power does a lawyer have to tell someone they can’t make a video on the topic of family vloggers using their platform inappropriately at all, even if she didn’t say Ruby’s name? It doesn’t surprise me that Ruby and Kevin would try to strong-arm people into silence. They’re going to continue with this overconfident holier-than-thou approach to any criticism.

YouTube content would fall under free speech I guess they could claim slander or libel and threaten legal action. That seems like a stretch to me though. People are making videos dissecting the actions in the videos ruby willingly posts to yt. They are simply discussing the content available on a public platform. Ruby will do anything she can to control the narrative though. Got to keep her gravy train rolling.

Where did you all hear about Ruby's lawyer? On the family not defending Ruby-have you noticed they aren't on IG near as much either? I think the whole Griffith family is worried about their channels. Now Bonnie did comment on Kevin, Shari and Ruby's IG post before they went silent on social media.

So i haven't posted about the abuse in the Franke home. I do believe they have a CPS case, because they have hired a attorney.

I have personal experience with CPS. I am going to explain the process and how it works here in america. First they investigate that involves a home inspection. The inspection is check children's bedrooms, bathrooms, fridge and pantry to make sure food is available. Also they check running water. They also make sure the child has toys! We have a playroom in our home it is our formal dining room which we don't need.Your statement about the alleged abuse ( everything is alleged until CPS makes their decision ) CPS also ask permission to speak to third party individuals such as school pastors or friends. We had them follow through with with this. They can also check for marks or bruises on the children. After they do all the above the CPS caseworker takes it and sees if they have enough evidence of abuse or neglect to "open " a case. If a case is open that means there was abuse or neglect found. I can't address from here because in my experience we never had a case open.

A few of my thoughts about what i am worried about CPS and the Frankes. They hired a attorney very quickly. If they are refusing to talk to CPS and making them communicate through their attorney that looks really bad. The only thing on the home inspection that concerns me is they have no toys in that house and that Chad has no bedroom or bathroom door. By the way these visits are scheduled and they definitely could have time to stage the house. Next is who CPS will interview. We all know the Frankes live in what i refer to as the mormon bubble. The majority of kids go to a mormon school they are involved in mostly church activities etc...In my experience Mormons stick up for one another. I feel like for anyone to claim they are abusing any of the kids it would need to be extreme abuse. This is the part that worries me the most.

My final thoughts. I hope this doesn't hurt thier YouTube. She will slip up again we all know how narcissist she is. These kids haven't found their own voices yet. They can only repeat what they have lived and heard from the parents.

I am open to addressing any questions anyone has about CPS. I know it works different here in the usa as other countries. Also i do not know how many people in the usa know how it works
