To me she gets cuter the older she gets whereas the older twins have good hair and at times they look cute then they open their mouth -never seen such big mouths or faces on kids and thats all I am going to say about them without sounding horrible.
I so agree! I don't understand why so many people don't like Esme's looks; I think she's very cute; much cuter than the bigger twins, except for their hair.

What kind of ladder will they need so Tyson can get up there to plug in their Christmas decorations without dying? Or do they plan to have the house professionally decorated or risk the lives of one of their volunteers.

I have to wonder just how happy the house that they are essentially getting for free, off their girls, is really going to make them in the long run. Don't forget that these two are insatiable. Immediately they are going to be bored with their kids and their easy-come-easy-go house, and they are greedily going to want more stuff to come their way.

So why should we care about the stupid house? It's not like they put their heart and soul into their dream house. Hell, Waddling Windbag lays around most of the day, then goes over and watches other real men build him a house without hanging his head in shame.

And I would very sincerely prefer to live under the viaduct than to live in that Mini Mansion that comes complete with a Wanking Whale laying on the couch shoving food in his mouth all day.

They'll get one of those, what are they called? Scissor lifts? So all he has to do is push a button instead of climb a ladder. No chance in the hell he could climb up and down multiple times.

So much I could say about these people and I've been quiet for such a long time. What I can't believe is that their thirst for attention and income leads them to yet again put their children's safety at risk (beyond diet, injury, learning) at a time when everyone is talking about the recent issue with the pedophile. HOW they can sleep at night knowing that they have laid out a perfect map of their house for ANYONE who may want to enter and cause harm is incomprehensible.
Every window; every door; even where each child will sleep is free for all to know. Don't know how to get to the house? No problem; they provide you with drone footage to plan how to get there, what surrounds the house, and how you can easily get away.
Many examples of kidnapping could be given, but they have one of the most famous cases to learn from and take caution from right in their own community. Elizabeth Smart, anyone?
They live as though they are invincible, all the while risking the safety of their girls.
Unbelievable.

Yup. She got those small sawed off looking teeth from the old coot. Good thing she got either crowns or veneers to lengthen those choppers other wise she would still have those micro teeth.

Considering she's such a big girl, so tall, big horse mouth, wide in the hip area, we can only assume she has a big ole cooch as well.

During this last house tour, did I hear them mentioned any time how much the girls are going to enjoy anything in the house? Maybe their bathroom? Which is a joke because they do not know how to use one....All they mentioned is how they are going to decorate, especially as soon as they move in the end of November it will decorated for Christmas right away. The garland and twinkling lights on the railing, that's going to be fun to watch them keep the mini Grabners from not touching. They will probably have to fence in their tree again this year, better get a taller fence :D No mention of a special spot/table for the girls to do crafts/activities or a cozy reading corner with a bookcase with books. They have only mentioned an actually playroom recently, looks like it will be a room in the basement. Plus their idea of a playroom is go into a closet grab a bucket of sorted toys and dump them in a room, free for all for the girls, no wonder they do not know how to play :(
Can't wait to see how that appliance bar works out. Someone mentioned earlier, if she actually uses any of her appliances wouldn't she need to go to the kitchen sink to clean afterwards? She's a bird! Speaking of birds, there is one flying around the vlog as I write.
I picture an electric can opener by the stove because it is basically all she uses so why would run back and forth from the pantry.
She says she had the window put in the pantry so next time she hides in the pantry she will have better lighting and she can also use the window when she escapes for real..Chuckle Chuckle... :?

Anyway, I'm no house builder (I'm sure after this Trailer Tra$hley & By$on will consider themselves both master builders and designers) but it was bugging me when they referred to the crown molding as "thick". You meant "wide", Morons. Thick would be used when describing By$on's waist line. Or, I guess, both of your stupid, good-for-nothing skulls.

Ahhhh, I love the smell of snark in the morning!

Oh, and the upgraded wide deck to accommodate his wide ass and waist. No way their master shower will fit him. They seriously need new adjectives. They could not be more cliche if they tried... "adds character" and "just gorgeous".

Now that things are coming together, I think there are too many elements of design competing with one another. It's too much. But again, I'm no builder. Or designer. What the fuck do I know?

Oh, and your heart doesn't hurt By$on because you're so happy, it's cause you're a heart attack waiting to happen.

I haven't watched the vlog yet but from what you've described sounds like a cluster fuck design/decor much like her hallway table that looks like hobby lobby vomiting on it. I guess she doesn't know the design term less is more.

Here is a good article regarding privacy issues/emotional/mental health issues re YouTube kids:

https://www.theguardian.com/technology/ ... e-and-baby

I've unsubscribed to the Garnder Quad's channel ages ago. I unsubscribed to the other two I used to view as well. Initially, I wanted to see what all the hoopla was about these YouTube families. I just couldn't believe it when my husband told me about this. Had NO idea that families would literally put their entire lives up on YouTube for all to see. I just cannot imagine giving up my privacy, or that of my child's, up for all to see. I am an intensely private person, and I do understand not everyone is as private as I am, but wow. The length to which these vloggers will go for the almighty buck is just surreal.

I came close to tears as I read this article. SOME of these YouTube families SEEM (that being the operative word here) to have fairly well adjusted, happy children, but others...not so much.

I read thru all the various comments regarding A's 'meltdown' as it were, from last night. I actually felt somewhat sorry for her. She doesn't GET IT, does she. She truly finds nothing at all wrong w/what she's doing. It's amazing to me to SEE when I read her words, just how self-absorbed and selfish she is. Well, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. She's like this for a reason. I've always wondered about her family and what their family dynamics are/were when she was a child. While it's clear there is love in her family, it's also clear that something is just horribly WRONG. Boundary issues all over the place. Emphasis on outer appearance, rather than inner beauty.

Perhaps a few seeds were planted in Ashley's head last night...

I told my husband the other night that I'm SO grateful that social media hadn't really kicked off at the time I was raising our son. I cannot imagine putting our lives up there on the 'tube' for all to see. But again, that's just me.

As far as their house is concerned: I actually like it. I took a quick peek at their latest home tour and found that I actually like the home. I skipped over some of it, so missed out on some portion of the tour (such as the kitchen), but overall it's a nice place. It would be nice to believe that having this new home would mean that maybe they'd relent a little on the vlogging and start spending more private/quality time w/their kids, but that's a pipe dream.

What still amazes me is that with just a few simple strategy measures, their lives could drastically calm down and ease up much of their stress levels. Simple things, i.e., speech therapy, pre-K nursery school twice a week, proper table manners, potty training. But these things require patience and TIME, something which apparently neither one of these two parents have.

"Snarky Lady"s 3 times and I paid about a 1/4 of what they are. When my kids moved out I drastically downsized to a Garden home with a postage stamp yard. All one level and even have a garage. Perfect for me but my nest did not stay empty long before my daughter moved back home but fortunately I had an extra bedroom and bathroom for her lol
Wait until they move back in with the grandchildren. My empty nest is overflowing again. We raised 4 kids in a 3 bedroom house and now we have two kids with us again plus a granddaughter. You learn to get creative with space that's for sure.

I actually wouldn't be surprised if more of these families don't implode like Jon & Kate and Shay Tards and several others.

Personally, I hope that more families on YouTube DO implode. The exploitation of these children is disgusting. I hope the current efforts in the U.S. to stop the current exploitation of these kids turns into a Bill/law, eventually. Something really needs to be done about this. These kids have absolutely no voice whatsoever. It sickens me to watch this (which I won't any longer). I can't stomach it.

Just found yet another article and had to share. It's a different take on the whole YouTube/Family vlogging issue:

http://nymag.com/selectall/2017/04/yout ... -side.html

It's one thing if you're an adult and/or can make your own decisions about this, but it's another when you drag your kids into this when they're too young to express themselves. I've already read statements made by kids of YouTube families who have asked either that certain things be edited out of their videos, and/or have asked for the videoing to end, but the parents refuse to do so.

Until a couple of years back, I used YouTube for viewing documentaries and/or other self-help type videos. Had NO idea people were making money off these videos, exploiting their kids' lives, etc.

If I didn't have other issues on my plate that were pressing and didn't require as much of my time, I would become more involved w/this issue. It really, really does concern me...

After reading some of y’alls comments I started wondering where they are going to put their Christmas tree? We always have ours in either the living room or family room so when we open presents there is plenty of room on couches, chairs and a comfortable rug or carpet to sit on. If they put it in their living room - where? Obviously not in front of the fireplace or the wall where their TV is going. The wall of windows? Isn’t that where their couch or love seat is going? On the side next to the fireplace? Not a lot of room there. In the entryway? Yes it might look pretty there but is that practical? The girls will destroy it every time they walk by it or throw stuff over the railing into it. That floor won’t be comfortable to sit on to open presents because they won’t have a rug or carpet there and it will be cold. But as usual it won’t be for comfort just looks.
