Anybody else uncomfortable with a 15 year old child already being called a woman by her mother?? I mean I’m 19 and I still see myself as a girl, definitely not a woman

Yes, extremely. But it's because Sheri will be married at 18 and knocked up by 20 so by the Griffith standards you must become at "woman" at 15. It's messed up! :? :? :? :?

Today's vlog in summary:
*Kids got a box of cereral, a box of chocolate egg candy, and clothes for Easter
*Chad pranked Ruby and she drank a sip of what she thought was OJ which was really mac n cheese powder mixed with water and Ruby made a HUGE deal about it, acting like she was puking at the kitchen sink all hunched over, then about 5 min. later in another *scene*, she brings it up again and talks about how sick she is and how she will be sick all day long.
*the kids waste 8+ rolls of toilet paper by T.P'ing the girls bedroom and then playing in it. It was a huge mess and when Ruby asked them to clean it up, they all left the room and said "i'm not cleaning that up, I'm out of here" and Ruby just let them leave.
*Eve talks about how she went over the neighbor's house and went pee in their backyard and Ruby talks about how Eve plays with her "boyfriend" neighbor boy and they are no where to be seen or heard for 5-6 hours at a time. And they have so much fun, Eve doesn't want to come inside to pee so she just will pee outside in the back yard.

So many issues, I seriously cannot stand Ruby. First of all, Eve is way to little to be on her own playing for 5 or 6 hours outside by herself without adult supervision. I'm not surprised though, it gives Ruby free time to do what she wants which is sleeping and taking bubble baths multiple times a day.

You took a sip of the stupid drink. Quit making such a huge deal out of it. You are not going to die. And you are making it into a big deal b/c you think it makes for "good content" which brings me to my next point. Vlogging is supposed to show your actual real life, it's not a sitcom or a made for TV movie. Vlogging should not have "scenes" or "takes" or prompting the kids to say/do what you want. You should not have to "think" up content, it's supposed to be you filming your day to day life. And for God's sake, put down the camera from time to time and be an ACTUAL PARENT once in awhile.

I only half listen to the vlogs while I'm getting ready in the morning, but I heard Ruby saying something to the kids to the effect of, if they don't behave or take care of their toys she would find another child who would enjoy them.

I remember when Ruby decided to throw away one of Eve's toys, she got a lot of backlash about how she could have donated it. I'm not sure if she actually learned from that, or if she is just saying it for the vlog.

They were all so mean to Julie in today's vlog. My mom would have never let me call my sibling stupid. I want to adopt Julie. I think she's the only one that can be saved. The rest suck.

Just watched Ruby on her insta stories of them on spring break and some of the kids (and some guy named Star I've never seen before?) playing board games and Sheri was yelling about winning the game to her wanna be boyfriend (brother Chad) and the guy who lost was "upset" and Ruby say's "Is he being a SOUR loser?" instead of being a "SORE loser". Is that normal? I've never once in my entire life heard anyone call it a "SOUR loser"? Is that really a thing or is Ruby just showing off how stupid she is as usual?

They've mocked themselves for their terrible grammar and knowledge of English. April from April and Davey was saying to Ender 'did you won her the first time?' on insta stories today. She meant 'did you beat her the first time?'
I don't know why they're not embarrassed.

I'm glad Ruby admitted she butchered those fruit trees. That was horrific to watch. Who is actually stupid enough to hack down a tree that took probably ten years to grow. Probably because she has no appreciation of beautiful fresh produce. I wonder if the guy who came today did it for free? Seemed like it, since Ruby obviously doesn't care about the loss of the trees

I think she does appreciate fresh produce because they use to pick it fairly often, I just think Kevin is the one who is more knowledgeable about it. He always knew when to pick it and when to leave it, when to plant it etc.

I get that they need a time delay to upload videos but I really have no interest in watching an 'April Fools' video a week after April 1st, that being said I feel like it was such a wreck of a video I'm glad I didn't anyway.

Vlog today is kind of concerning when Eve admits she doesn't even know what Youtube is?? She's 4 and must have some idea of why her mom always has the camera in her face, but she doesn't seem to have a clue? Concerning that they haven't sat her down and explained that what they film is viewed by over a million people?

Also, Shari opening the million subscriber plaque when she's home alone? Not like she's done anything to deserve that. Definitely should have been a family thing or at least with Kevin and Ruby present...yet doesn't seem like they're even appreciating what they got, just finding something to complain about as usual..

Typical Ruby, instead of being happy with her playbutton, she has to bitch and whine about it not being like the other one's she has seen. She doesn't deserve anything for exploiting her children. It's sickening to me these people exploite their little children for money because they are often too lazy to go out and get a real job like the rest of us. :x :x

8 Passengers' fanbase is made up almost entirely of kids with lots of internet freedom, yet Ruby and Kevin are so restrictive with their own kids' internet use. So ironic. I get the impression that the kids don't even watch their own videos very often. It's like the Duggar family having a TV show despite not owning a TV.

In Chad's video today Shari kept saying to Abby 'oh I'm sorry you're not doing well" in a condescending tone, but then she won, I thought that as funny, also did you notice Abby misspelled almost every word, is that the normal level of spelling for a 5th grader?

Wow, Abby is a horrible speller. She is in 5th grade? It must run in their family b/c people were just having this discussion about Olivia over on Bonnie's channel. She left a note that said "check yes or no" and she put "yes or know" and had a ton of other misspelled words.

I think the entire Griffith family (Bonnie's kids, Ruby's kids and Ellie's kids) are very behind in spelling and academics in general (besides Sheri who seems to be doing well in school). I think they are more focused on making money from vlogging to care about their kids academics and also Bonnie and Ruby make their appearance a priority over anything else. Ruby would want nothing more than to have Sheri and the rest of girls married by the time they are 18 and pushing out babies by 19 or 20 years old. And they want the boys to go off on their 2 year mission and come straight home and rush into a marriage. It's almost arranged by the way Joel talked about it. He said how he was going to ask Bonnie, but Ellie and Julie were always a good backup.

There is something not right with this family. I get the Duggar/sister wife vibe from them.

In Chad's "Who Knows Me Better" video, it kind of looks like they are in Ruby and Kevin's brand new, top secret, bedroom.

Shari says it’s Chad’s bedroom in her Never Have I Ever vid posted today but it definitely doesn’t look like it.

Shari used to be very mature, but now it's all about being better than everyone else. Which is strange because I would've expected that behavior when she was 12-14, not now at 15. She's really regressed. She couldn't even let Julie do her splits the other day without having to take the spotlight and try it herself. Always has to one-up someone, even her 9 year old little sister.

Wow I decided to look at Chad's video to get context and Abby's spelling really shocked me. I wasn't a great speller in 5th and 6th grade but not knowing how to spell 'Pretty' and 'horror' ? She didn't even have a 't' in Pretzel. I mean I thought she'd at least know Oreo since they see the word every day they bring home a new packet..

You may already know this, but there's been some big discussions about Olivia's spelling in Bonnie's thread. There's been lots of speculation whether it's a Utah thing or if Bonnie and Joel/Olivia's teacher are neglecting her spelling. Seeing Abby's spelling, and we've seen examples of Ellie's poor spelling, maybe it's a Griffith thing? My whole family on my dad's side is awful at math including myself. It seems like these things can run in the family.

Some things about today's vlog.
First she says that Russell is going through a stage of crying and whining and that all her kids gone through that when they were his age. Then she goes on about Eve, who is younger so it a big contradiction. She says being strict works for some personalities, but not for her (you should think about the kids, not the mother). She is just too lazy, because disciplining is hard work and she would rather take one more nap.
Then she lets her 4 years old carry her own suitcase that is bigger than Eve herself.

All I can picture after today's vlog is Ruby dousing her kids in BBQ sauce with honey so they turn "sweet and tender." I would never use tender to describe my children. Ever. So weird.
