If you don't know who DaddyOFive is; they did a vlog in which he pranked his children and kept their reactions on vlog; extremely abusive in so many ways and he would set one kid up against the other kid to get them to "prank" each other. He was exposed at about 200,000 subscribers; who were mostly people who were watching concerned about the children's safety. MommyOFive worked - and would also prank the kids. When the children would react to this blatant abuse the "parents" would scream at them "can't you take a joke, it wasn't real". Like GardnerQuadSquad the majority of how they paid their bills were on the backs of these five children (the oldest I feel was being trained into quite a skilled sadist). After the abuse was exposed DaddyOFive tried to hide all the vlogs and brought in a media consultant to try to give them a more family friendly appearance. (I can't help but wonder how much GardnerQuadSquad had paid out to Access Hollywood to rewrite that 'interview'??? Did A$$'s father arrange that?). Other pro-active vloggers had already downloaded all the DaddyOFive videos and were able to submit them as evidence; thus the formal charges now against DaddyOFive and MommyOFive. This is a very short note on this vlog; you can find a lot of other vloggers addressing the abuse; also with a bit of digging you can find the entire vlog series. it is very upsetting to watch, I cried like a baby for weeks after watching some of them.

Anywho; the DaddyOFive charges has a lot of talk circulating about Mommy/Daddy Bloggers/Vloggers - how they need to be careful of what they upload as charges can be brought years after the deed. I know in issues of incest, neglect and child abuse that adult children, once they "realize" that what they experienced was abuse and neglect, can then have years to decide to bring charges against their abusers. Here's hoping the quads are able to do this once they are adults, if no one intervenes in their behalf prior, that they can have access to the money made on them - and not the debt that the T$A have created in their name, and have their therapy paid for, that they can hold all extendedfamily members accountable for not intervening in their behalf.
What do you mean about the access Hollywood interview re written? It was live so how did they change it?

I'm talking about AH cleaning up the interview, adding friendlier family images that wasn't in the original; cutting out the biting, slapping, shoving, screaming and adding an additional host in pink.
At what point did they decide to do this? Was it AH idea? And the original whole video fairly disappeared? Who requested to change it? Were they paid to remix it so it was more family friendly? Did A$$ dad direct them to do this as he is a media consultant?

Hmm I can't edit my post.

It's actually common for them to do that.

Back in hospital for a few days so have decided to try Tapatalk.

I don't think the Hawaii trip is for Drake & Claudia's wedding because a "Vacation Wedding" sounds very unMormon.

Instead, it sounds like a sponsored trip for 2 reasons:

1. The Greedners would never fork out their own money if they could get someone stupid enough to fund one of their many dreams.

2. The trip is being sponsored by either a travel company that specialises in kid friendly holidays or a clothing company. How else can you explain the photo of SCRAP looking like a very cheap and tasteless sofa?

Same here. I know you said you might end up back in the hospital, but I was really hoping you'd get to stay home with Kitty. :purr:

Feel better soon and let us know if there's anything else we can do to entertain you while you're resting up. :fev:

Thank you Eskayem, Stellaboo, Snarky Lady, Harkette and Abbiedownunder!

Yes Stellaboo I'm missing my Kitty dreadfully. She is currently on the lap of my wonderful neighbour being fed kitty kangaroo treats. Yes, Aussies and their pets eat an animal on our coat of arms. Go figure. I don't but then I don't eat much red meat.

I ring my Kitty at least 4 times a day by leaving a message on my answering machine. According to my family, friends and neighbours Kitty recognises my voice and seems to be comforted by this.

I don't understand that person... She responds to everything like she's the Greedners, sometimes she posts overly kind things and attacks anyone who even hints at something negative or that she disagrees with! But then other times she makes comments of her own that seems negative. But no one ever replies to her and calls her out on it. So how come she is allowed to post negativity but then she attacks anyone else who does? I mean I saw a comment where SHE shared the "permissive parenting" article and said it was an interesting read. I don't know what to make of her.
That wasn't her lol. That was MR bird :wink: :wink:

The following Q & A vlog turned up in my YouTube feed today.



Having never viewed a vlog by another Utah Mormon family (are Binghams Mormon I don't view them enough to know?) and because a number of my SISsies have asked, over the past two years, the question "What is it about Utah Mormons and vlogging?" I decided to watch it. Also its title:

"Discipline, Divorce, and Money!"

made it very clickable for me, a dyed in the wool, Greedy Family Sister In Snark.

Happily, this couple, Bonnie and her, I didn't catch his name, husband, are very nice, normal, sensible, practical, kind and generous people. A couple I would be proud to have as members of my Parish despite the fact I do not attend Mass and am in fact an RC or a Retired Catholic.

In other words, Bonnie and her cute hubby, are the complete ANTITHESIS of the Greedners. Praise the Lord. So I won't have to watch their vlogs because I'm stressed to the max about their kids.

However, I checked and they do have a YTMD thread. I'm not going to read it. I prefer to stay in blissful ignorance.

I also just checked, they have 616,000 subscribers v's the Greedner's 235,000 subscribers, so they must be doing something right. I am now one of their subscribers but I probably won't be watching many of their vlogs only the ones with the words: discipline, money, vacations/holidays or new house in their title.





Awl done.

Yassou AthenaA (my best girlfriend and her hubby are Aussie Greeks),


LMAO! And so are all my visitors!

Yes, I'm a terrible Kitty Mummy.

Friends and family in fact nag me to upload videos of Kitty to YouTube and Facebook because all of them know I spend sooooo much money on Kitty's Vet bills, food, kitty litter (she's very fussy and will only eat premium priced food and pee and poop in top of the range kitty litter) and medications. They think Kitty should start paying her way via YouTube views. Kitty will be 18 this 14 October and last year I did a rough calculation and was not surprised to learn that the money I had spent to date on Kitty could have bought a brand new hatchback car.

When I am feeling better another girlfriend, who's visiting me tonight, my Catholic Priest cousin and I are going to take Kitty to the Vet for her annual vaccine and wellness check and I've promised the poor bloodly Vet and my friends and family that I will film the visit.

Why the cast of thousands? Because I'm not supposed to lift and carry my fatty boom bah Kitty whilst I have a large and open wound.

And, because Kitty, despite being normally a very cute, social and loving cat morphs into the little girl possessed by the devil in the movie The Exorcist. This is no exaggeration for dramatic effect. It is the simple truth. Last year was the worst. My friend and I came home and collapsed on the sofa with a 5 mg Valium each and cup of tea. Kitty meanwhile was back to her normal loving self.

Last year the Vet, myself and my friend ended up barricaded into the far corner of the treatment room with Kitty trying to kill us. She's incredibly strong when she wants to be. The bleeding Vet couldn't even listen to Kitty's heart with a stethoscope. When she jumped back into her carrier bag we quickly closed it and the Vet injected Kitty through the bag's mesh screen. So know you know why the Vet told us to bring a Catholic Priest bearing a Crucifix and Holy Water plus a camera to film Kitty's next visit.

My cousin the Priest is looking forward to the Vet visit because he thinks I'm exaggerating and thinks the Vet will get a good laugh when a real Priest and his real props arrives with the beast. He is going to be shocked to his back teeth and will probably need a brandy or 4 to settle his nerves post visit.

Lots of snide comebacks in today's v'log

Never buying the girls their own meal See we bought the girls their own meal today
Never wrapping a gift Took Mindy a gift, they made a big deal about the Twinkle Twinkle Little star bag and the tee shirt was wrapped (They made a big deal about you guys don't think we ever wrap or something like that
Setting on the table eating At dinner Indie on top of the table while everyone else in chairs, SCRAP says at least she is eating we will take it
Eating off the same plate One of the quads on her lap eating off her plate, she says you guys wonder why we do not give them their own plate, and holds a plate full of food up and says this was hers but she would rather eat off my plate.
Nicknames Her sister is visiting with her two youngest and SCRAP made her tell why they call her tuna, (she was their largest child) SCRAP says you know we are a nickname family I mean who would name their child BARLEY
I'm sure their was more

Not sure she wants this to go viral but the bigger twins were in the pantry with rice every where, then she is in the pantry with the door closed, she aims the camera to the bottom of the door where you see kids.
Girls have duct tape around their diapers, cause according to her all quad moms do this to keep them from coming off but since they are going to Hawaii in 11 days they are not potty training but will when they get home yeah right
Afternoon walk Scarlett freaks and rightly so she saw a snack. Dumass TyASSon lets them go near the flower bed. Still SMH on that one
Water balloon fight I was glad to see them cleaning up the balloons from the street and yard of course he HAD HIS HELPERS
Snarky is as snarky does!

I have a little time this morning to snark as my oldest daughter is in the hospital and I'll be with her the rest of the day.
I couldn't even finish the vlog today. It hurts my eyes and ears.
But the lack of discipline is so apparent due to the morning destruction of the house by the girls. First the rice, then the tissues, she forgot about Bentley being outside, eggs all over the floor.... omg, punish those girls for their naughty behavior. How will they ever learn not to do things?
Duct tape on diapers instead of potty training, talk about lazy. Excuses are like assholes, everyone's got one.
Then the stupid KAD, I can't believe there's people out there that fall for these greedy, lazy people.

Ashley has had to clean up rice including vacuuming (gasp) and cook breakfast. She is now collapsed on coach looking exhausted. And I think that is all I can stand. 2 mins and 30 seconds.

I've been watching the Gardners since they announced their pregnancy so more than 3 years but up until recently I was a bit embarrassed to admit it to anyone (because I'm married but childless in my late 30's). Anyway, my sister has worked in child protection and child development for the last 18 years and today I finally showed her a vlog to get an opinion. She only watched about 4 minutes and she said they are very verbally delayed. And then she said what the fck is with their full diapers?! So sad. I bet she'll be addicted now, I likened it to a car crash that you can't look away from (or a train wreck unfolding)
