I think what irritated me the most was that Abby was obviously very excited and very forward with Ruby that she wanted to sign up quickly. The Ruby takes her sweet ass time, I honestly dont think she understands how to prioritize. I dont even know them and I was stressed about how long she was taking!

it's good that none of her other friends got in, but it was just annoying to see Ruby put it off when she knew Abby wanted it badly

I think it was a combination of the two. Ruby was definitely lollygagging around while they knew they were already late to register because of harp practice. The site may have still worked if she hadn't waited.

And then let's make sure to whip out the camera and put it in Abby's face to vlog her reaction to not getting into the camp that she had made such a big deal about getting in to. That would be the last thing I would think to do. I would have the decently to give Abby privacy and tell her without the camera rolling. But that's me. All Ruby thinks about is getting footage for the vlog. Abby sad and crying would make for views. It's all Ruby cares about.

I was incredibly angered at this point in the video. Not getting through to register is completely understandable, and I do believe that Ruby probably did all she could to try and help Abby-especially if all Abby's friends missed out as well.

What makes me mad is the whole aspect of the camera being there from the beginning. Maybe it's because I didn't grow up on Youtube, but if my parent had a camera in my face as I'm returning from school and knowingly anticipating something I would definitely assume they were trying to capture my reaction to GOOD news. I don't know any parent that loves to film their children receiving bad news..it seems slightly psychotic? And you can see that once Abby realises she isn't going she keeps looking toward the camera, probably trying not to cry. LET THIS KID CRY. She's old enough that her friends likely know of 8Passengers and probably watch the videos, so of course she doesn't want a video of her crying all over the internet. She obviously had feelings she needed to work through after that blow and the fact that she had to act for the '8Passengers Show' instead just drives me crazy.

I think being the middle child, with the younger kids throwing tantrums 24/7, has caused Abby to feel like she has to suppress her bad emotions a lot more, and the camera being in her face during those times cannot do anything but make that worse.

This is what I have to say about this vlog.

Comb your hair even if you are home all day or put it up.

Take those silly eyelashes off. You look ridicuious. It looks as if you have dead spiders on your eyes.

At least comb your mop when you’re going out with your husband. You are not a 3 year little girl anymore who doesn’t want to get her hair combed and throws a fit.

I just can’t believe that that so many people think that you’ Ruby and your ridiculous family are any kind of good examples.

it’s bad but I always assume her growth was stunted because of them being so poor when she was a baby. She probably didn’t get enough nutrients and still isn’t

Haven't watched today's vlog yet but I thought it was funny that I was just thinking to myself the other day how insufferable Shari is going to be once she has her license and starts driving on her own. She already has such an I'm-better-than-you attitude. Just imagine the saint she thinks she's going to be when she drives her siblings around.

The entire part with them in the car at the DMV was so bad. The entire conversation between Kevin and Sheri was so FAKE and so obvious it was all one big scripted scene in which they were acting it out. It did not come across as a real authentic conversation at all.
And I'm sure the DMV was just thrilled to see Ruby waltz in with camera's rolling. You know she didn't ask that guy working there for permission, she just shoved the camera in his face. You do not film at a place like that. She is so self-absorbed and doesn't give a crap about anyone else. I don't understand why she thinks it's okay to just put a camera in anyone's face without permission and put them on youtube. One of these day's, she is going to film someone who doesn't want to be filmed and she is going to learn the hard way.

Wasn't it Ruby who was filming Bonnie in the airport bathroom and a lady said "In the bathroom, really?". She really needs to learn where she shouldn't pull out a camera. She's lucky she didn't film a dmv worker in my area...they would've likely smacked the camera out of her hand if it was put on their faces.

Yeah, she said in one of the videos on her personal vlog channel that she is 4'11". Ruby and Kevin seem average height, right around 5'4" and 5'10" respectively, give or take an inch. I remember seeing them with the mom and dad from the Tannerites when they were all in Thailand, and Ruby was a couple of inches shorter than the mom, who has said in one of the Tannerite's videos that she is 5'7".

You don’t stop growing at 15. I grew from 5’2 to 5’3 between 16 and 18 after not having grown any from when I was 11 (when I had reached 5’2) I know this because I put 5’3 on my permit when I was 16 and then was surprised when I actually grew to 5’3. I’m pretty sure your height actually tapers out in your very early twenties.

growing any height past age 15 is VERY rare for girls. girls generally stop growing at around 14/15... while boys have a final growth spurt in their late teen years. I had a growth spurt between 11-12 and that was it.

Both my husband and I grew a 1/2 inch after we started dating. My girls both grew a 1 1/2 inched after they started their periods age 13. The pediatrician even predicted they both would do that!

I actually only grew about half an inch, but it’s still growth. I hit puberty really early at 8 and stopped growing at 11/12 myself. And most girls who hit puberty early end up shorter from what I’ve read. Then I grew half an inch between 16 and 18, which I hadn’t thought possible but my pediatrician and others’ I knew still said there was a possibility for growth. I didn’t mean in my initial post that Shari was actually going to grow more, just that the possibility was still there and that growth still happens for many people in that 15-20 range even if minimal and it shouldn’t be counted out as a possibility. I’m really interested to see where Abby, Julie and Eve end up in comparison to her height wise though.

Abby is about average height for a girl her age, so I'd guess she'll end up in the 5'2" to 5'4" range if she gets a decent growth spurt over the next two or three years. Meanwhile, Julie is 9 years old and already slightly taller than Abby. I'd guess she's going to be one of those taller, skinny girls. Probably ends up closer to Kevin in height, say 5'8" or so. Unless she's one of those rare girls that just keeps growing and ends up being six feet tall. I remember in a recent vlog that Ruby said she has to buy Julie new shoes every few months because she grows out of them so quickly.
