I don’t like my parents but compared to this, I’m actually grateful for some aspects of how they raised me. Good education, vaccines, ability to speak and read, I’m going to college, etc. These people are ridiculous.

@@jhutch1681 UK Government website says that although no cases of paralysis have been reported, there has been poliovirus detected in sewage in East London last year. There was subsequently a vaccination campaign for children aged 1-9 to help London catch up to the rest of the UK, as unfortunately the area has high levels of vaccine hesitancy. Anyway I believe that these parents are irresponsible for not vaccinating their kids without a proper reason. Children should also definitely be in some sort of schooling by age 5. It is undeniably necessary for social and cognitive development.

@@charlotteb4226 Everyone is entitled to their opinions and must do what feels right to them. Parents all have different ideas, comfort levels, concerns, strengths and weaknesses. I applaud anyone who is doing their best to make informed decisions, even if they are not the ones that I would make. Research and experience shows that some home educated children can excel beyond their schooled peers, but there is no magic formula for everyone. There are also schooled children who do well, and some who do not. It is responsible to consider risks and benefits for each unique circumstance even if the choices you make are not the popular ones.

They need to get some kind of nappy on that baby seeing as she just pissed on the edge of the rug like a puppy you'e just brought home 😑 Last I saw that boy was 8 years old and couldn't read, couldn't even write his own name. Hope he's given up the breastfeeding though, didn't see any of that, but I did see him bring his food into the corner and eat it on the floor, also like a dog.

@jhutch1681 Жыл бұрын

@@HZTenh17g That may be true of some people, but is an unfair comment in relation to this family. I have known many families who have raised their children by unconventional methods and the children are well spoken, adjusted, independent thinkers, intelligent, problem solvers and ambitious. Many universities actively recruit homeschoolers because they are most often curious, hardworking, confident, self starters.

@jhutch1681 Жыл бұрын

@@STRAWYB Happily, that's not how it works. Children are natural explorers with a thirst for knowledge. All they need is someone to give them exposure and help them find the answers. Before long, they learn to find answers for themselves and often excel beyond what would have been otherwise taught to them. 'A proper education' implies that schools always get it right, that everyone succeeds and no one fails, which is not the case. Neither is it easy to homeschool your children and parent them 24 /7. It takes a lot of dedication and sacrifice on the part of the parent.

I couldn’t go along with not vaccinating children. It’s such a cruel and reckless approach. But otherwise, I’d guess they’re great parents as they don’t work & dedicate all their time to their family life.
