- The Resilient Jenkins: TIKTOK'S MOST TOXIC FAMILY VLOGGERS
Hey everyone! Today we are taking a look into the Resilient Jenkins tiktok account - aka tiktok's worst grifter couple. They are probably the most controversial family online right now, so we are going to look at all the issues surrounding them!

I realized at around the 36 min mark i accidentally have MsRazzleDazzle video playing a second time - It is being trimmed out but for the next few hours while I let it load you may have to skip ahead to not hear it twice! Sorry about that!! Commentary resumes at 38:22
Seems like Stephanie has some other deeper issue with him working full time. I wouldn’t be shocked if it were totally something stupid. The years of it all is so bizarre.
Arlita seems like such a good and kind mom who really puts her son first. So sad for her son to not know his father but can see him being a dad to other kids online.
I agree she does! It is so sad, but i'm glad that he has such a strong and level headed mother
Controversial opinion, but in some cases no father/not knowing the father can be better for the child than a father who is actively harmful.
I'm so glad that at least the one kid is loved and has kind adults like Arlita and the grandparents, uncles and aunties she mentioned
@@squash6497 agreed, i think in this instance it may be for the best which is sad but at the same time, Arlita's son gets to live in a healthy happy home, surrounded by love which is what matters most!
What I don’t understand about the “the kids destroyed their beds” defense is that Stephanie said in a previous video that tehy taught their kids to take good care of their stuff, but then they turn around and claim that their kids are the Hulk and ripped up their sheets and bent the bed frames
oh such a good point! I agree it is SO contradictory!
Poor people should be able to spend their limited disposable income on nice things, but responsible parents know income isn't disposable until all your kids are met which includes laundry costs and lice treatments to keep your kids (and 4 cats) clean. This surely strays into neglect, it's not that they are unable to earn more money or be better parents it's that they don't want to. They want internet fame and pity donations
okay yes 100%, you put this perfectly!! I have no issue with people spending their disposable income on things they enjoy - no matter their tax bracket, everyone should get to enjoy life. But you are right, income shouldn't be seen as 'disposable' until AFTER everyones needs - especially their kids and pets - are met!
What the heck is going on that their kids are breaking, ripping, and ruining their beds and bedding? That is bizarre behavior, especially when mom is home with them all day. Destructive kids are usually bored kids.
right?! thats what i want to know. And thats such a good point - it definitely is a sign they are bored and potentially not being engaged with enough
I think the parents are lying and just pretending that the kids had beds
Bored? No, it's a sign of trauma response...something is crazy wrong in that household.
There's nowhere for them to play. They're crammed into a tiny apartment. Also don't let them fool you. They used the money that was sent by followers to buy themselves a large flatscreen tv instead of new matresses for the kids. She also loves to dry beg & say like Ohhh this blender doesn't do the best job, but it will do hoping someone will send them a new expensive juicer to make juices with.
@@victoriaskully i wondered that myself!! No matter what it looks awful, but I could see them not having the foresight to realize that looks just as bad, and saying they broke the beds to justify the kids not having beds now when they never did.
As a mom I have trouble buying myself bigger items. I needed a new bed for months, and I didn’t immediately get one even though I needed one. But if my daughter needed a new bed I wouldn’t hesitate and get her one as soon as possible! That’s just how things work!
I'm sorry, everything is so unaffordable now it shouldn't have to be like that but you are 100% doing it right! Your daughter is lucky to have you
Thank you for that! I have gotten a new bed but had to spend the time to save up etc. it is hard out there!!
My bed is like 16 yrs old, my son got a new truck bed a couple months ago because he loves cars and my daughter has a newer unicorn bed, exactly everything they say is unbelievably entitled.
I’ve never heard people call it a “W2 job”…
Isn’t just…a JOB?
As a Canadian I have used the term "T4 job" which I think is our equivalent (?), as I also work as an independent contractor (tutor/yoga instructor)
People who don’t usually work “normal” salary or hourly jobs call it this. Usually those who look down on that top of work lol
That’s what I was confused about. “I don’t want a w2 job” so.. you don’t want a job.. also DoorDash I think gives out w2 from what I know and you have to give them money to access it (I think I could be wrong) like ??
They call it that because his wages will be garnished if he had one
@@lithijohnston3222
Jobs such as Door Dash classify their drivers as "independent contractors". They do not withhold taxes. (Unless things have changed in recent years). Therefore, taxes must be paid at the end of the year. I'm thinking this guy is working such jobs, to avoid paying child support & taxes.
If people have “judged you all your life”…. It’s time to look in the mirror.
veryyyy true. I feel like anyone who says that always has a victim mentality but really its just total lack of accountability and never being honest with themselves..
Why can’t she work the opposite hours as him? My husband and I both work and no one else raises our kids. They really think they are the only ones in the world with kids??
Because People made them famous for being lazy and now they are riding the TikTok wave of fame getting everything sent to them. He owes child support for a previous child he doesn't see so he refuses to get a job and work b/c the money will be taken from his paycheck. She knows and supports this. She is quite literally begging for ring lights, tripods, etc. A whole Amazon wishlist full of stuff for her & her husband so she can exploit her kids to make money. Its working b/c people are hate watching and commenting.
I think she could, they just both don't want to work 🥲
Same. She said she has insomnia I was thinking you should be WORKING second shift like me. 😂
@@KylaJames lol true! I should have said “why doesn’t she work opposite hours” lol
To be fair to everybody else on this one (not them, they're making choices) but working opposite shifts isn't always the best/most functional solution because commute times and start/finish times. My sister and her husband did this for a while and it was a *bigger* pain in the butt than the money was worth unless you have an older-kid who can be home alone for like, 2-3 hours a day
People give beds away for free everyday! Theres simply no excuse not to at least have a mattress for those kids
SO true, didn't even think of that but most towns have 'buy nothing' groups! I know in my area there are multiple groups like that.
Used beds/mattresses can have some health and safety concerns (not that this seems to stop them), but in the context of the whole picture and the parents behaviour, yikes.
I got a dollar and 50 cent raise after a year of working and I was pretty happy w that. I can only imagine a 4 dollar raise, imagine the second year?
right?! It seems wild to complain about that raise, especially after admitting that he was having attendance issues and wasn't going to work when he should be. Sounds to me like they were more than generous.
A FOUR DOLLAR RAISE?? Unheard of in the US today.
Him naming off all of those jobs just tells me he left a job as soon as one wage garnishment happened.
So true. Not to mention having all those jobs isn’t the flex he thinks it is. To any future employer that just makes him look flaky and unreliable.
The level of entitlement of that guy when talking about his job history is astounding. Listing out your multiple jobs like it means you have all this experience and are over qualified to work period… when really it’s just a red flag with that kind of job history. I would for sure be starting someone out at a low wage that came to me with that list …and wait to prove them selves before increasing their wage. Calling off because you weren’t given a raise and then EXPECTING a raise? I can’t even believe this is real.
veryyy true, working so many jobs over a seemingly short-ish period of time is not a flex. Not to mention HE GOT A RAISE EVEN?!?!?! like it just wasnt as much as he wanted, but honestly it was more than he even deserved! I feel they were veryyy generous
As someone who has worked retail for 15 years, it is backbreaking nowadays because the hours suck and people suck. It's draining work. And it depends on what retail job you have to because Walmart is different from like a store in a mall or something. That being said a $4 raise is insanely high raise in a year. He is terrible at stability even when he has all these kids to feed and house. Dude needs to get his shit together for his kids.
Fair yes! I work retail and I agree it is still hard, I always say when influencers are complaining about their job that as someone who does both RUclips and retail, my retail job is 100% harder! I think I mainly just have a problem with this specific man using that as an excuse not to work when his kids clearly need him to, but he doesn’t want to because he wants to avoid paying child support that he rightfully owes. If I can work a retail job there is no reason he can’t when he is able to, just opting not to!!
4:08 I always hated hearing her say this. You don't need to live through a bad experience to know it's bad. I don't have to live in a too-small apartment to know that it is unsafe for that many people and pets to live there. You can advocate for better living conditions without having to live through them.
I feel like most caring parents would let the kids have the bed and them sleep on the couch or floor.
Such a good point! I agree, and its interesting that she doesnt get (or is being willfully ignorant) that people aren't just senselessly judging her living situation. If they were working hard and fell on hard times but were doing everything they could, and making the home as safe and comfortable as possible for the kids - ie. no mess and moldy laundry, the kids get the bedroom, they sold the ps 5 - people would not be judging and would be even MORE willing to help them out. The issue that they will never address is that they dont want to work, dont take care of the house, wont make sacrifices for the kids and are even bringing another baby into the situation.
I think it's...interesting that he blames work for his heart condition when there's been stories about his substance abuse. One of his drugs of choice causes severe heart problems...so you don't get to blame "overworking" for that. It's consequences for your previous actions, unfortunately.
Wow i didnt even really know much about the substance issues, but agreed that sounds like it would play more of a part than working retail or pumping gas..
She is that type of woman who will always put her man over her kids. Hence why she has every excuse under the sun for why he can't work a real job. She chose this! She left her mom's 3 BR apartment to be with him in his 1 BR. She is a fool and I have nothing but contempt for her.
Very true, I’ve seen people on TikTok point that out too. I can’t imagine defending him saying he doesn’t want to work etc.
I have 3 kids under 6. When my two oldest were 3 & 4 they had those cheaper plastic toddler beds from Walmart. I bought them because they were affordable my son got a Spider-Man and and my daughter a pink princess one and I knew they would grow out of them quickly. A week in my son broke the tent part and my daughter broke her princess canopy. They are kids what do you expect? We have always made sure our kids have beds to sleep in and food in their belly. When we had our first two we were working on a very limited income. As parents we do what we have to do to make sure our little ones are comfortable at least you should. The excuse she uses is not ok!
My 3 cats live better than those kids do
LOL as they should 👑🐈
That manchild screwed up when he ruined his relationship with his first sons Momma. She seems awesome! I bet she's a super mom! I hope her son is able to meet his siblings some day. I bet he never ever deserved her!!!!!! Arlita is Lucky she dodged this dude when she did.
100% agreed she dodged a bullet, and it absolutely sucks that her son doesn't have his father in his life, but Arlita is surely better off not being with him. I hope the siblings can meet one day - maybe when they are older and can do so without the parents.
We need to stop speaking about them, hate watching, commenting & they will go away. They have gotten richer since more creators have decided to cover them & give them recognition. I understand they're an easy family to talk about because they're enraging but, they're now banking on hate views and they know it.
Very true, its a fine line between wanting to talk about it and hopefully have something done but then at the same time negative attention is still attention on them. Their views already do seem to be going down since I was a bit late on posting this - they get around 100k-400k which is still a lot but they were getting millions. I think tiktok should take the account down since they are exploiting their kids awful living situation for money.
I love young people. "Text book grifters." I love it.😂😂😂😂
This family is just awful. I don’t have kids however in any case the children should come first.
I'm in the same boat, don't have kids yet myself but even still its clear to see how much is wrong with the picture!
when they first posted they had less than 5k followers, the fact that the channel has grown is so disturbing....these people need to be stopped.
Agreed, it really sucks that any attention even negative attention is good for them. I definitely think they know that and try to play into it for views
Wait, so they teach their kids to respect their possessions but the kids also ripped apart whole @ss beds?!?! 😂😂😂
ahahahah thats the story 🤣
RIP AND TEAR UNTIL IT IS DONE.
But for real this is just text book irresponsibly. If you are going to have a bunch of kids you need to be able to provide, and this family is not providing.
They’re going to need more than an Amazon Wishlist…
youre the only one who will appreciate that meme. And agreed!! amazon wishlist yet neither of them want to work...
Not a Kyla James video about terrible TikTok parents making me bite the bullet and start looking for a second job 😆. Honestly some great insight, and eye opening that in some ways I too was wanting to avoid work even though I’m actively in an office job. This guy thinks he deserves the world, though isn’t willing to put in the work to make sure he can support his family; at the same time I think I deserve more at my current job, but when struggling financially because it’s only part time I’m unwilling to just do what needs to be done and look for income elsewhere.
It’s totally valid to think you deserve more - I actually feel like these days with the rising cost of living most people deserve more than they get! But I think it’s huge you decided to look for additional income, your future self will thank you! I hope it all goes well!
I hate that they’re making money from being horrible, narcissistic parents, I hope his first baby mama gets ALL the money she’s owed and then some.
Agreed! Hopefully the TikTok income can be used towards paying her back if he continues to refuse to work
I just feel sad for the resilient jenkins’ neighbors
I wonder what they think of it all honestly!
Wait, a $500 hair dryer? Why does that even exist?
Because Dyson makes it
Same reason 500$ makeup and clothes exist. Big brand, and it probably is made with very pricey material or items. Which is why they can hike the price up because there's a few specks of gold or something on it. 😭
It's the best that kids hear it from them than others
Let me know if you've been seeing all the talk surrounding them & your thoughts!
Arlita seems like a really thoughtful and caring mom. She has a tough line to walk and I’m wishing all the love in the world to her and all the kids in this situation.
Lmao so unexpected when the rip and tear thing came up, gave me a good laugh 😂
ahahahah so glad someone enjoyed it 🤣
This is my first time watching one of your vids- I'm 13 seconds in and I have to say that you remind me of a Renaissance painting, I can't remember the name of it, but you two look EXACTLY ALIKE ❤❤❤
Only positive thing I can think of besides the that deadbeat's eldest son not being exposed to his neglect is that no other deadbeats have come out to support his behavior.
He’s rather not work at all than being in money for his family. Maybe they won’t increase his pay because he wasn’t performing smh
There’s one reason the parents are in the room and that’s because the husband or boyfriend wants to be able to have a place to go to play video games undisturbed
4 dollar increase? In the uk I'd be surprised if I wouldn't get a rise at all if it wasn't for the national living wage. Next year I'll get an extra 77p an hour. Its pretty hard to find a wage higher unless you're skilled in certain field. So, yes I earn £11.44p and hour work hard for that but I'm proud to say I can put fppd on the table and sometimes afford nice things.
right i was blown away too!! pretty much unheard of here as well, especially after 1 year.
I’m enjoying your videos very much.
I wish you continued growth.
Same!
Thank you so much! That is so kind
15:45 when Andrew Jenkins sees this stuff (as of now that family has been evicted from their 1 bedroom hovel) is he not ashamed? At all?? My guess is that his addiction keeps him from facing reality
Desiray sounds like she needs a care provider honestly.
Not Stephanie talking trash about the other baby mama drinking while pregnant when she herself openly smoked pot her entire pregnancy!! Who is she to throw stones when she lives in a glass shoebox
I actually don’t believe that they want more for their kids cuz if they did she wouldn’t be having more & he wouldn’t have left a FULL TIME job making $24/hr. Just that job could’ve been there way out. That’s about $3k/mo, they’re not married, she’s absolutely on DSS. If you wanted more for your kids you’d realize every additional kid you add is stealing from them. If you wanted more then they’d be sleeping in the bedroom with a bed & you’d be sleeping in the LR on something else because you’d know YOU made the choice to have them & keep having them. A way out isn’t exploiting the traumatic situation your kids are in. She said her kids have had lice & fleas for YEARS!! Idk how their school hasn’t reported them if they’re old enough to be in school. This is dangerous to their health. If you wanted one job to pay you enough you’d say ok, I’m gonna go back to school & THEN we’ll have more kids. You need a certification for HVAC & I have a couple guy friends that have done that for 5 and 10 years, are married, have kids, one is the sole provider, they have homes, two cars & a decent life. He worked up to that for a few years & makes rly good money now which he could’ve/could do too. He. Is. LAZYYYY!! and entitled bad combo. It’s gross they’re bringing more kids into this situation. I also wouldn’t be buying stuff for people that weren’t even making the slightest attempt to work on things themselves… I understand why people are doing it cuz they feel heartbroken for the kids.
very true. Even with the child support he owes, he's saying he owes $6k - at his $24/hour job that probably wouldn't have even taken that long to pay off and if he was paying when he was supposed to would probably be a pretty manageable amount. They are just irresponsible and entitled. I agree i wouldn't be buying them stuff knowing the parents just don't want to work and feel like they deserve to just do tiktok and have things bought for them, but like you said I am glad for the kids sake that people have purchased them things.
I saw my aunt and uncle struggle financially before they were able to get a bigger place. They lived in a small 1 bedroom apartment. In total, there were originally 4 people living in a 1 bedroom place. My aunt was going through pre menopause, and she got pregnant unintentionally in her 40's. For 5 more years they lived in that 1 bedroom apartment. The 2 girls shared the 1 room while the living room was converted to sleeping area for both parents and the 1 boy. The dad worked 2 jobs, 1 day job and any job he could work after is 1st job. My mom stayed home and took care of the kids and took them to and from school and she took care of her household. To accommodate for their son not having his own space, they got him a ps2 and a handheld game boy, and he had to share his scooter and outside toys with the girls. He had his own bike though. It took them a good 5 years to get a 3 bedroom place with plenty of space for everyone. The parents got their own room, the girls still shared a room and the boy had his own room. I think it's okay to struggle in the beginning, but to continue to struggle with 4+ children and them in the living room (not to mention the mom blames them for "breaking" things) is sad. It's like once the kids outgrow their baby and toddler stage, the mom brings a new one. I can't.
Why are people so invested in other people's lives? Idc if they post online or not! Judge and you will be judged!
The mother of the son he has with him apparently made no effort to get the child until he was part of a viral family. Hmmm.
Agreed, definitely more sus on her part. I can see why people are raising an eyebrow at her.
You did a perfect job 👏 👌 🙌 I agree with literally everything you said . ❤
I feel like since their living/sleeping arrangements drive so much engagement to their TikTok, they're going to be less motivated to make changes to fix it. Maybe they feel like it's all for the good of their children in the end but still doesn't make it ok at all
Unfortunately you are probably right, the attention and views they've gotten from the videos are probably making them less likely to fix the situation asap. Agreed - they may feel like its for the best (get more money first) but ultimately it isnt better, and is still harmful to the kids emotionally.
I agree i would have given the bedroom to my children and instead of a queen size bed and that PS5 i would have bought wood and built ours and the kids bunk beds myself, especially if you already have the memory foam mattresses. And plus you'd know they're built solid so the kids wouldn't be able to break them down...
38:27 omg this is giving Get out vibes
I don't believe there ever was a mattress. But they do have cats, and they do claw at things. I would believe the cats destroyed the beds more than children
I’m sorry, but if you haven’t done a few consistent months of some sort of construction, farming, plumbing, city cleanup, waste etc, then you don’t get to claim “backing breaking work”. Even I have worked residential construction with my step dad during the summer and still go an help my husband with remodels (which is so much worse with demo especially…the lived in aspect makes it gross). Working, in general, is taxing on most people. That’s true, but not a single one of those is killing his body. What? He broke a sweat or two while washing windows and tires?? 😂😂😂🤦🏼♀️
It sucks because people bought them stuff to help their kids and they 100% bet on that happening. Everyone struggles because they don’t want to see the kids suffer, but people truly need to stop!! Look at what they did with all of those beds. They still kept them IN THE LIVING-ROOM AND DINING ROOM, and don’t even finish building one of them! It’s disgusting! I’m not worried about the aesthetics of if, I’m wondering why mom and dad get the luxury of a cozy and private bedroom? Why can’t they use the living room for that and ask for a partition wall? They sick, because we know this is strictly to have intimate time, smoke their stuff, and just tune the kids out.
100%!! when he said 'working to the bone' and then followed up with retail i was actually shocked lol. I work retail... its far from back breaking lol. and i agree, its sad that them being bought stuff is just further 'proof' to them that they dont need to work.
Drew doesnt have a "W-2" job" because that would mean garnishments would actually come out of his check. They can't garnish a gig job like door dash. He should have a regular job and do the gig job for extra cash. In my state child support is based on the income of both parents as if the family has never dissolved ie my ex worked higher paying jobs than I and is responsible for 80% of the medical bills that aren't covered by insurance (that i carry on my kids). They add incomes together and deduct a standard ampunt and bare it on that and the number of children it is due to support. I had to garnish my ex's income because he wasn't paying as agreed and also stopped working often on purpose. He was threatened with jail or probation ans that has since changed. So a "W-2 job" is not wanted because he would actually have to pay for the other child and doesn't want to do that obviously if he did he would have a normal "W-2 job" to support them. Also i geel like he's owed money from this account so that till should be considered in his income towards child support. I heard that he was grimy about how he got the son he has in his care (on TT from an ex of course who also said she was pregnant by him but decided she couldn't have the child because she just had one and they weren't financially able).
Love how everyone they ain’t doin it for the money and they are all concerned for their kid but here is my Venmo. Stop it. If you wanted to protect your kid from the situation you wouldn’t be on TikTok announcing his presence in the world. You’re just mad because you want some of that money too.
They’re bums. You must be too to defend it 😂
@ I wasn’t defending it? Perhaps you need work on reading comprehension.
Agreed, posting the kids is unsafe and also not considerate at all of their mental health or how having allll of this aired out online will make them feel once theyre older.
Now, these kinds of vloggers are truely in the depths of the quagmire when it comes to morality, exploiting their children and child abuse for money. There is also imo a level of immorality in monetising the exposure of this. In effect, these creators are also makimg money from the exploitation of the abuse these children are experiencing- frequentlybdone under the guise of " awareness".
I missed uuuuuuu ❤❤❤❤❤
hiii thank you for being here! ❤
I wish you tube was your job :( ❤ fingers crossed. U the best ❤❤❤❤
Get em❤
always 😈
Those peole are bound to be raking it in why dont they rent somewhere better
I’m not sure honestly. Maybe they’re waiting to make more/ make sure it’s consistent but idk. I also think the living situation is bringing them more views and money and they probably don’t want to lose that element of their content.
@calebhammer needs to get them on his show!!!
