      40% on fast food is insane behavior for anybody. This is just ridiculous and her not being able to stand is an excuse. I get that her mobility is limited but she’s not quadriplegic. If many people in wheelchairs can be independent she can throw some spaghetti on the stove or prepare cold meals at the table. She can sit at the table to prepare ingredients and literally stand up for the few minutes it takes to put a pot on the stove or grab plates. I’m surprised Caleb didn’t suggest desk jobs and especially remote jobs, because if standing is the issue, she can get something where she will spend most of her time sitting.

    -she has disability and military benefits
    -doesn’t take care of the kids
    -doesn’t cook
    -he takes care of all the bills
    -they’re in debt
    -flexes schooling without understanding it has amounted to nothing, and wants to go back despite lack of reasoning which will cause even more stress on the household
    ….she is 90% of the problem. The husbands attitude and passive nature on letting her do this to the family is 10% of the problem. I’d consider this to be abuse to both the kids and husband

Zero confidence they follow though, wife is relying on husband and handouts to do everything.

It matters about your love and connections, and the fact that you have someone who’s willing to propose to you and want to spend your life together, that’s all should matter

It's her.. her two children cannot eat thousands of dollars worth of food in a month. She is living her best life and making her family financially ruined in the process.

    You can tell she came here to paint herself in a good light the way she immediately took over the conversation. Except the numbers dont lie. She is draining their relationship dry. What she is doing is almost borderline financial abuse. Hopefully this is a wakeup call.
    Edit: She thinks she is going to get hired at google with a ux cert from an online school and the desire to not work... Holy moly the delusions she has. She describes her parents with absolute disdain yet has become exactly like them.

      Remove the words “almost borderline”. She has this dude by the balls and he knows it. She could easily just leave him, take a fat part of his paycheck and stuff, and take his children away if she wanted. Laws need to change to let the higher earning spouse draw a line and threaten to dump them if they don’t shape up.
      As for this guy, well, there’s beautiful women all over places like Southeast Asia and Latin America that would love to marry an American man who makes $83,000 a year at age 37. This woman doesn’t deserve him.

      ​@@nineteenfortyeightyeah there's a thing in UX right now where tons of under-qualified people are getting online certs (because colleges still haven't caught up with decent, consistent curriculum) and see it as an 'easy career change.'
      They are also seeing these 6 fig salaries at fortune 500 companies for the role and think they should get them off these online certs. There's a massive gap in the field between total newbies and people who have been doing UX since the digital revolution.
      To think she would go to a Google calibre company off that is truly delulu. She's about 10 years out from being qualified for that type of company, honestly. Even if she had that experience, Google and Apple get the cream of the crop designers, and to your point, the applicant pool is insanely competitive at either company.
      Even at entry level UX, this is not a person I would hire, she makes too many excuses. She wouldn't be able to collect data and analyze it without confirming her own biases.

    I sympathize with her wanting to be at home with her kids, but as a stay at home mom myself cooking and buying groceries is 50% of your job. It’s a huge part of keeping your family together among cleaning, organizing, doing activities, appointments, taking the dog for walks daily. I’m sure she’s doing her best but I can’t imagine buying *every single meal* out! That’s a bit ridiculous and seems her husband is just used to that being a “normal stay at home mom thing” when it’s certainly not.

Perhaps that’s why they are even on this show? Did you know that some people with PTSD, ADHD and/or depression are viewed as “lazy” because their brain works differently than other people’s?

They take it easy and live slow, less stress, and take a month of vacation in August. I studied abroad there and the traditional food ingredients and culture is really nice. A good healthcare system does not make people healthy. Rather healthy people make an affordable healthcare system. People - please love yourselves enough to take care of yourselves.

I actually sat down with my fiancée because we both watch your RUclips channel and actually tell her look we can’t keep going down a crazy path we got to start now. I’m in my 30s and she is 25 so still young but I made a budget for the first time just to see where we are at since we moved for my job and I was angry at myself and scared about her debts so I actually sat down made the monthly pie chart and said we can’t do this anymore no more eating spending nothing. I’m currently starting to pay off the credit cards which isn’t a lot but still with interest enough for me to say time to go and cancel them because we aren’t credit card people. Luckily it’s two but we have nothing in collections but I’m glad to say we will pay it off in about 1.3 once she gets a full time 30 hours a week job instead of part time. So thanks for helping my fiancé understand that we needed this RUclips channel to realize we ain’t no better then the people on this show.

    She can get a comfortable office chair at the dining table, and prep most of her food there. She can buy prepared meals at Costco or the grocery stores. A Costco rotisserie chicken is $5 and can quickly be made into several meals for the week. There are tons of youtube channels for shopping and cooking on a budget, such as, Dining on a dime, Fit frugal mom, and See Mindy Mom.
    She can batch cook. This week I cooked an enormous pot of spaghetti sauce and then another night, chili beans. I freeze them into family sized portions and have about 12 extra nights of meals in the freezer. It takes very little extra work to increase the size when making chili or spaghetti sauce, and and saves time on dishes and cooking in the future.
    She can sit at the table and make a loaf of p&j for lunches to freeze. It just goes on and on what can be done easily and ahead for her busy or bad pain nights. I hope she sees this as an encouragement that she can do theses things. Bad habits take work to change, but it can be done.

    She would rather get taxpayers to pay her rent than get off her ass and pay her own rent.
    I was a single parent and paid all my bills. Not once did I consider letting my neighbours who pay tax pay to keep a roof over my children's rent.
    My man died, and I was left with 4 kids. I fed them and put the clothes on their back.
    Under no circumstances would I let others pay for my children.
    Absolutely shocking!!!

      "I can't stand for more than an hour at a time" Well good because unless you work in a kitchen professionally you never will cooking. Most meals don't even take 30 min of standing even when you are learning. I pick our recipes to try and basically teach myself with them. As time has gone on I have gotten so much better and there are tons of things I can make with only 10 min of actual work, 20 min can get the food made and everything fully cleaned up easily. Its all the same excuse "groceries cost the same as eating out" no they don't "it takes so long to cook" no it really doesn't "I don't know what to cook" welcome to this amazing thing called the internet with billions of recipes to satisfy every kind of diet and preference imaginable "I don't have time to do that" The excuses just never end.
